NetFront targets embedded devices such as mobile phones, handhelds, automobile telematics systems, and digital televisions.
Access claims that it helped to define and develop the Compact HTML protocol for NTT DoCoMo's highly successful i-mode service, and that its NetFront browser enjoys over 80% market share of the i-mode browser market -- and 100% market share of NTT DoCoMo's 3G FOMA service, the first 3G service launched anywhere in the world.
The company says its NetFront technology has been deployed in Internet solutions from many of the world's leading technology companies including Adobe, Alpine, AT&T Wireless, China Mobile, China Unicom, Handspring, Hutchinson 3G Group, IBM, KDDI, NEC, NTT DoCoMo, PalmSource, Samsung, Sharp, Sony, and more.
Access says NetFront supports Windows Mobile, PalmOS, Linux, and Symbian embedded OSes, supports WAP2.0 and the latest W3C specifications, and offers unique technologies like "Smart-Fit", that intelligently formats Web pages to fit the horizontal width of mobile screens.
