XCome Technology, a global leading application innovator for mobile carriers and handset manufacturers in the wireless world today announced that it has completed interoperability testing of its OMA-IMPS client version 1.3 in the OMA TestFest 19.

"As this is our second participation in the OMA TestFest, we found that it offers an excellent neutral venue where vendors can test their product interoperability by working together" said Arindam Bhattacharjee, XCome R&D manager, who led XCome delegation to the TestFest. "It has been an excellent experience to exchange with international engineers to help define OMA standards as well as validate our product quality. Given the importance of interoperability, with our OMA-IMPS version 1.3 client, we made significant progress towards fulfilling the operators'and manufacturers'mobile messaging needs for global scale communication. This helped us build upon our experience from our previous attendance in December 2006 at TestFest 17 and once again connect with the OMA-IMPS development community."

Like all products in the XMessenger line, the OMA-IMPS client version 1.3 impresses through its user friendly UI, its flexibility and the ease with which it can be ported to different operating systems and platforms.
