Sun also intends to use the provisioning module enabling over-the-air configuration of mobile devices, reducing the need for manual device configuration. In addition, Sun is planning to use Synchronica’s SyncML clients for Windows Mobile/Pocket PC and Palm OS, enabling industry-standard synchronization on smart phones that do not support SyncML out of the box. The Sun Java system Communications Suite is currently used by 240 million e-mailboxes within leading service providers and large organizations.
