Spb Software, a worldwide leading developer of Windows Mobile-based applications, announced the release of its Spb Wallet 2.0, meant for both WinMo and Symbian-based smartphones, while also planning to launch an iPhone/iPod version on Apple Stores in the near future. The software solution comes as a secure repository for users' valuable private information.

It comes both for non- and touchscreen WM-based handsets and for Symbian Series 60 smartphones (including Nokia 5800 touchscreen), and it will become available as a version for Apple's iPhone and iPod, as well as a desktop component. The multiplatform support the Spb Wallet comes with offers users a way to keep data safe, while also being able to swap phones or mobile platforms.

Spb moved to the new multiplatform approach in the development of its product in an attempt to strengthen even more its position as a partner to mobile network carriers. “The Windows Mobile platform will always stay our primary focus,” stated Vassili Philippov, Spb Software COO. “But we strive to adjust our offer to meet the demands of mobile operators, who are interested in solutions that cover a wider subscriber base, and can run on all major mobile platforms.”
