Mobile Portal Development
The problem
Mobile Web UIs are still affected by ideas that were common in the WAP days and should now be obsolete Lowest common denominator
Low CSS and xHTML support by devices
No JavaScript
Assuming that High-end devices can and should handle the complete version of the Website
These obsolete ideas are mostly reflected in: thin, textual and non-attractive mobile websites
Not utilizing UI functionality like JS and Touch screens
Our solution
Create Mobile Websites with rich, attractive and versatile UI/UX
Taking into consideration the abilities of low, mid and high-end devices
UI design that is guided by the highest common denominator, and not by the lowest
3-Tier UI/UX architecture that allows Mobile Websites to fully utilize mobile device capabilities
Provide the right platform to move to the future of mobile services
