Brief Project Overview
 
 
*We're interested in developing:
An Internet Appliance running BeIA
Device designed primarily for web browsing, e-mail, e-commerce, chat and other community features. These devices are often compact, inexpensive systems with simplied user interfaces. They can be tethered or wireless, stand-alone or connected, and controlled via touch screen or keyboard. Dedicated appliances eliminate the complexity typical of most personal computers.
An Entertainment Appliance running BeIA
Device designed to deliver a targeted, media-intensive experience. Integrated home entertainment systems allow consumers to actively participate in television/Internet simulcasts, view and edit home video footage, play stand-alone or online games, and stream multiple channels of mp3 audio to various rooms of the house. BeIA allows for scalable interfaces ranging from a standard remote control to fully customized touchscreen interactions.
Software for BeOS Desktops
BeOS is our operating system for personal computers and it is the development platform for BeIA. BeOS applications for audio, video, image, Internet, and more are all in demand.
