Handheld use to soar in Europe

"Windows CE was not meeting requirements, it was said to be too complex and too robust," for handheld devices, McKenzie said. There were also problems with synchronizing files between handhelds and PCs.

Growth in smart phones has also been stymied by a lack of appropriate handsets and technologies, McKenzie said. The smart phone market will only take off when technologies such as GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) are implemented in mobile networks, enabling faster transfer rates of data via mobile phone, she said.

Market demand is expected to increase at the end of this year and into next year due to the introduction of phones using the new WAP (Wireless Application Protocol), which allows Internet content to be tailored for display on mobile telephones, pagers and other wireless devices, as well as of devices which incorporate EPOC, the operating system for wireless devices from the Symbian joint venture.

Best of luck.
