History

Using its proprietary HCM Technology, SmartCell has developed a number of mobile applications since 2001 that supports Windows PC and a number of mobile devices, including Palm OS, Windows Mobile Pocket PC, and Windows Mobile Smartphone. Their best-selling program, TextPlus, which improves the speed and accuracy of text entry with dictionary-based suggestion of words and phrases, supports Palm OS and Windows Mobile Pocket PC. Senior System Analyst, Steve Sharp, divulged in a review of TextPlus that the strength of the program lies in its ability to "learn" commonly used words [ [http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/print_article.php?action=expand,43071:dont_paginate,1/ Pocket PC Thoughts :: Print Version ] ] .

HCM Technology

HCM Technology is shorthand for High-performance, Cross-platform Mobile Technology. Unlike technologies that are based on running a virtual machine on the target platform, the HCM technology is developed using highly efficient language C. It integrates with native OS at binary level and maintains a universal programming interface at the top thus enables deploying large-scale applications across various mobile and stationary platforms.

"Shadow of Legend"

In late 2006, SmartCell Technology began development of "Shadow of Legend", which will be the world's first high performance, cross-platform MMORPG (Massively Multi-player Online Role Playing Game) targeted to mobile devices. As of August 2007, "Shadow of Legend" is in closed-Beta testing where registered players assume the roles of world heroes as they explore, adventure, and quest across the vast world of "Agnes".

"Shadow of Legend" allows thousands of players, whether they are on their PC or on their mobile device, to simultaneously interact with each other in the same world. Players have reported seamless connection and gameplay from their mobile devices, while others have reported a number of bugs that are currently in the process of being fixed.

SmartCell Technology has been holding in-game contests in order to promote the game. Their most recent contest is called the "King of Agnes" Leveling-Up contest.

A release date for the game has yet to be released. However, the company has decided to make the game free to play upon release [http://www.shadowoflegend.com/web/news.aspx?id=74] .
