Mobile Computing and Telephony: Intelligent Diary pushes the boundaries for corporate mobile teleph

The Blackberry has had things pretty much its own way in delivering portable, on-demand email services. Until now. The launch of the Intelligent Diary is set to make Blackberry users sit up and take notice.

"The Blackberry has started the process of freeing people from their desktop", says Mike Smith, sales director at Intelligent Diary. "But sending and receiving emails on the move is only a small part of a busy manager’s life. For true executive freedom you need more and the Blackberry simply can't deliver".

Bold words with enhancements to the Blackberry about to be released that include the ability to access MS Office documents too. But Mike is undaunted, "When people say to me they already have a Blackberry I just ask them some simple questions. They soon see the point." Here's a selection of Mike's questions.

- Can you guarantee your appointments diary is 100% up to date 100% of the time no matter how many of your colleagues can make appointments for you?
- Can you see your colleagues’ diary and schedule appointments across multiple diaries? You must have been in the situation when you are with a customer and a problem crops up. To solve it you will need to get a meeting together with 2 more of your colleagues. Your challenge is to quickly find a mutually convenient time for you all to get together.
- Do you have instant access to all your contacts? Most of us keep our contacts on our PCs now. But what happens when you don't have a PC with you?
- Can you download and work on your MS Office documents? - Yes we know it's coming on the Blackberry.
- Can you run specialist applications like GPS navigation, driving test theory questions, H&S regulations...?
- How about a little relaxation? Does the Blackberry let you play games, take pictures, listen to music, watch video and much more besides?

Begins to make the Blackberry look like a one trick pony doesn't it? The Blackberry was a brilliant innovation. Unfortunately, it has had things its own way for too long. That's about to change.

The Intelligent Diary is based on a top of the range Imate Pocket PC complete with Smart Phone technology. As a true Pocket PC running Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition there is an enormous range of proven third party applications available. Connectivity is pretty impressive too, with triband GMS/GPRS, WLAN, Bluetooth and Infrared.

Look out for the Intelligent Diary. It will change how you look at work, computing and telephony.
