London -- Symbian, a developer of operating system software for smartphones and other portable devices, announced a partnership with America Online where AOL will develop its wireless instant messaging services -- AOL Instant Messenger and ICQ -- as well as its predictive text input software, T9 Text Input, for Symbian OS mobile phones. AOL will also develop content-based services and applications for Symbian OS. "By becoming a Symbian Platinum Partner, we can more easily and effectively deploy a broad range of media and entertainment content to Symbian licensees who manufacture over 75 per cent of the world's mobile phones sold today," said AOL Mobile vice president and general manager Bill Schwebel. Symbian's operating system is used in phones made by Motorola, Nokia, Samsung, Siemens and Sony Ericsson. http://www.symbian.com/news/2003/pr030424.html
