Bitstream Adds Full Java Support
Thunderhawk 2.1 Pocket PC Edition Enables Applets

Digg This!

Bitstream Inc. has announced the addition of full Java support to ThunderHawk 2.1 Pocket PC Edition, which provides enterprise clients and end users with a familiar, secure desktop browsing experience on mobile devices. New users can test the software by downloading a 30-day free trial edition, and current ThunderHawk subscribers can download the ThunderHawk 2.1 update.

While most mobile browsers provide limited Java support, ThunderHawk is the only wireless Web browser that displays full HTML pages while offering desktop-level Java 1.5.0 capabilities, Bitstream says. Subscribers can run Java applets on a Pocket PC using ThunderHawk, and the applets will behave on the mobile device just as they do on the desktop.

ThunderHawk 2.1 allows enterprise clients and end users to:

  • Read dynamic news feeds, track weather patterns, and view stock quotes and sports scores in real time.
  • Access the corporate database to view contacts and update information on the go.
  • Make financial calculations or apply for a loan at online banking, real estate, insurance, and retirement planning Web sites.
  • See how a new vehicle will look in a different color, or test numerous other options that can be previewed over the Web.
  • Access more interactive Web site content and applications faster than is possible with other mobile browsers.

"Robust Java support was one of the top requests from both ThunderHawk subscribers and enterprise clients," said Anna Chagnon, President and Chief Executive Officer at Bitstream. "ThunderHawk subscribers already expect seamless navigation, great speed and the ability to find and read information quickly when browsing with ThunderHawk, and now they can also take advantage of the interactive functionality that only full Java support provides."
