Fascinating, guess they must be feeling the pressure by free and
transparent alternatives like DeviceMap/OpenDDR[?]

Of course unlike Java or .NET code where obfuscation and some sort of
license could make them hide code and data, with .JS there is little even
ScientiaMobile could do to extort Ten Thousands of Euros or Dollars from
users dumb enough not to use proper alternatives...

Note however, the "WURFL DB" behind it may not be free to use after all,
probably just a trick to lure people into expensive subscriptions.

Node.js/Angular.js/Vert.x and similar environments could also be a good
target environment for DeviceMap...

 Thanks,
