Kyocera teams with Opera on browser handsetsBy Anthony Newman, Wednesday 3 March 2004
New handsets have browsing as primary feature, plan to allow full web access anywhere.

Opera Software today revealed the first result of its cooperation with Kyocera to the Chinese market. Kyocera's manufactured ZTE V91 and Lucent LU PS-900 are the first handsets in the upcoming new generation of browser-centric phones where access to the full Internet is the device's key feature. These devices are designed from the ground up to allow for a great Internet experience, including a high-quality screen and an Opera-branded softkey that easily brings users online for Web surfing.

The PS900 is web-oriented
The delivery of Opera in the V91 and PS-900 features the latest in Opera's browser development, Opera 7. This ensures the highest performance with added speed and the most advanced standards support available.

Opera supports HTML 4.01, xHTML 1.1, WML 1.3 and 2.0, XML, CSS 1, 2 and mobile. Graphics types supported include GIF, JPEG, BMP, PNG and ICO. No information was available regarding support for Java, JavaScript, FTP support and certain other features available in the desktop versions of Opera 7, which is available on multiple platforms.

"There is one basic reason why WAP has failed and that is because there is simply not enough content available for the end users. The users want content and they want this easily accessible," says Lars Boilesen, executive vice president sales and distribution. "Now they can get the full Internet content on their mobile and exactly as easily accessible as on their PC. By continuously focusing on usability and innovation, Opera signals to millions of people how the full Internet can be enjoyed to the max on small screens."

Both the V91 and PS-900 run on Opera's new port to the Itron operating system. The devices are currently on sale in China, and other Asian countries may soon follow.

An additional high-resolution photo of the Lucent LU PS-900 is available on the following page.
