April 15, 2008 —  A new version of a handset operating system is expected to give device manufacturers more opportunities to expand their product lines and perhaps someday bring smartphone features accessible to the feature-phone budget.

UIQ Technology announced March 27 that UIQ 3.3, based on Symbian OS 9.3, was available, along with a beta version of the SDK for the OS update.

UIQ 3.3 offers users the chance to surf the Web with the Opera Mobile 9 browser, with pan-and-zoom functions, and the ability to use Opera widgets. It also offers a full set of functionality to applications using the Mobile Services Architecture, also known as JSR 248.

The company, part of a 50/50 joint venture between Motorola and Sony Ericsson, expects to extend UIQ-based phones into the mass market and “bring a host of new opportunities for developers wanting to innovate on a powerful user interface platform,” noted Symbian vice president for developer product marketing Antony Edwards, in a prepared statement.
