Calling all Nokia & Symbian geniuses: Am I wrong?
The service is currently integrated into Vodafone live for Spanish customers. But anyone can point their browser at Betavine.net and get downloading.
We're even drinking our own kool-aid by using it to promote our branded applications.
Applications are really where it's at. We're always going to have some premium apps which we fully support, but we know that letting bedroom developers and other 3rd parties run wild is the best way to create a thriving ecosystem.
The only way we can make the mobile web a success is by being open. Open protocols, open ideas, open development and, most of all, open minded.
Betavine has been around for a while - what has come out of it that's been picked up by VF operators around the world? i.e. is it working?
/m
We have picked up designs for our new site - see http://www.betavine.net/bvportal/web/guest/aboutus
Also, as I said before, Vodafone Spain now links directly to the Spanish version of betavine.mobi meaning these developers get exposed to a much larger audience.
An important point that too many geeks forget!
