Are You Signing Your BREW Application Correctly? - Download the Latest BREW AppSigner

The BREW AppSigner is an important tool that digitally notarizes your application and components prior to submission for testing. If you're still using the first version (1.0) of the BREW AppSigner, you are signing your applications incorrectly and putting your application at risk to fail testing. A new, more robust AppSigner is available now.

BREW 2002 Developers Conference - Register Early

In just one year BREW has made its mark as the only complete, end-to-end solution available for the development of wireless applications. It should come as no surprise that BREW 2002 promises to be bigger and better with a registration capacity expected to be almost twice that of last year's conference. Again being held in beautiful San Diego, this year at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel & Marina, June 3-5, BREW 2002 will bring together a top-notch group of developers, device manufacturers and wireless service providers from around the world.

Save the date and be sure to register early - the event will connect you with other developers and industry leaders - giving you a perfect venue for networking and learning more about the tremendous opportunities available as a BREW developer.

The BREW Awards are a new addition to our conference. A distinguished panel of judges will review applications and we'll recognize the top BREW applications/application providers in an award ceremony at this year's conference. Applications that are TRUE BREW tested, available on the BREW Application Catalog and/or commercially available automatically qualify for entry into the 2002 BREW Awards.
