Tekever is a European SME information technology company based in Portugal. The main activity is software development for embedded systems, Internet, wireless networks (GSM, GPRS, UMTS, Bluetooth) and system integration namely several hardware devices.

Recent projects include:

• Embedded games – programmed in Java 2 Micro Edition, to run in mobile phones and PDAs taking the most out of the reduced memory and graphical resources of these devices.
  
  
• PDA thin clients – programmed in C or Java, or using the existing browsers in these devices to provide information access in any place, in any time, in Palm, Handspring and Compaq devices. The communication to a central server is performed in a packet-oriented network or by GSM circuit switched data connection. A Java Enterprise Server is responsible for handling the devices requests.
