Alltel Wireless and Sharpcast Deliver Breakthrough Photo Service That Automatically Synchronizes Phones, PCs and the Web

Finanznachrichten News

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. and PALO ALTO, Calif., Dec. 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Sharpcast and Alltel Wireless today announced that Sharpcast Photos has been selected as the standard and exclusive photo sharing and synchronization application for Alltel Wireless' line of Windows Mobile(R)-powered smartphones, including the new Palm(R) Treo(TM) 700wx and the UTStarcom(TM) PPC6700.

Sharpcast Photos is an award-winning software and service combination that delivers a new way to view entire PC and web photo collections on mobile phones, get camera phone pictures automatically to a user's PC and the web, and to share desktop PC and web photos from anywhere. Sharpcast Photos will be available on most new Windows Mobile smartphones from Alltel Wireless. Any existing Windows Mobile phone owner can download the application and sign up for their free Sharpcast Photos account at http://www.sharpcast.com/Alltel . From that site, customers can sign up to trial the service with up to 5 GB free storage or may choose to upgrade with a monthly subscription.

Alltel is the first wireless carrier to offer Sharpcast Photos to its customers. The companies are offering a powerful new version of Sharpcast Photos mobile edition which eliminates the every-day hassles of manual uploading, tedious sharing processes, forgotten backups and sync cables. Sharpcast Photos automatically backs up photo collections online, organizes them into web albums, and keeps the collection constantly up to date across all of a person's mobile phones, PCs and the web. Also, by seamlessly unifying a user's mobile photo collection and PC photo collection, Sharpcast provides a sharing experience that is much more powerful than existing solutions. Sharpcast Photos mobile edition currently supports Windows Mobile 5.0 smartphones, with more mainstream phone platforms to be supported in 2007.

"We are delighted to work with Alltel which shares our vision of a seamlessly unified view of your photos across your phone, desktop PC and the web," said Gibu Thomas, chief executive officer of Sharpcast. "Sharpcast Photos provides a powerful new way to view and share all your PC photos from a mobile phone, while at the same time eliminating the problem of camera phone pictures being trapped in the phone. It's an important strategic compliment to Alltel's high-speed data network, and a great new way for customers to take advantage of the speed and power of their mobile phones."


With the new Sharpcast Photos mobile edition client, photos taken on a phone are instantaneously sent to the web and to the user's desktop PC. Likewise, photos on the user's desktop PC and in their online web albums are automatically visible on their mobile phone, without having to rely on a mobile web browser. The organization of the albums is kept intact on the phone, and photos stream instantaneously to the phone as they are viewed.

"Whether you need to quickly send photos of a real estate property to your office, or you're a busy parent wanting to share a precious memory, Sharpcast Photos will allow Alltel customers to get the most out of the robust capabilities of their powerful mobile devices," said Wade McGill, senior vice president of product management at Alltel Wireless.

Sharpcast Photos is unlike any other photo service due to its continuous multi-way synchronization which keeps a PC in perfect sync with the web and mobile phone. For example, when photos are edited in one location such as a home PC, the change is made everywhere else automatically on the person's other PCs and online web albums. If photos are added through a web browser while away from home, those photos automatically appear on the person's home PC mobile phone.

Because Sharpcast Photos includes powerful desktop software and doesn't rely solely on web access like most services, people have access to their entire photo collections from almost anywhere even when web access is not available. Changes made to a collection while offline, for example on an airplane, automatically synchronize the next time the person connects to the internet.
