    The Consumer Agent is a small agent program that resides in the consumer's terminal (cell phone or pda) that provides the UI to the information in the Consumerium network and computes Automatic Comparisons whenever needed.

    Platforms and Languages:

    This will be implemented as a C++ program for Symbian OS or Pocket PC devices and Midlet (Java MIDP) for broadest possible support of terminals
