Case Study - MyScreen Mobile Inc Canada.

Situation

MyScreen Mobile Inc is a startup company working in mobile advertising.

Solution

During 2007, I produced a feasibility study assessing the MyScreen required features against the available programmable mobile platforms.   

I subsequently specified, designed, coded and tested the Nokia S60 2nd and S60 3rd MyScreen application. Development was performed using Carbide.c++ 1.2 and 1.3.

Design and development continued with a version for the Windows Mobile 5/6 Smartphone and Pocket PC Phone (Windows Mobile Standard and Professional).

During 2009, the application was significantly enhanced and modified to use a new MyScreen server. It was also localised in preparation for a trial with TurkCell.

Benefits

I provided expertise to allow MyScreen to reliably predict what was possible under each mobile platform.

The Nokia S60 application was completed on-time for MyScreen's 2008 launch. An early demonstration Windows Mobile version was also exhibited at the 2008 Mobile World Congress.

Orascom Telecom, a carrier with over 70 million subscribers, invested $10 million in MyScreen in May 2008. 

During the first half of 2009, MyScreen unfortunately stopped paying me and other suppliers. Feel free to contact me for further information.
