Hi, I am one of your existing customer and my company has bought version 4.0 of your NowSMS product. Are we entitled FREE upgrades to all future versions that you are launching here, e.g. 5.0? | |||
| Keith |
Yes, you are entitled to a free upgrade. V5.0 is still in BETA so I would suggest you wait until it is released before installing on your production platform, if you want to see V5.0 I would download the BETA and install it on another computer. | |||

Hi Keith, Thanks. I have another question. My company is thinking of distributing our apps (written in C for the Series60/Symbian platform) to allow our subscribers to download OVER-THE-AIR. We know J2ME can be distributed via JAD/JAR, but how to do it for C apps in .SIS file format? Or rather what product you have that can allow me to accomplish the above? Thanks | |||

Peter, .SIS files are handled the same way. If you are going to have them downloaded from a particular content server, that content server needs to be configured so that it knows to use the MIME type of "application/vnd.symbian.install" for ".sis" files. When the phone downloads the file, it wants to see the MIME type in place rather than the extension. You could also post a .SIS file through the Multimedia WAP push function in NowSMS. -bn | |||

hi Bryce, Thanks for the reply. Does that mean if I have NowSMS and configure the integrated OTA function with the correct MIME type "application/vnd.symbian.install", then provide a WML page with the SIS file link for download? | |||
| Bryce Norwood - NowSMS Support |
Peter, That is correct. Our MMSCTYPE.INI file has file extension to content type mapping definitions, and the ".SIS" to "application/vnd.symbian.install" mapping is pre-defined in that file. -bn | |||
