ACCESS and Bytemobile Join Forces to Enhance Web Browsing on Mobile Devices
"ACCESS CO., LTD. and Bytemobile, Inc. today announced a global partnership to co-develop and market solutions, which will dramatically improve the Web browsing experience for mobile devices. Under the agreement, the two companies will work together to integrate Bytemobile�s embedded browser optimization (EBO) technology with the award-winning ACCESS NetFront� Browser and NetFront� Mobile Client Suite (NMCS). The combined solution will allow for faster full Internet page downloads on smartphones and feature phones, and transparently improve download performance by up to 4x over existing technologies on most wireless networks. The optimized solution will benefit network operators, as well as their customers, by reducing data volumes and improving bandwidth efficiencies, in addition to enhancing the overall browsing experience for end users."
It's no secret that web browsing on Pocket PCs and Smartphones still leaves a lot to be desired, so let's hope that the new version of NetFront that ACCESS and Bytemobile have up their sleeves breathes new life into the way we visit our favourite sites.

Unless Netfront can speed up considerably it will never approach the popularity of Opera. Personally I like Netfront's display better than Opera but it takes far too long to display web pages and I rarely use it anymore.
