14 DAY TRIAL // ACCESS has finally rolled out the long-awaited ACCESS Linux Platform at the 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona where every company from the mobile industry is doing its best to amaze the audience with something new and exciting.
Thus, ACCESS is introducing version 1.0 of its Product Development for the ACCESS Linux platform running on a Marvell PX3xx applications processor ant the OMAP platform from Texas Instruments.
"TI's OMAP processor architecture is ideally suited for next-generation, powerful and innovative mobile phones and converged devices," said Tomihisa Kamada, ACCESS co-founder and CTO. "We believe the demonstration we're showing at the 3GSM World Congress highlights how the combination of the ACCESS Linux Platform and TI's industry-leading OMAP platform will enable our licensees to create feature-rich phones that provide consumers with access to digital music, entertainment, web browsing and a host of other services."
"Customers looking to design, build and distribute high-performance phones that should find the combination of ACCESS Linux Platform and the OMAP3430 applications processor a very compelling proposition." said Markus Tremmel, worldwide manager of TI's Cellular Systems Ecosystem. "Its completeness, customizability and flexibility make it ideal for delivering fully featured Linux phones to the market quickly."
The ALP v1.0 is now available to licensees and the company has also begun distributing a press-release version on the Software Development Suite and Garnet VM Compatibility kit, the compatibility layer included with the ALP, to a number of developers.
The demonstration at 3GSM was meant to showcase the scalable, ultra low power and high performance of the OMAP processor and the open, flexible and customizable architecture of the ACCESS Linux Platform software.
