Direct Push E-mail for Windows Mobile 2003 solution released September 11, 2006 [General] | By Edward J. R. RoadSync, our Exchange Activesync email solution, is now bringing SP2 features of Exchange 2003 to Windows Mobile 2003 handhelds (similar to MSFP for Windows Mobile 5). The current version works on Pocket PC's and Pocket PC Phone Edition. There will be an update in the near future with support for smartphones. Information from DataViz follows. * * * * * DataViz’ RoadSync Extends the Capabilities of Windows Mobile 2003 by Adding Direct Push E-mail and Other Key Service Pack 2 Features RoadSync Continues to Fill the Gap Between New Mobility Features Added to Microsoft Exchange and Windows Mobile-Powered Devices Already in the Market DataViz, Inc., announced that RoadSync, its Exchange ActiveSync client, is now available for mobile devices with Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition software. In addition to wirelessly synchronizing e-mail, attachments, calendar and contacts, this edition of RoadSync supports new mobility features added in Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) such as: Direct Push Technology, Remote Wipe, Global Address List Lookup and IT Policy Enforcement. As Microsoft Exchange added these new mobility features in SP2, a corresponding Messaging and Security Feature Pack (MSFP) was added to Windows Mobile 5.0 software, but there was still a need for comparable MSFP features for Windows Mobile 2003-based devices. DataViz has stepped in to fill this need with RoadSync by effectively delivering a similar feature pack for devices with Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition software. This provides IT departments the ability to further maximize their existing device investments while offering mobility in a more secure and managed way. DataViz will also offer RoadSync for Windows Mobile 5.0. This version will build upon the current wireless synchronization capabilities while adding support for new Exchange 2007 productivity features such as: e-mail flagging, online mailbox search, support for linked SharePoint files and more. “As an Independent Software Vendor (ISV) we are able to react quickly and extend the reach of the new mobility features added to Exchange, making those enhancements available to devices already shipping in the market today,” said Ilya Eliashevsky RoadSync product manager, DataViz, Inc. “RoadSync for Windows Mobile 2003 makes the key SP2 features, such as Direct Push, available to the tens of thousands of Windows Mobile 2003 devices already in today’s enterprises. As Exchange 2007 adds new mobility features we plan to subsequently make many of those features available for current devices running Windows Mobile 5.0." “The Messaging and Security Feature Pack for Windows Mobile offers e-mail and other updated Outlook items such as calendar, tasks and contacts, delivered to a device in real time, providing yet another option in how people stay connected to important information while on the go,” said Chris Hill, group product manager, Microsoft Corp. “We are pleased that DataViz is bringing this experience to businesses and individuals currently using Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition-based devices.” To learn more or to see original source of this story click here.
