Revised membership structure for Sony Ericsson Developer World

[Back]

 

At 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona on February 14, 2006 Sony Ericsson Developer World announced that it has revised its membership structure.

The new structure has two levels: Community membership and Premier Partners. This simplifies the process for providing technical support and resources, enabling community interaction and working with key partners.

Modifying the membership structure by removing the two annual, fee-based Core and Core+ memberships means that Sony Ericsson Developer World will be able to continue its educational efforts in emerging technological areas and at the same time satisfy the needs of serving a growing number of key development partners. Sony Ericsson Developer World will honor its commitment to existing Core and Core+ members until their annual memberships have expired.

Here's an overview of the services:

Community membership
The Community membership is open to the global developer community, giving free and unlimited access to all resources on this web portal:

  • Download developer resources such as technical documentation and tools, SDKs, white papers and code samples
  • Search the web portal, discussion forums and Knowledge Base
  • Read forums and articles
  • Free services requiring registration:

Premier Partners
The relationship with Premier Partners (by Sony Ericsson invitation only) is handled by a dedicated partner management team. The company will continue its work with key partners, giving access to premium services including:

  • Partner Manager
    - Access to early hardware
    - Access to software flash equipment
    - Access to dedicated technical support
  • Phone loan program

Relationships with key development companies through Sony Ericsson Developer World help the company ensure that a constant stream of applications and content is available for Sony Ericsson phones at launch as well as throughout the product life-cycle via PlayNow, Fun & Downloads and the Sony Ericsson Application Shop.
