Skweezer provides optimized Web access for Orange World portal

[Bob Russell]

Monica at Greenlight Wireless (the Skweezer folks) has contacted us with news that they have partnered with the wireless carrier Orange Dominicana to release a "private-label" version of their Skweezer service.

Excerpting from the full press release...

We decided to partner with Greenlight Wireless over other companies because their Skweezer technology is clearly superior in enabling end-users to easily access the wireless Internet with their mobile phones," said Orange Dominicana Product Manager Thien Doan. Orange and Greenlight Wireless share a similar vision of what the wireless Web experience should be like. "We jumped at the opportunity to partner with Orange because of the company's customer-focused culture and commitment to provide an experience that is independent of devices, geography, or language," said Greenlight Wireless CEO Kevin Perkins.

Skweezer technology compresses and reformats Web content being downloaded to a mobile device, so that it loads faster, looks better, and is easier to navigate. A private-label Skweezer service, like the one created for Orange Dominicana, can include an e-mail client, RSS reader, address book, online translation and other useful features designed specifically for the mobile environment. Skweezer is also completely platform-independent and can be accessed from Pocket PC, Palm, MS Smartphone, and XHTML-based cell phone devices.

But Skweezer is for any mobile browsing, not just with Orange. You can find more information about Skweezer's free and Pro versions at http://www.greenlightwireless.net/ or get a taste of the service at www.skweezer.net.
