New service promises to let little mobiles out onto the big wide web by refining content for the small screen.
Surerange Analysis, based in the UK, have just announced MobileClipper, an internet service allowing users to create personalised clips of web pages that can then be viewed on their mobile phones.
MobileClipper is designed to grab news, sports results, weather, flight information and other such useful snippets for use on the move via a phone's WAP or mobile web browser. It's also aimed at companies for clipping productivity data such as address books, delivery data and so on.
The application is designed to address the perennial problem of mobile devices - smaller screens. Many web sites are a nightmare to view and navigate on screens running at less than VGA resolution, into which category mobile phones definitely fall.
Compatible devices include the majority of currently-available devices, including those based on Microsoft's Windows Mobile for Pocket PC and Smartphone, Palm OS devices, Sony Ericsson's UIQ handhelds and devices from Nokia, Motorola, Siemens, Panasonic and Sanyo.
MobileClipper, which is implemented using Microsoft's mobile .NET technologies, is available on a personal subscription at $19.99 USD per year, while business subscriptions are also available.
