In this series on experimental application development we look at the Ericsson Labs offering. Ericsson Labs, which is a part of Ericsson Research, offers developers a forum to experiment and test new ideas using API prototypes. Their APIs include Mobile Java Communication Framework, Mobile Java Push, Mobile Maps, SMS Send & Receive, Web location and Web Maps. 

While these offerings can be adapted for commercial implementation, their current functionality is intended for experimental use and testing. In this series, we speak with research engineers from Ericsson Labs about each of the APIs and how they are being used.
