When I worked to get some of my animated series to mobile market in 2006 (wonderries.mobi), I encountered two problems:
1. The browser technology (SVG, XSLT) wasn't much implemented and worked only on those models that had Ikivo SVG drivers or Opera browser inside.
2. Mobile operators and mobile billing had their own fees to pay to what I didnt find any investment money to pay those, including the testing against all those mobile models and participate phone manufactures development programs.

Then I was impressed about the possibilities that Opera browser was offering compared to other browser providers, like Webkit or most behind technology in Microsoft IE.

When Opera got SVG work thanks to Eric Dahlstrom who made SVG drivers as his school project, then went and worked for Opera two months to get it integrated, it took over 5 years for Webkit (backed with Nokia, Apple) to get it finally work.


Meanwhile when the market went mostly to write iPhone applications where Opera have quietly increased their market share on mobile devices and still offers good, low development cost environment to use XHTML, SVG, CSS and Opera Events.

Being a cross platform environment to distribute our content, it's now included to new Nintendo where the competition to provide content is very low and our development cost compared to iPhone programming much lower.

Nintendo users are mostly something 11 years old so licensing some children book and animate it using the offered technology could be a success. Company called "Brodebound" once did it for computer CD-ROMs and even went public being valued $360M.

If I could afford to go back Northern Ireland, I could use the once offered possibility to have SMART grant money of 50% for such kind of project prototype development budget when I will show a team to it.

Anyone here interested to come a board and back it up?
