: Avanquest Software introduced Pocket PhoneTools 5 PRO, the latest
version of its PDA communications software tool compatible with all
PDAs using Pocket PC 2002, 2003 and 2003SE.
The
new version provides access to high-speed 3G cellular networks and
compatibility with even more cell phone brands and models than ever
before – including Motorola, Nokia, Samsung and Sony-Ericsson.
Pocket PhoneTools 5 PRO automatically configures an Internet connection
using the cell phone as a modem. Now individuals can quickly connect
and also maintain an Internet connection using high-speed wireless
networks via an integrated database of 320 major operators in 87 countries.
The software is an ideal tool for users who need Internet access in
places where Wi-Fi access is unavailable, for business travelers conducting
eCommerce, and for people who want to download email quickly and navigate
the web faster.
“Offering Pocket PC users a simple and reliable application
to gain mobile Internet access virtually anywhere is key for today’s
busy professional,” said Bob Lang, President of the Mobility
and Communications Division of the Avanquest Software Group. “Being
without Internet access for even a single day can disrupt daily workflow
and result in loss of business. Pocket PhoneTools 5 PRO is the insurance
policy for the Internet that people are seeking to conduct business
at a moment’s notice.”
A more powerful user interface also makes it easier to send and receive
all types of messages, get voicemail with a single click, and quickly
dial phone numbers using the Pocket PhoneTools 5 Dialer. Users can
easily back-up mobile phone contacts on the Pocket PC via Bluetooth®,
Infrared or USB cable modems.
The improved functionality of Pocket PhoneTools 5 PRO is now integrated
directly into Pocket Outlook and into the “Today” screen
of the Pocket PC -- providing even greater efficiency and productivity
for users.
Other vital functions integrated into Pocket PhoneTools 5 PRO include:
- SMS Communications: enables users to send SMS messages to multiple
recipients and view incoming SMS messages directly from the Pocket
PC interface, send high priority SMS messages, archive and compress
SMS messages, and compose pre-recorded SMS messages for later transmissions;
- Pocket PC Fax Software: individuals can send and receive faxes directly
from the Pocket PC, annotate fax messages and reach multiple recipients,
send attachments using Pocket Word, and personalize fax messages using
three cover page templates;
- Synchronize PDA and cell phone data: users can transfer cell phone
contacts from a SIM card and phone directory to the Pocket PC, transfer
Pocket PC contacts to a mobile phone, and create different contact
directories for different cell phones and back them up on a PDA.
Pocket PhoneTools 5 PRO has all the important features that made the
previous versions best sellers, as well as recipients of numerous
Pocket PC awards. Pocket PhoneTools 4 PRO was nominated by Pocket
PC Magazine for its Best Software Awards 2005 and again as a Finalist
in both 2004 and 2003.
Pocket PhoneTools 5 PRO downloads to the PC and is then launched to
the PDA. The software requires Windows 95/98, NT, ME, 2000 or XP operating
systems; MS ActiveSync installation and 6.1 MB of memory on the PC
and 2.1 MB of memory on the PDA.
A free trial version is available at www.avanquest.com and may be
purchased from Avanquest’s online store at http://shop.avanquest.com/usa.
