The Sony Ericsson’s smartphones P990, M600 and W950 are all UIQ 3-based phones using Symbian OS v9.1 and they share the same family DNA. This way an application written for one phone, will in most cases run on the other two UIQ 3-based phones.
This compatibility also holds true for Symbian Signing. Signing a UIQ 3 application for either the M600, P990 or W950 means that the application is Signed for the other two phones. Although Symbian Signing is not a technical requirement of UIQ 3, it is in practice a business requirement for many on-line sales channels, including the Motricity powered Sony Ericsson Application Shop. Motricity is supporting developers by offering a discounted price for signing UIQ 3 applications through the software testing house MphasiS until July 31, 2006 September 30, 2006.
Motricity has teamed-up with the software testing house MphasiS to offer:
- New Symbian Signing price of 130 Euro per testing, compared to 185 Euro for the first testing (+20 Euro if application needs network connection) and 165 Euro if a second testing is required (+20 Euro if application needs network connection).
- A saving of up to 130 Euro for one UIQ 3 application to be tested twice.
- Offer available until
July 31, 2006September 30, 2006. - MphasiS delivers the Symbian Signing process in 1-2 weeks (dependent on any issues with the application)

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
