SMS messaging and SMS-based services are experiencing explosive growth all around the world. Their convenience and universality, beating even that of internet-based instant messaging, are propelling their growth as integral components of modern communication. From real estate Brokers' offices in the U.S. using SMS to handle instant updates from the field, to Doctor's offices in Australia using it to remind patients of appointments, to Schools in England using it to keep parents updated, people are using SMS to communicate about almost everything. Until now, however, SMSs have been notoriously difficult to keep track of and manage. With Mobile Extender, people can use the familiar Outlook interface to manage their SMS data, and their email message center becomes their SMS message center as well.
"The exchange of information via SMS is now ubiquitous; the UK alone will generate 25 billion SMS messages this year - and US traffic is exploding" says Jeyo President Josh Carroll. "We saw a gaping hole that needed to be filled: the lack of a robust tool to manage SMS messages in the same way that e-mail is managed today - the Mobile Companion and the Extender for Outlook fill that niche."
With Mobile Extender, users can:
-- Send, receive, search, and manage SMS messages from a Windows PC, including bulk messaging
-- Forward SMS messages to e-mail users
-- Forward e-mail messages to mobile phone users
-- View and compose SMS messages in offline mode
-- Fully integrate with Outlook address book
-- Backup SMS messages automatically in an Outlook personal folder file
-- Author and receive SMS messages in any Windows-supported language
Jeyo Mobile Extender for Outlook and Jeyo Mobile Companion work with Windows Mobile Smartphone 2003 or 2002 or Windows Pocket PC Phone Edition 2003 or 2002. System requirements are PC operating systems Windows XP 2000 or 98ME/98.
Mobile Extender is Jeyo's fourth product release since the company's launch in 2002 of its signature Companionware: software that combines and compounds the power of mobile devices (phone or PDA) and PCs to make them more functional, and more fun. Jeyo's first introductions were Jeyo Remote, a next-generation PC remote control for Bluetooth-enabled Sony Ericsson phones and Jeyo Personalizer, an application for customizing mobile phones with home screen themes, ring tones, sounds and wallpaper.
