Conduits Technologies, Inc. Releases Peacemaker Professional for
Pocket PC
TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA, April 11, 2001 -- Conduits Technologies, Inc.
announced today the release of Peacemaker Professional 1.1.
Peacemaker Professional is a cross-platform infrared data
transfer utility for Pocket PC, Palm-size PC, and Handheld PC.
Peacemaker Professional ("Peacemaker Pro") allows users to beam
information to other platforms, such as Palm OS® or Psion® devices,
via an infrared link. No extra utilities are needed on the other
device. Peacemaker Pro also enables the Pocket PC to receive incoming
beams from other devices. Version 1.1 adds the ability to beam
to certain infrared-equipped mobile phones, such as the Nokia
8290 and 8890 handsets, and infrared-equipped desktop and
notebook machines.
With Peacemaker Pro, the Pocket PC can beam all types of PIM data:
appointments (including recurring ones), tasks, and contacts
(including "virtual business cards"), as well as notes or other files.
Peacemaker Pro integrates into the Contacts, Tasks, and Calendar
applications. It functions as an add-in utility, augmenting choices
to the Tools menu of each application. One may beam selected items
in a particular application, or launch Peacemaker Pro in "beam receive
only" mode. An icon on the Programs screen gives access to Peacemaker
Pro's ability to beam and receive notes (memos) or other files.
While Peacemaker Pro is active, the Pocket PC is set up to
asynchronously accept an incoming beam from a Palm OS® or Psion®
device, by receiving the information and then prompting the user to
import the item(s) into the Pocket PC. Again, there is no additional
software that has to be installed on the other (Palm OS®, Psion®,
infrared-equipped mobile phone, or infrared-equipped desktop
or notebook) device.
Peacemaker Professional 1.1 is available for $14.95 from
http://www.conduits.com. More information, including a full list of
features, licensing information, and a free business card beaming
version, can be found at the Peacemaker Pro website at
http://www.conduits.com/ce/peacemaker/.
Conduits develops several commercial applications for Pocket PC,
including Pocket Artist (a drawing and image manipulation program
for Pocket PC) and Pocket Launcher (an application launcher for
Pocket PC). Conduits also hosts several open source efforts,
such as Pocket Spark.
