01 Communique Adds Support for Remote Viewing and Control of a PC’s Desktop from Pocket PC Devices

Toronto, ON (PRWEB) October 16, 2005

01 Communique Laboratory Inc. (TSX: ONE – http://www.01com.com) announced a new release of its remote access service, I’m InTouch. The updated Version 5.0 adds further remote access flexibility and incorporates new features to enhance the user experience. Windows Mobile based Pocket PCs with an Internet connection can now be used by mobile professionals and IT managers to take full desktop control of their distant PC. Real-time control provides users with secure access to all of the information and tools they need to remain productive, regardless of where they may be.

Pocket PC users securely login to their PC running the I’m InTouch service using an Internet browser, and can use their proprietary business applications, check and send email and access their networks. 128 bit end-to-end encryption is used within I’m InTouch to ensure the protection of all data. Users have the ability to manage the presentation of their PC’s desktop on their Pocket PC with features such as horizontal or landscape viewing modes and scaling preferences to view a portion or all of the desktop. No additional software is required to be configured on the Pocket PC. This level of access eliminates the traditional shortcomings of users having to synchronize data between their PC and Pocket PC and the inevitable situation of a file that is suddenly needed being out of reach, back at the office. “With the continued roll-out of broadband wireless networks and higher data transfer speeds becoming available around the world, full remote control and navigation of a users desktop from devices such as Pocket PCs is becoming increasingly practical,” says Brian Howden, Vice President of marketing.

Another feature introduced in I’m InTouch Version 5.0 is remote printing. Remote printing gives a user the ability to print any document on their remote computer to their local printer. This functionality recognizes that some users may not have the business application they are remotely working on installed on their local PC but still wish to be able to print a local hardcopy for review. A practical illustration is someone remotely accessing and working on a business accounting application from the convenience of his or her home computer and wishing to print a report to their home printer. I’m InTouch’s remote print function redirects the print job request given to the business PC to the users local home printer for print processing.

“Version 5.0 represents the natural progression of making our remote access service allow users to feel as if they were sitting at their desktop, regardless of where they are or what device they are using to login. The new features enhance the robustness and flexibility of our service offering,” said Andrew Cheung, President and CEO of 01 Communique. “We continue our commitment to offer a service that is easy to use, secure, reliable and affordable and that gives our users essential business tools to manage their business effectively in this increasingly mobile world. More innovative and powerful features are in the pipeline”.
