The company claims its software is shipping in more than 50M handsets. Customers include Palm, Motorola, Samsung, Sharp, NTT DoCoMo, Panasonic and Nokia.

Translation into a common format enables a single application frontend -- the Picsel browser -- to display and edit many kinds of files, without requiring native application support for the original file format.

Picsel's browser renders large documents on small displays. It offers landscape and portrait modes, zooming and panning tools among other options.

Picsel Group has raised $46.5M in 3rd round funding. Capital International led the deal, and was joined by Doll Capital, NIF, SMBC Ventures, SBI Investment and DoCoMo.com.
