BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 10, 1999--Foliage Software Systems, a leader in software product development solutions, announced today the first release of iBrowser.
iBrowser is a full-featured World Wide Web browser developed for use on Windows CE systems. The iBrowser product is designed to operate on Windows CE 2.0 and 2.1 Palm PC Systems with either color or gray scale displays.
iBrowser was subjected to rigorous beta testing and received rave reviews from all that participated in the beta program. Features such as both on and off line browsing, sophisticated caching, optimized media download and display, and support for multiple data and graphics formats helps make iBrowser one of the most robust products of its kind. iBrowser can make use of the specialized hardware buttons available on commercial Palm PC Systems to enable the user to browse the web with a single hand without the need to use the stylus - a first for any web browser based on the Windows CE Platform
Steven Morlock, Foliage's Chief Technology Officer, feels the product will compare very favorably to other solutions, ``Having had exposure to similar products, I am sure that iBrowser will be a welcome addition to the market. The motivation for the development of iBrowser was to provide our customers with an industry standard method of displaying richly formatted information on these small devices. Based on the response we've been getting, we have exceeded our goals and our customers' expectations. We hope that iBrowser will challenge the community to develop similar high quality CE applications.''
In addition to being a web browser, the licensed version of iBrowser permits users to fill in HTML forms that can be queued on the Palm PC device for later transmission to a server via an infrared, direct cable, modem or Ethernet connection.
The Foliage iBrowser is available for download at www.foliage.com/ce/ibrowser.
