Doug and I met up with local Ottawa developer WICKSoft the other day to check out their mobile document access system, and were both duly impressed. If you don’t have the time to check out their flash demos, these guys offer a quick, secure, and easy-to-use document access program for a wide variety of server types. They also showed us the work they’re doing with some big-name partners, so you can expect some fine products plugging in to WICKSoft soon. Version 3.6 will be officially announced at WES (along with those new partnerships we can’t mention yet), featuring some pretty slick additions. We heard about their integration with Novell not too long ago, and it was cool to finally see it in action. It was impressive to see how quick and painless server-side installation went, as well as their full range of security features. Which isn’t to say that WICKSoft suffers on the user side of the equation: essentially, if you work at a company where mobile access to documents is a priority, WICKSoft is for you.
You can expect more coverage of WICKSoft from the ‘Cool at WES (which attendees can see for themselves at booth #731), with a review to follow shortly after. Until then, scope the new deets after the jump.
New Features and Improvements:
–Access to Exchange 2003 folders. BlackBerry users can now have direct access to any document stored in their Exchange server, including those in Public and Delegate folders, their contact list or calendar. Users are also able to sync meetings and contacts from Public folders with their BlackBerry.
–Support for Exchange 2007. Allows users to send documents stored on their network as attachments using their internal email system.
–Support for Novell’s newest collaboration solution: Teaming + Conferencing.
– Support for emailing documents as links.
– Support for viewing links to documents received via BlackBerry email.
–Support for Office 2007. With full fidelity real time viewing of docx, xlsx, and pptx documents.
–Better BES integration. BES admins now have total control of deployment.
Quick Impressions:
Deployment of WICKSoft across your company is ridiculously easy. Like, drunken monkey or BBCool staffer easy. Easy to use point and click interface that should take no longer than 5 minutes for any seasoned tech admin… There’s also no footprint on your system infrastructure: WICKSoft can be installed without touching the BES, your production environment, or even outside your network… This thing is totally built to scale. It’s as easy to deploy for 5,000 employees as it is for 5. WICKSoft includes support for mixed and multi-platform MS and Novell environments, multiple domains and departments, and geographically remote areas… Client side use is a breeze. Interface remains the same no matter what document management system is used. Document access is quick, with only a few seconds needed to access 100 page documents. I really like the ability to send a document as a link: prevents huge data charges through employees emailing you large files.

Nachdem ich zwar schon über den BlackBerry Niagara berichtet habe, einen UMTS-losen BlackBerry 9000, sind nun nähere Details zu einer Verwechslung bekannt geworden: Der Niagara soll sehr wohl 3G-Funk unterstützen - sogar den 3G-Beschleuniger EVDO, ähnlich HSDPA. Dafür ist nun unter dem Code-Namen Javelin ein Gerät auf dem Weg, dass ohne UMTS o.ä. ausgeliefert werden.

Not sure if this is your cup of tea but I know many people who are really interested in this kind of stuff. The website KJVBible was emailed to me by one of our readers. It gives you access to the new and old testament from your BlackBerry browser. Pretty cool…

There’s something about the idea of cramming a mobile phone into a wristwatch that keeps the designs rolling out, but is this the first one with a touch of style? Possibly, with that metal case and strap, and looking not too horrifically fat to wear. The EP2502 even has a 1.3-inch OLED touchscreen, a 2-megapixel camera, tri-band and Bluetooth support and claims to be shockproof. It’s also supposedly the World’s first waterproof mobile phone, though we don’t know to what waterproofing standard.

Of late I had been interested in a more functional (but of course FREE) type of voice mail service for my cell phone and had been shopping around. One service I immediately connected with was YouMail.
