Successful dual licensing business model further extended with Qtopia
Open Source Edition.
Oslo, Norway â December 14 â TrolltechÂ, the company that makes software
faster to build and easier to use, today announced the release of Qtopia
4.2.0. With the 4.2.0 release, Qtopia is now fully ready for converged
devices with enhanced telephony, VoIP and WiFi functionality. Other
highlights in the Qtopia 4.2.0 release include an enhanced multimedia
player based on the Helixâ DNAâ Client, basic MIDI support, ease of
graphics design with SVG support and support for second or multiple
displays.
The Qtopia 4.2.0 release also offers the most extensive open source
release for the Qtopia product family to date, further fostering
innovation in a rapidly expanding Qtopia developer community. Qtopia
Core â for single-application embedded devices â has long been available
under the General Public License (GPL) and with this new release, open
source is now extended across the complete Qtopia product family.
Qtopia Open Source Edition contains everything that is in the commercial
source version, except Safe eXecution Environment (SXE) â the security
benefits of a âsandboxâ on the device with the benefits of a native
application approach â digital rights management (DRM) and telephony
components.
With the expanded Qtopia open source offering, Trolltech fully extends
its successful dual licensing business model throughout its product
offerings.
âQtopia Greenphone, announced earlier this year, sparked an overwhelming
level of interest in the mobile device developer community,â said Adam
Lawson, product director, mobile and embedded solutions, Trolltech.
âWith Qtopia Open Source Edition, open source developers have yet
another means to demonstrate the innovation possible on mobile phones
and other mobile devices.â
