 Bitstream Inc. has announced the release of ThunderHawk Symbian Series 60 (S60) Edition. The new version offers unique split screen view for fast navigation, bringing top
browsing experience to Symbian phone users.
All new and current ThunderHawk users are able to test the software by downloading
the 30-day free trial.
ThunderHawk Symbian Series60 (S60) Edition complies with Symbian interface guidelines while offering the same features and functionality users have come to expect from ThunderHawk. It is similar to browsing on the desktop because ThunderHawk includes functionality that enhances the user experience in ways that other browsers do not, including:
- Multiple viewing options. ThunderHawk is the only browser that enables users to move between "full screen" and "split screen" viewing modes, making information easy to find and easy to read on Symbian devices.
- Effortless scrolling. Fast, fluid Web page navigation.
- Increased speed. Due to client/server technology, ThunderHawk Symbian Series60 (S60) Edition provides the fastest mobile Web page speeds available.
- The ability to read information on-the-fly. Compact transport format and progressive rendering creates a fast, positive user experience.
- Seamless connectivity. With ThunderHawk Symbian Series60 (S60) Edition, a dropped connection is re-established immediately, along with any data you previously entered.
In addition, ThunderHawk Enterprise Edition enables organizations with high security standards to host ThunderHawk in-house by purchasing a fully configured ThunderHawk server, as well as ThunderHawk Symbian Series60 (S60) user licenses as needed. The advantage of this turnkey appliance is that the server comes preconfigured so there is less of a burden on the enterprise IT department during the installation process.
Along with public website access, ThunderHawk Enterprise Edition enables organizations and employees using Symbian Series60 devices to view applications behind the corporate firewall, including intranet and database information. All upstream data is always 128 bit encrypted, and all downstream data is 128 bit encrypted on all secure pages.
"ThunderHawk continues to provide a browsing experience that is closest to what users see on their desktop," said Anna Chagnon, President and CEO of Bitstream Inc. "Now many Symbian users will be able to take full advantage of the mobile Web with ThunderHawk's unique viewing options, while still utilizing the Symbian platform interface. The result is that ThunderHawk Symbian Series60 users can find the information they need quickly, easily, and productively."
