Jingle on Streets

It is really cool to now how many new Jingle implementers.
In Jingle Thingle 2009 I noticed that the big SIP Companies were not only just present in the meeting, but also demonstrating and testing their Jingle implementations.

We know that Google is being using Jingle on GTalk to provide Voice and File Transfers for several years, but what we don't know or maybe we didn't summarize is:
* AOL Messaging migrate to XMPP.
* Nimbuzz migrate several millions of Mobile Clients from SIP to Jingle.
* Twitter solved their scalability problems with XMPP.
* CISCO the most important SIP vendor, bought Jabber.
* OpenSER has a XMPP interoperability module.
* Asterisk has now embed support for Jingle.
* YATE has the first real full featured PBX using Jingle.
* Nokia is planning to launch a smart phone with XMPP/Jingle embeded support.

So it really seems like the simple facts that in Jingle you can negotiate several transport types, several contents in the same session opened the minds of these SIP companies to have a look on it. And the fact of Jingle in real use cases is more reliable and much easier to
implement than SIP, consolidating the protocol as the internet age multimedia signalling negotiating protocol.

  1. "Nokia is planning to launch a smart phone with XMPP/Jingle embeded support".

    That would be awesome.

    Is there any public information related to Jingle implementation on Nokia mobile devices ?

    I'd be curious to know more about that.

  2. Hi kael,

    Nimbuzz already support most Symbian phones. A Nokia embeded one will be really good also.
    I know that they already have Jingle in a tablet, supporting voice and video.
    I comment later when remember the name of the device.
