A new mobile application development company, MobUI has been formed after raising funding it acquired Action Engine Corporation, a mobile application
platform company whose customers include AOL, The Wall Street Journal.com,
MarketWatch.com, Barron's.com, MSNBC.com, Sports Illustrated, Golf.com, and
TiVo.
"We founded MobUI because content companies have a 'need
for speed' in the mobile application development process," said
plans to use their acquisition of Action Engine's mobile application development
technology to expand their focus beyond iPhone, Android, and mobile web
applications to support downloadable BlackBerry, Java, Windows Mobile, and BREW
powered mobile applications. The company has secured contracts with three
major consumer brands to date and will publicly announce these customers as
their mobile applications are deployed in the consumer market.
