Pumatech
Pumatech (at http://www.pumatech.com) unveiled its Enterprise Intellisync software at TECHXNY. Enterprise Intellisync is designed to benefit corporations seeking to deploy Pumatech's Intellisync synchronization software across the enterprise from one centralized location.

AppForge
AppForge (at http://www.appforge.com) is a Visual Basic development environment for the Palm OS platform. It enables Visual Basic programmers to create sophisticated applications for Palm OS handhelds. This is an important tool for the enterprise, as it allows businesses to easily create custom applications that can be installed on the Palm handhelds of the employees. AppForge was being demonstrated at TECHXNY as can be seen in Figure N.

ZFrame
ZFrame (at http://www.zframe.com) is a really cool new application that will change the way we think about Web surfing on Palm handhelds. Web content (including dynamically generated pages), intranet applications, email plus attachments, documents, and spreadsheets can all be viewed using ZFrame. Web pages are displayed true to form, only shrunken. You can see what I mean in the screen capture from ZFrame's flash demonstration pictured in Figure O.

ZFrame displays Web pages shrunken to fit the Palm handheld screen. Roll over picture for a larger image.

Individual links can then be enlarged and read by moving your stylus around the screen. It's difficult to describe, so I recommend you check out the flash demonstration for yourself at http://www.zframe.com/demo.html.

HanDBase
DDH Software (at http://www.ddhsoftware.com) launched a program to offer HanDBase solutions that have been created by and for medical professionals. The company teamed with several healthcare industry professionals who have developed various HanDBase applications for their own use and have expressed an interest in making these tools widely available to medical professionals around the world.

DDH Software has taken several HanDBase databases created by medical professionals and transformed them into standalone applications. The company has put its resources into designing, building, and testing handheld medical applications that met the rigid standards of each of the healthcare professionals who created the initial applications.

DDH Software also unveiled its new HanDBase Data Exchange at TECHXNY. HanDBase Data Exchange will enable HanDBase users to integrate their handheld databases with Microsoft Access on desktop PCs and ODBC compatible software applications (e.g. FileMaker Pro, Oracle, My SQL, etc.) on corporate networks.
