Why IMS Framework?
A generic white label communication framework tying
together the mobile and PC domain
– Extending beyond one mobile device brand
Focus on what should be communicated rather then how
– High level API hides the details of delivering data to a another
device
Deliver data between applications beyond the size limits of
sms/mms
