PC WOrld: “Sprint PCS is jumping on the Java bandwagon. The company has announced support for
Java on a pair of handsets running the Palm operating system, as well as an application developers’ program
in conjunction with Sun Microsystems.

Sprint PCS will join Nextel Communications as a U.S.-based provider of Java-enabled phones via both its
developer program and future handsets, says Pat Noland, product manager at Sprint PCS, at the Cellular
Telecommunications & Internet Association event held here.”
