  6. MOBILE STACKS On Device Portals involve a Mobile Stack, a mobile stack consists of: • OS Layer – Linux, Windows, Mac OS, Symbian • Middleware Layer – Java/J2ME • Presentation Layer – FLASH (Lite), AJAX This combination gives the user the visual, technical, and operational user experience they desire, thus making it an easier user experience on the mobile device

No longer will the carriers be able to tell the brands, hardware, applications, and gaming/social networking companies what can be loaded and used on the phone Side loading these applications and tools through an ODP or in the case of brands and advertisers being able to give the client a branded application enabled with your applications, content, and organized how you would like the users to view and consume this can now be achieved better through side loading of ODP’s
