Orange multimedia services flow across Intel Atom Processor based products and MeeGo
Orange teams up with Intel in order to offer Orange multimedia services onto many Intel Atom Processor-based devices as well as MeeGo software platform. The companies are formulating a common software framework which is slated to work across many devices some of which include netbooks, tablets and smartphones.
Orange and Intel is set to offer easy access to personalized and mobile internet as well as drive uptake to some of the latest services and applications. MeeGo works on the Moblin core OS and its support for a plethora of products as well as reference user experiences. All this is merged with the momentum of Maemo and the Qt application and UI framework for software developers.
Yves Maitre, SVP Devices, Orange Group explained, “Seventy-five percent of our customer base has yet to embrace the mobile internet. With the increasing number of phones and operating systems for customers to choose from, it is our role to make sure our customer’s journey into this richer mobile multimedia environment is simple and easy. Our collaboration with Intel on the MeeGo software platform will not only ensure a broader choice in terms of screens and devices, but that customers continue to benefit from a consistent user experience delivered through Orange Signature services, including a customized home-screen they trust and recognize, the highest quality network and secure and simplified billing.”
Doug Fisher, vice president, Software and Services Group and general manager, Systems Software Division, Intel Corporation stated, “The Intel Atom processor has been a terrific success in the marketplace so far. Combined with the MeeGo software platform, these PC-like devices will deliver a wealth of Internet, computing and communications experiences with rich graphics, multitasking and multimedia capabilities and the best applications performance. Orange and Intel share a similar vision around digital devices and consumer experiences and our joint work will connect people to the content that matters most, wherever they may be.”
The Orange and Intel collaboration will strive to bring the Orange Signature Services like Orange Maps and Orange TV to users being supported by the MeeGo platform.
