ACCESS CO., LTD., a key innovator of advanced software technologies for the mobile and beyond-PC markets, announced online retailer Amazon has licensed the ACCESS NetFront Browser. The browser will support Amazon Kindle, Amazon's wireless, portable reading device that offers instant access to over 90,000 books, blogs, magazines and newspapers.

 

"The Internet holds a wealth of text-based information and access to great resources like Wikipedia," said Charlie Tritschler, Director, Kindle. "We chose ACCESS technology so that Kindle customers can quickly and easily reference websites while they are reading wherever they are."

 

A valuable Internet browser for mobile devices, NetFront Browser will enable Amazon Kindle customers to access websites like Wikipedia.org directly from search results. With the browser it will also be possible to click on links within blogs, newspapers, magazines, and books that appear on Amazon Kindle.

 

NetFront Browser is platform agnostic and has been integrated into a variety of products by leading information technology and consumer electronics manufacturers across the world.

 

NetFront Browser finds application in over 1,200 commercial devices including PDAs, smartphones, digital TVs, set-top boxes, mobile handhelds, game consoles and automobile telematics systems.

 

"We are very proud and excited to be an integral part of this new class of device from Amazon. As part of our mission to help create truly ubiquitous networks, ACCESS is committed to enabling all types of mobile devices to connect to the Internet," said Toru Arakawa, president, CEO and co-founder of ACCESS.
