POSITIONING

USER EXPERIENCE

Most handheld devices cannot deliver the full web experience.  For example, upon reading the fine-print, they'll reveal, that they: Cannot view Java applets, Java-Scripts, image maps, animated images, background colors/image, font colors, style-sheets or plug-ins.  They not only require to go through a new learning-curve, but require content providers to re-create existing web content for each different device.

DataWind, on the other hand, delivers the complete desktop web experience: Full HTML web pages, graphics, java-applets, java-scripts, active-X controls, cookies, pop-ups, PDF files and more.  It requires no new learning curve or recreation of content.

SPEED

Wireless cellular networks are plagued by limited bandwidth, and even with next-generation networks, data carries a lower priority than voice. DataWind's technology accelerates the delivery of web-pages by factors of 10X to 30X, without any change in network infrastructure.

While other products deliver web pages in as much 3 to 4 minutes across cellular networks, PocketSurfer consistently delivers pages in less than 10 seconds.

BANDWIDTH CONSUMPTION

With next-generation packet networks, the cost to the carrier, and hence the consumer is no longer the amount of time spent online, but instead the number of packets (megabytes of bandwidth) consumed. Packet networks optimize bandwidth usage by bundling and parsing multiples of channels to deliver a more enhanced experience.
PocketSurfer's solution consumes significantly less bandwidth, thereby creating savings for both the carrier and the customer. A customer can easily save over 200MB in bandwidth with the DataWind solution, in 20 hours of usage over a month -- which could result in $20 to $80 in carrier data charges.

SCREEN SIZE

PocketSurfer Web Viewer delivers a full-screen 640 pixel VGA-width user experience, requiring minimal horizontal scrolling.

With competitive products, small screen sizes, result in re-formatted scrunched-up pages that do not resemble the user's desktop experience.  If the pages are not re-formatted, they require significant scrolling, making usage very difficult.  While, when they are re-formatted, content becomes difficult to locate and navigate.

FORM FACTOR

PocketSurfer Web Viewer is the thinnest of the handhelds in the market, making it easy to carry and store.  The size of a cheque-book, it can be easily carried in a pocket or purse.

THIN IS IN

BLUETOOTH^(TM)

The PocketSurfer Web Viewer uses Bluetooth^(TM) (a short range wireless technology) to connect to the 'modem'.  If you are mobile, you can use Bluetooth technology to connect to the phone (Note: if the phone is not Bluetooth-enabled, we offer Bluetooth-Adapters for most phones).

To check if you need a Bluetooth Adapter, or if we have Adapters compatible with your phone, please refer to the following tables. 
If you do not know the Model of your phone, you can check by opening the battery, it is generally labeled on the sticker adhered to the back of the device, behind the battery.
If you do not find your phone on this list, please mail us as we work very hard to continue introduce new Bluetooth Adapters for phones (sometimes faster than the website can get updated). 

Note: Treo & Blackberry models with Bluetooth do not support 'Dial-Up-Networking' profiles, and hence do not work with the PocketSurfer.
