This is precisely what JZ Link Inc., a developer of Internet connectivity technologies, has set out to do. The company has designed products that will enable access to any HTML Web site from an Internet-enabled phone, a wireless PDA, or a wireline phone. Recently, the company launched two products: ATOMS and VOICER.

ATOMS (Automated Transcoding On Markup Language):

• Reformats original HTML pages to be presented on a small display screen
• Translates HTML to WML, VoiceXML and other mobile formats
• A built-in customization tool enables access of selected sections of a HTML page
• Internet-compliant phones can access any HTML site via the transcoding service provided by ATOMS

• Combined with ATOMS’ reformatting capabilities
• A phone browser for browsing HTML pages by telephone
• Navigate the Web by spoken commands or a telephone keypad, using voice or keypad commands
• Content is either broadcasted or displayed on the mobile device

"JZ Link’s technologies will enable us to communicate via [the] Internet with various formats on the fly. This is essential for global communication," commented Takashi Hatakeyama, general manager, marketing division, Mitsubishi Space Software Co.
