Summary

Palm webOS is a world-ready operating system designed to support localized and internationalized applications. It supports conventional locales and ships with character sets, fonts, and keyboards required to support Latin-1 languages and regions. The localization architecture supports dynamic string substitution and provides basic internationalization APIs for regional formatting.

As with the rest of the framework, building global-ready applications is easy with Mojo and Palm webOS. If you haven’t attempted to take an application beyond your own region or locale, then this is a great opportunity to expand your potential user base.
