New Mobile Email App Eliminates Problems and Costs of Handling Large Attachments
PALM DESERT, California and LONDON, March 22, 2010 - The Symbian Foundation and mobile software developer, VISIARC today
announced the launch of Mobile Documents, a unique subscription-based,
streaming email app for Symbian OS-based devices at DEMO 2010. By providing
streamed access to email, Mobile Documents is the first app to eliminate the
inconvenience and data costs associated with downloading large emails and
attachments.
Mobile Documents allows users to immediately access documents that are
stored on remote servers, attach them and simply click send. Mobile Documents
provides push notification and easy access to email and documents anytime,
anywhere- saving users time and data costs. The new app can be downloaded at:
m.mobiledocuments.com.
"Mobile Documents changes the way we access mail on the go and without
all of the roaming or downloading costs," explains Lee M. Williams, Executive
Director of the Symbian Foundation. "We're proud to see innovative developers
harness the power of the Symbian OS to create productivity apps that
transform mobile processes. These guys are a great new addition to our member
community."
"Symbian's open platform allowed us to achieve our goal of creating a
dynamic app that modernizes mobile email," states Peter Lindgren, CEO of
VISIARC. "We look forward to tapping into the capabilities of the Symbian^4
platform and discovering even more ways to enhance email services for
consumers."
A demonstration version of Mobile Documents is available for devices
running on the Symbian^1, and Symbian^3 platforms with any IMAP email
account.

If people could get the attachment files quicker with less cost then this mobile document app is really going to capture the interest of the market. |
