Mobile standards organisation formed

24 Jun 2004

The Open Mobile Terminal Platform is a new standards organisation attempting to promote open standards amongst mobile manufacturers. With the messy state of web standards compliance on mobiles, an organisation like this is long overdue although having NTT Docomo as a member is rather like inviting Hannibal Lector for vegetarian.

Their web site was up earlier today but appears to have been replaced with the ubiquitous "hello world" message; somewhat embarrassing for an organisation with €100,000 membership fees.
