The Sony Ericsson WebSDK is a suite of mobile development tools that allows both web and mobile developers to create applications for Sony Ericsson’s Google Android OS and Symbian Foundation phones.

Created in collaboration with the PhoneGap open source community, the launch of the Sony Ericsson WebSDK makes it possible to design applications for Sony Ericsson’s Google Android OS and Symbian Foundation devices starting with the newly announced XPERIA X10 and the recently launched Satio.

Nitobi’s CEO, Andre Charland added: “Sony Ericsson’s collaboration with the PhoneGap community is a huge win for mobile users, developers and the future of the open web on mobile devices. Having already adopted and benefited from open platforms like Google Android OS and Symbian, Sony Ericsson is now completing the puzzle for developers of cross-platform mobile applications”.
