"Not all terminal and thin client devices are capable of executing
browsers and Java Virtual Machines," said Andrew Bovingdon, Director of
Product Marketing for Tarantella. "Our new small native client component gives
these extremely cost effective devices the ability to easily access diverse,
server based systems and applications through Tarantella-enhanced IT
infrastructures."
The client code is remarkably simple to use and can also be of use in
client environments where browser usage in not permitted or desired. Terminal
vendors can gain access to the code for embedding into their device through
free membership in the Tarantella Technology Alliance Group (TAG), which was
also launched today.
A version of the embedded client for the Nokia 9210 communicator was
announced and demonstrated at CeBIT and will be available later this year when
Nokia begins shipping the device.
Praise for Tarantella
"NIC produces the most cost effective thin client solution available
today. NIC is based on the power, reliability and flexibility of Linux which,
combined with the new Tarantella embedded client and a $199 price tag, gives
companies both control and cost saving," said Chris Troussieux, Director of
Sales, New Internet Computer Company (NIC).
Availability
Tarantella native client for Linux is available as part of the standard
product for general use in non-browser environments, or through the TAG
initiative for embedding into terminal devices. See http://www.tarantella.com/
