Rich Internet Applications (RIA)

Canoo is delighted to announce that it will be attending the official launch of Sun Microsystem’s JavaFX Mobile technology at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona 16-19 February 2009.

JavaFX Mobile aims to make it easier for developers to provide a Rich Internet Application (RIA) experience on state-of-the-art mobile devices, whilst leveraging the ubiquity and capability of Java. Sun’s choice of the MWC as launch event is indicative of the importance it places on the mobile platform for Java’s future.

Canoo is one of a handful of so-called “Java application showcase project” partners. These partners were specifically chosen by Sun because of their leading roles in the booming Rich Internet Application (RIA) market place.

Canoo senior software engineers Mike Mannion and Alberto Mijares will be talking about Canoo’s experience with JavaFX Mobile technology, and will be on hand to demonstrate a brand new version of Music Pinboard entitled Music Pinboard Mobile. The application will be running on a number of the latest hardware devices at the Sun stand.

Here’s a screenshot of Music Pinboard Mobile:
