Infinite Mobile
Delivery Background
The technology behind Infinite Mobile Delivery is a
proven solution in the marketplace, with initial versions of the product
being introduced to the market in the fourth quarter of 1995. Since this
time, Infinite Mobile Delivery has been licensed for over 5 million
mailboxes worldwide making it a market leader for wireless email access in
the enterprise and commercial Internet space. Captaris provides wireless
email solutions to customers worldwide, including carrier class solutions
for British Telecom and Telstra Corporation, Ltd., among others. Non-WAP
support, through implementation of Openwave's
HDML (Handheld Device Markup
Language), has been available since the second quarter of 1997, giving
Infinite Mobile Delivery a strong background in application considerations
for the wireless environment.
Infinite Mobile Delivery acts as an email client proxy on
behalf of the wireless user, providing the user with a view into their
mailbox that is optimized for the small displays and bandwidth constraints
of wireless environments. Through this proxy, the user interacts directly
with their mailbox, performing all of the standard actions such as reading,
replying to, forwarding, and deleting messages. All actions are carried out
real-time, with updates recorded immediately in the user's mailbox. If the
underlying mail system tracks deleted messages in a deleted folder, then
messages deleted from the wireless device are also moved into this folder.
Similarly, if a "sent messages" folder exists, outbound messages from the
wireless device are logged in the appropriate folder. This attention to
detail, together with support for a wide range of messaging systems,
distinguishes Infinite Mobile Delivery from other solutions.
Infinite Mobile Delivery is flexible in that it scales
from small business environments supporting less than 50 users, to larger
corporate environments with thousands of users. The solution also scales to
carrier-class and portal systems supporting hundreds of thousands or even
millions of users in environments with fault tolerant requirements. Infinite Mobile Delivery tightly
integrates with a variety of enterprise applications such as email,
contacts, schedules, CRM, ERP, document management and knowledge management
systems. Securely allow your users to conduct business from anywhere, at
anytime, using virtually any device.

Wireless Voice Connector
Infinite Voice Connector increases the
functionality of Infinite Connector for Microsoft Exchange and Infinite
Enterprise Mail Connector by adding a text-to-speech email engine and voice
reply options. With Infinite Voice Connector, email can be read on an
Internet-enabled phone and replied to with a voice response. This is a much
easier reply option than trying to type a response on the telephone keypad.
The text-to-speech engine converts email messages to voice messages, so you
can listen to, forward or respond to email using any touch-tone phone. An
email message can even be redirected to a nearby fax machine for a hard
copy. Bottom line: Accessing and responding to email on the road becomes
much simpler and easier.

WAP Gateway

wireless data transmissions. Infinite WAP Gateway is the world’s most
popular corporate WAP gateway, widely used by large enterprise companies and
mobile operators. It has been commercially available since October 1999 and
won the Best of Show Award at Spring Internet World 2000. Reliability,
scalability and multiple-device compatibility make Infinite WAP Gateway the
perfect platform for creating and deploying mobile wireless applications.
