14 DAY TRIAL // NovaMedia has introduced a new software solution that makes Mac OS X support for mobile phones considerably easier to handle. Fonelink provides the proper means for handling all the cellular's content.
Fonelink proves to be highly efficient when it comes to browsing files that are available on a mobile pone. This includes music, images, videos and even the contact list. This solution might turn out to be even more efficient than using iSync and Bluetooth. "This was one of the few areas Windows was still ahead of Mac OS X, but now we are closing the gap!", said Jan Fuellemann, PR spokesperson at Nova Media.
Fonelink also comes with "Mobile Finder" included in order to help the user find certain data on the handheld. Moreover, items can be dragged and dropped onto the mobile phone or flash memory card, as well as onto the PC.
The "Organizer" function offers easy access to the Address Book and iCal is also available. One useful provided option is that of viewing the SMS messages that are stored in the mobile phone. Moreover, all this data can also be stored on a Macintosh computer.
There is also a "Media Center" function, which provides quick access to Apple media content. This means that iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie and several other programs are available for access. Even more, Fonelink brings a tool that automatically adjusts the file types at sizes that are compatible with mobile phone use.
Connection with the mobile device is made through USB. Moreover, Fonelink is available only on mobile phones that work with Apple's iSync software. Another thing that this software might prove useful for is making proper backup of the personal content stored on mobile phones.
Fonelink is compatible with a wide range of phone models, including those coming from world leading manufacturers, such as Nokia, Motorola and Sony Ericsson. The software works only on Mac OS X v10.4.9 and is currently available for purchase at the price of USD 33.87.
