Mobiletech announces iPad and tablet support

Mobiletech has the pleasure of announcing iPad support in our mobile web development framework!
We have discussed the iPad, and whether it is a mobile device or not earlier, and now we have concluded. The user experience is so much better when you handle the iPad (and other tablets) as a mobile device and honoring and utilizing the unique capabilities available. The iPad has, as the iPhone, a touch based interaction model. Hence, a web page made for mouse and keyboard will not work well.
We did a proof of concept together with Escenic for the NAB show in Las Vegas a few weeks back. This proved to be a huge sucess! So now, we have concluded on our discussion; Mobiletech will support the iPad and other tablets out there in our product offering.
The iPad support is avalable in the current release of Mobiletech Frame. Watch the video and the screen shots below.
