The downloadable games can fully take advantage of the phone’s interfaces, such as TCP/IP, SMS, vibrator and backlights. The virtual machine exe- cutes the downloading of games for the optimal game experience. The user can download an unlimited number of games as long as the file sys- tem allows it, i.e. until the phone memory is full.

The downloading concept includes certification of the games, which makes it possible to create a rev- enue chain and favorable business opportunities for network operators and content providers. The virtual machine uses true sandbox technology for highest level of security. The software development kits are available via www.mophun.com
