Zi Corporation, a leading provider of intelligent interface solutions, today announced a new version of its award-winning search and discovery engine, Qix(TM), will be launched at the 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona, February 12 - 15. Qix for Windows Mobile 5 (WM5) is now available for operator deployment.
It is expected that 30 million Windows Mobile Smartphones will ship in 2007 around the globe based on published figures by RBC Capital Markets on Microsoft. Zi expects to extend support to Windows Mobile 6 by the end of the year.
"This is a significant step forward for Qix technology," Milos Djokovic said. "Qix now supports the two most important platforms in the Smartphone market today and this launch is aligned with the company's strategy to enable immediate deployment of Qix."
Qix is a revolutionary search and discovery engine that enables quick and easy use of a mobile phone's applications and services. It allows users to access the full range of phone features simply and intuitively, all without having to remember where or how to locate them. This simplicity motivates users to find and use revenue-producing features more often. Qix complements standard mobile search products.
Demonstration versions of Qix for WM5 are available on HTC Qtek 8300 handsets.
Zi Corporation will be at 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona, Spain from February 12 - 15 at Stand C58, Hall 2. To make an appointment please contact Brian Dolby at +44(0)115 948 6901 or email brian@gbcspr.com.
