Motorola Launches i.JV30 on the Innovative Convergence™ Platform to Drive Development of J2ME™-based Devices

Java™ Developers Tap Into Broad Market for Enhanced Applications

AUSTIN, Texas - June 3, 2003 - Java developers targeting a broad market of global handset manufacturers can soon take advantage of the enriched capabilities of Motorola's i.JV30, the latest embedded Java virtual machine from Motorola's (NYSE:MOT) Semiconductor Products Sector. The i.JV30, integrated with its Innovative Convergence platforms for 2.5G devices, will be demonstrated next week during the JavaOne Conference in San Francisco.

A market leader in the application of Java platform 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) technology, Motorola's proven solutions are shipping in millions of mobile devices today. i.JV30 is Motorola's next-generation implementation of J2ME and features the latest Java application program interfaces (APIs) including the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) 2.0, Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) 1.0, Wireless Messaging APIs (JSR-120) and the Mobile Media APIs (JSR-135).

By providing a comprehensive, highly-integrated J2ME software and hardware solution designed to speed their time to market, the Innovative Convergence platform will greatly accelerate adoption of the Java MIDP 2.0 global standard by handset providers worldwide. The MIDP 2.0 standard enables developers to take advantage of advances in application development for graphics, new and enhanced gaming, audio, end-to-end security, and other features optimized for the mobile device market.

i.JV30 is designed for the industry's three-million-plus developers who use Java technology, and supports a rapidly growing market for the development of applications and services for new handheld multimedia devices, smartphones and mobile entertainment products. i.JV30 is integrated with Motorola's i.250 Innovative Convergence platforms, which have been adopted by leading designers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) of mobile devices around the world.

"The expansion of J2ME technology fuels success for manufacturers and developers," said Anne-Marie Larkin, vice president and director of Motorola's Wireless Software, Applications and Services Division. "Motorola's i.JV30 solution is designed to minimize an OEM's time to market by providing a comprehensive software platform that is fully optimized for Java and eases the support of compelling applications and content."

"With i.JV30, we are pleased to see Motorola leverage their experience as the specification leader for the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP 2.0) and a leading supplier to make it easier and faster to deploy more capable handsets" said Juan Dewar, Senior Director, CMSG, SUN Microsystems. "Motorola's commitment to Java technology and the evolution of mobile devices will help accelerate the development of exciting and differentiated J2ME services and applications."

With i.JV30, application developers can use development tools such as Metrowerks' CodeWarrior™ Wireless Studio version 7, as well as Sun's J2ME Wireless Toolkit. CodeWarrior Wireless Studio 7, is a development tool for creating world-class applications targeting the J2ME enabled devices. Sun's J2ME Wireless Toolkit is a set of tools providing application developers with the emulation environments, documentation and examples needed to develop Java technology-based applications targeted at CLDC/MIDP compliant mobile phones and entry level personal digital assistants (PDAs).
