Highlights:
Software applications that provide Magic Cap users with access to Tabriz-based applications, QuickMail servers, and real estate information.
Background:
Founded in 1994, Mobile Products uses General Magic's technologies to create software applications that meet the information and communication needs of business and professional people. Specifically, the company has identified and addressed market opportunities in: agent-based software development; mobile access to corporate e-mail systems; and real estate information retrieval.
"We first got involved with General Magic through the existing relationships we had with Sony," said Larry Barcot, executive vice president of Mobile Products. "Sony saw us as a resource into corporate America and wanted to ensure that we were able to take our knowledge of corporate clients needs, mix them with General Magic technologies and provide a winning combination."
The company currently has three products shipping on the Magic Cap platform: DataAgent, QuickLink and Mobile MLS.
Application:
DataAgent is a suite of tools for developing and deploying Magic Cap applications that access data through Tabriz-based applications. DataAgent includes Magic Cap source code for both real-time and store and forward applications, enabling rapid agent development without the need for developing with Tabriz Agent Tools.
QuickLink provides users of Magic Cap personal communicators with easy, remote access to their corporate QuickMail servers. The software enables users to: selectively retrieve summaries or full e-mail messages; reply to and forward messages; and originate new messages.
Mobile MLS enables real estate agents to selectively retrieve property listings and allows downloading of records for storage and use with personal communicators using the Magic Cap operating system. The downloaded listings can be retrieved, used and stored in an internal database or filed in a client folder.
