Customers are demanding a solution that will help them to easily keep all devices updated with their current information.?The handheld segment is a high growth area for our stores. Our customers are looking for an easy and proven solution that will increase their productivity,? says Gary Bale, Divisional Merchandise Manager at CompUSA. ?PDAsync bridges your mobile phone to your PC, and to your PDAs, and keeps all your information in sync.?PDAsync features include:Mobile Phone Sync - Now you can have your Kyocera Smartphone, Samsung I300 or Ericsson R300, R520, T39, or T60 mobile phone contacts and calendars in sync with your handheld devices and your PC.Selective Synchronization - PDAsync's menu lets you select exactly what you want to sync based on category. For example, you can sync your email based on date, file size and more. Or, you can sync your calendar for a specific time period such as the next 2 weeks. Intelligent Conflict Resolution - if PDAsync detects conflicts in a record, it prompts you, rather than automatically deleting file or creating duplicate files.Faster Synchronization - PDAsync uses Rapid Transfer Technology? to provide synchronization at least two times faster than other products on the market. After initial synchronization, PDAsync sends only your changes, saving you valuable time. Easy to Use Menus - PDAsync places an easy-to-use synchronization menu inside your PC application. You no longer need to run a separate application to synchronize; simply click on the synchronization menu. In addition, PDAsync supports the auto-detect feature that enables you to synchronize automatically when you connect your mobile device to your PC.Flexibility for Your Changing Environment - PDAsync has built-in flexibility that gives you many synchronization options. Synchronize multiple mobile devices to a single PC application or sync a single mobile device to multiple computers. PDAsync becomes our beachhead as we enter a new software category, says Todd Rupley, senior vice president worldwide sales and marketing. PDAsync is the breakthrough product for mobile consumers.
