Good day guys.
You've been quiet for a while. Hope you are working on the next big thing.
I am really worried about the future for STK and SIM adapters as more and more people are adapting to smart phones and these phones are obscuring their SIM-ME interface such that adapters like waver will find it difficult to fit in.
SIM based apps are giving way to J2ME.
I'll like to get everyones opinion on this.

Yeah, we are working on something  We are also slightly changing our business model to focus more on R&D and licensing our tech.

The most interesting projects we see are in BRIC+South East Asia, maybe Africa. If smart or basic phone doesn't matter much. Also the more NFC is being hyped the more we see interest in Waver. The big question of who will be controlling the SE and how/what fees will be charged and shared is still unresolved and the real fight is still ahead of us. This is positive for Waver and the next big thing.

Pretty difficult for a bank/anybody to manage the fragmented landscape. Also it's easy to write JSR177 native J2ME app.
