TransMedia launches later today Glide Mobile support for Motorola Razr and Sony Ericsson smartphones at http://www.glidedigital.com for both Mac and PC users. Glide Mobile support for devices running the Windows Mobile 5 OS has been available since April.
Now you can access and control all your files, contacts, email and more on the road from a Motorola Razr or Sony Ericsson smartphone. For the first time, it is possible to share up to 40 gigabytes of files from your cell phone and control how and when your files can be viewed or downloaded.
"Glide Mobile makes it possible for people to share files regardless of device, file size, location or network bringing the power of personal computing to the cell phone," said TransMedia Chairman and CEO, Donald Leka. "Glide Mobile effectively circumvents the hardware, storage and network limitations of cell phones. With Glide Mobile, smartphones can be the primary device to access and share files and information, freeing the user from the constraints of the desktop, the weight of the laptop and the range of the hotspot."
Glide is a centralized, rules based and identity based system designed to be device and network neutral that governs file sharing, communications and ecommerce. Glide puts the user in control in terms of who can access the user's email inbox, who can view the user's files and web publications and what is private and public on the Internet. Users can securely share files as view only, downloadable and/or modifiable as well as upload files to and from virtually any computer or mobile device.
Glide functions as a universal translator breaking down proprietary software and format barriers by automatically converting video, audio, image and document files uploaded by all users into the necessary formats and sizes optimal for specific devices and networks. All that is required for senders and recipients to manage and securely share their files with others is a browser, connectivity and a device of their choosing. Effectively, Glide removes technical barriers between devices and systems and empowers users to govern how and when their files are accessed at all times.
In June, Glide Mobile will be available for Nokia 60 and 90 series smartphones as well as Palm devices. Glide Mobile will also feature ecommerce services.
