BROADBEAM ANNOUNCES DEVELOPER CONTEST CO-SPONSORED BY WIRELESS WEEK
Professionals and Students Have Opportunity to Develop Robust Mobile
Applications with Broadbeam's New Mobile Solutions System(tm)
Cranbury, NJ, April 3, 2003 -- Broadbeam Corporation, a company with more
than 10 years of expertise in developing mission-critical mobile solutions
for enterprise customers, announces the first Broadbeam Developer Contest.
Co-sponsored by Wireless Week, the contest is open to professionals and
students who use Broadbeam's Mobile Solutions System (MSS) to develop mobile
applications using Pocket PCs. Entries are being accepted now through
Friday, May 30.
American Express Gift Checks will be rewarded to the top three developers in
each category in increments of $2,500, $1,000 and $500, respectively.
"The Broadbeam Developer Contest is designed to stimulate and reward
outstanding mobile development," said Linda Everk, Executive Director,
Marketing, Broadbeam Corporation. "We look forward to seeing the types of
applications that professional and student developers choose to create with
MSS, which offers the ability to rapidly design, develop and deploy a mobile
solution."
One of the key components of MSS is the Mobile Development Environment
(MDE), a powerful development environment that generates code automatically
to the server and client via an intuitive, user-friendly graphical user
interface (GUI) in both Java and Microsoft environments.
At the conclusion of the contest, professional and student applications will
be judged in separate categories by a panel consisting of representatives
from Broadbeam, Wireless Week, members of the developer community, vendors
and additional media outlets. The winning applications will be chosen based
on criteria approved by the panel of judges, which will include the
complexity, utility, usability and originality of each solution.
Complete contest details including guidelines, entry forms and support
materials are available at www.broadbeam.com/contest.
