14 DAY TRIAL // Synchronica, an international provider of mobile email and synchronization solutions, has just announced Synchronica SimpleMail, a new consumer push email solution that brings mobile email to almost 100 percent of handsets in use today.
Based on technology from the recent acquisition of former competitor AxisMobile and available immediately, Synchronica SimpleMail extends the addressable market for push email to even the most basic handsets, making it an ideal service for mobile operators in emerging markets.
Synchronica has already signed license agreements for the new technology with two mobile operators in emerging markets and has received an expansion order from a mobile operator in Russia / CIS for additional licenses.
Synchronica SimpleMail features email-to-SMS and email-to-MMS gateways and a clientless solution for WAP / XHTML browser access. It also includes the patented Optimizer transcoding gateway which reduces the size of pictures and allows a large variety of attachments, such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents to be displayed on feature phones that would otherwise be unable to support this functionality. Users can register for the service from their mobile handset rather than via a PC - a key benefit in emerging markets where broadband connectivity is rare.
Key features of Synchronica SimpleMail include: the above mentioned Email-to-SMS and Email-to-MMS gateways, Clientless solution for WAP / XHTML browser access, plus Email transcoding and compression engine which reduces network traffic and enables standard mobile phones to display a variety of attachments, Support for DOC, ZIP, PDF, MPEG, MP3, and HTML attachments, Supports Gmail, Yahoo Mail, MSN Hotmail Plus, and any POP3 or IMAP4 mailbox, Realtime device auto-detection, Multi-lingual support (English, Cyrillic, Chinese, Arabic, Kanji), Support for multiple email accounts on one device.
