Openwave also announced preliminary results for its third quarter ended March 31, 2008. Revenue is expected to be approximately $58 million. The shortfall in revenue versus prior quarter was due to a reduction in maintenance and support and services revenue. The company expects gross margin on a GAAP basis to be approximately 57% and approximately 61% on a non-GAAP basis.
