Nexthaus Betas Sync Client for iPhone

Wireless PIM Sync-enabled, claims company

By P J Connolly

January 15, 2008 — Although an approved iPhone SDK isn’t due from Apple for a few months, one company has already seized the initiative.

Hostopia’s Nexthaus unit, which specializes in mobile applications, announced on Dec. 26 the release of a beta version of its SyncJe client software for the iPhone, joining Nexthaus’ clients for Blackberry, IBM Lotus Notes and Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express.

The SyncJe clients work with any SyncML server and allow synchronization of PIM data over wireless connections, and the use of automatic synchronization schedules, claims the company.

As Hostopia CEO Colin Campbell noted in a prepared statement, “[W]ireless synchronization of PIM data across multiple devices and platforms is becoming a standard user expectation, not only for iPhone, but for all mobility devices.”

For now, the company admits that users are proceeding at their own risk when installing SyncJe on iPhone, but that would be expected to change once Apple begins blessing third-party applications later this. A year of support is included in the US$39.99 price of SyncJe for iPhone.

Nexthaus’ parent Hostopia is a provider of wholesale Web services, which are then resold by the company’s customers to small- and medium-size businesses. The Nexthaus unit specializes in data and device synchronization.
