Infowave Software Catches the Palm OS Wave

Wireless business solutions vendor Infowave Software Inc.
announced today that its Wireless Business Engine
software will now support Palm OS devices via Infowave’s
Exchange Connector.

Infowave’s Exchange Connector is a bridge for mobile users
to wirelessly access Exchange email, calendars, tasks and
contacts.

Infowave’s Wireless Business Engine is designed
to deliver wireless access to the Internet, company
intranets, and other web-based applications. Infowave says
its Wireless Business Engine also supports wireless access
from laptops, other types of handheld devices, as well as
Internet-ready mobile phones and pagers.

Bob Egan, vice president and research director for mobile
and wireless at Gartner said “the market leaders will
be those providing scalable, device-independent and
network-independent solutions that allow corporate
decision makers to empower their knowledge workforce –
helping them to keep pace with the accelerating heartbeat
of business.”

With the addition of support for Palm OS enabled devices,
Infowave plans on becoming such a company. Time will tell
what its customers think.
