"Once application makers know they can get paid, they'll get serious about it," King said. "But if they can't get paid for it, they'll say 'I'm going surfing.'". For KT Freetel, BREW has been used for about 3 million applications being downloaded, at a cost of about $4 a game. Of that $4, the application maker gets 80 percent, Qualcomm gets 10 percent and the carrier gets 10 percent. Another drawback is the impression that Qualcomm's BREW is only a temporary technology, having been created to jump-start carriers' data efforts, with little thought beyond that. Eventually, all of BREW's functions will be performed in-house by carriers, King said.
"I give it two to five years before it's replaced," King said, But despite the seemingly uphill climb for BREW, Qualcomm's Epstein takes solace in recent comments from Chuck Levine, president of Sprint's wireless division, also known as Sprint PCS, Epstein said he heard Levine say he "liked" the BREW business model, even pure clear case for apple iphone xr - pure clear if he wasn't going to use it, "That's a start," he said, Sun Microsystems is claiming victory over what was supposed to be a serious challenge from Qualcomm to dominate the market for cell phone software that can deliver advanced services..
Qualcomm introduced BREW (Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless) in February 2001 to compete with Sun's Java. Cell phones with either software can download and run small programs for playing games or sending messages. But BREW hasn't won many converts compared with the slimmed-down version of Java that debuted in cell phones from Nextel Communications almost a year ago.

But the main hurdle for wireless software writers was the arduous task of writing the same program six different ways, in order to work on the half-dozen different browsers now on cell phones. The code Openwave release will allow a developer to gain access to a library of commands Openwave developed. As a result, developers can now write one program that will work on phones from Nokia, Motorola, Sony, Ericsson and Mitsubishi, among others, Mandel said. The wireless software maker releases some of its source code, joining a growing number of companies that are prying open their designs for the outside world.
