With the shift in paradigms that is currently underway in the software industry brought about by the open code revolution and the advent of web-based software and applications as a viable alternative to the Microsoft empire, Puma Technology, Inc. is poised to benefit from its foresight and development of software products for the next generation of connectivity that is on the horizon. This shift of power in the software industry coupled with the growing feasibility and predominance of small, powerful hand-held devices (made possible by advancements in integrated circuit technology) that may access data, networks, LANs and even the Internet remotely finds PUMA in the right place at the right time. Wireless connections made possible by Qualcomm's CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) technology coupled with advanced microwave transmission techniques will allow access to data through this new generation of computing devices. If PUMA has its way, their software and applications will be an integral part of this convergence of technologies.

The company offers software developer's kits which enable hardware and software manufacturers to establish compatibility with PUMA's products in the early stages of product development. This ensures that PUMA will be viable software option for end users of new products. This licensing of development kits is an important component of the PUMA business model which ensures PUMA a position of predominance within the new arena of small hand-held computing and communications devices.
