DataViz announced it has licensed the Microsoft Exchange Server ActiveSync protocol. DataViz intends to incorporate this technology into RoadSync, a mobile ActiveSync client available both commercially and to potential licensees. It will provide non-Microsoft smartphones and other mobile devices with direct, over-the-air, secure synchronization with corporate Outlook e-mail and personal information management data, such as calendar and contacts.
By integrating the RoadSync client with ActiveSync, enterprise customers will have more choices in the types of mobile devices they deploy and will be better able to utilize their existing Exchange Server investment instead of relying on costly middleware solutions. The first editions of RoadSync to incorporate the ActiveSync protocol will be available in May 2005 for the Symbian OS based UIQ platform, Palm OS, and select Java MIDP 2.0 devices.
Announcements regarding the availability and pricing of RoadSync for Symbian UIQ, Palm OS, Java, BREW and Series 60 and Series 80 platforms, which are based on the Symbian OS, will be made throughout the remainder of 2005.
