Needs more wiki. Mathiastck 00:38, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like a copvio to me. Anyone else? —Joseph/N328KF (Talk) 15:52, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Joseph, definitely. And serious NPoV issues as a side effect. I'm reverting it. (Looking in the history, Govols97 is the offender; before that the article is completely different) —auk 00:42, 12 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like marketroid. Stuff is ripped of various parts of openwave.com. Had to revert again. GoodStuff 13:19, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Recently I've seen a few articles that have been replaced with a copyright vio template. Is that how we want to handle such an occurrence? The first one I saw had been like that for a month. Mathiastck 21:31, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If this company is responsible for 1 billion mobile browsers it could use a better wiki article. Mathiastck 20:14, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

History

[edit]

The history section name-checks Software.com but then omits its history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.102.115.194 (talk) 05:32, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The first paragraph-and-a-half is describing the history of phone.com, not of Openwave. Openwave started, purely and simply, as a merger between software.com and phone.com. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.102.115.196 (talk) 02:26, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There was a claim that ScriptEase was the "forerunner of JavaScript" in the part about the Nombas acquisition. While Cmm was a scripting language with C-like syntax, it was not related to JavaScript. Brendan Eich, creator of JavaScript, discusses the relationship of ScriptEase to what became ECMAScript: http://www.quora.com/JavaScript/How-did-ScriptEase-influence-the-design-of-JavaScript --173.165.128.201 (talk) 20:07, 23 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've edited the editions to History made by Bbleichm because this person appears to be affiliated with Openwave as evidenced by this forum post: http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f100/hijacked-browser-pop-ups-trojans-galore-117706.html where you can see things like their homepage settings list an Openwave Intranet site:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page = http://intranet.openwave.com/default.aspx

followed by directories in the post where the user name used to edit this page appears such as C:\Documents and Settings\bbleichm\.
