Zi Corporation, a provider of intelligent interface solutions, Thursday announced that its advanced eZiText technology is now pre-integrated and available to Series 60 licensees worldwide. With this Series 60 Platform announcement, Zi is now pre-integrated on all the major operating system platforms for mobile phones. It further strengthens the profile of Zi's expanding presence in the global wireless market. Series 60 licensees will be able to license eZiText directly from Zi. Series 60 Platform is developed by Nokia, and it is the world's leading smartphone platform, with millions of devices already in the market. The platform is noted for its data capabilities and extensive feature set. With the pre-integration of eZiText, licensees of the Series 60 Platform now have the option to use eZiText’s core capabilities in all supported languages and benefit from minimal integration effort and faster time-to-market. Through eZiText’s robust Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), licensees will also be able to customize and enhance the eZiText input experience to add features or create differentiation. An eZiText Front End Processor (FEP) is also now available to manufacturers through Zi. The FEP is a fully developed user interface that manages the entire text input interface and display of eZiText on the Series 60 Platform.
