LOS GATOS, CA, Dec 31 (MARKET WIRE) --
Mark/Space, Inc. today announced the immediate availability of The Missing
Sync for iPhone. The Missing Sync for iPhone helps migrating smartphone users
switch to the iPhone, and enhances current iPhone users' synchronization
features.
Now SMS, call logs and notes data will no longer be trapped on the iPhone.
Mark/Space has, for some time, provided a lifeline for Mac users that want
to
use smartphones and other devices. Now that Apple has an attractive alternative
to
those devices, Mark/Space now lets those people migrate their data easily with
The Missing Sync for iPhone. It also adds features for iPhone users that need to
capture useful data created on the iPhone, like SMS messages, notes and call
logs.
As Windows users are also switching to the iPhone, Mark/Space is also
working
on a Windows version of The Missing Sync for iPhone to be released in the coming
months.
Brian Hall, Mark/Space CEO, said, "Our business is based on connectivity and
freedom
of choice for consumers. So it makes perfect sense to develop a product
that helps users migrate their data from one mobile platform to another. The
Missing Sync for iPhone does just that, and it joins our other Missing Sync
products in making sure that Mac users get a comparable, and often an
improved, experience to Windows users using any smart mobile device."
Migration made easy
The Missing Sync for iPhone supports migration from most smartphones using
Palm
OS, Windows Mobile or BlackBerry OS. The Migration assistant is a
step-by-step utility that makes getting contacts, calendars and phone camera
photos a simple task. Even if users never synced with their Macs before, The
Missing Sync for iPhone makes it easy to transfer data from the old phone and
load the information onto the iPhone in minutes.
1001 uses
The iPhone keeps only 1000 SMS messages, both incoming and outgoing, which
means at some point users will start to lose older information. But The
Missing Sync for iPhone collects that data so messages are safe no matter how
prolific a texter you are. It also lets users view and search the SMS
messages in a threaded view on their Mac, just like on the iPhone.
You rang?
Incoming calls aren't always from people in the address book, and often
they're
useful numbers to have. Syncing the call log means users can browse new contact
numbers and add the useful ones to the Address Book on the Mac. It also means
that incoming, outgoing and missed calls are logged, which is great for
business users that need to keep track of costs. Need to claim expenses for
that hour-long business call to Paraguay? No problem, just check the call log.
A note about notes
The Notes application on the iPhone is a useful scratch pad for ideas, plans
and
to-do lists. But often those notes are more useful elsewhere, perhaps with other
notes you have on your computer. The Missing Sync for iPhone will sync the
iPhone notes, so you can read them in Microsoft Entourage, Yojimbo from Bare
Bones
Software, or Mark/Space Notebook, which comes as part of the package.
Pricing and availability
The Missing Sync for iPhone is available immediately as an electronic
download from
the Mark/Space Online Store for $39.95. A CD-ROM version will be available
shortly at $49.95. Upgrades from qualifying Mark/Space products are $24.95.
Compatibility and system requirements
The Missing Sync for iPhone will run on any Mac with Mac OS X v10.4.9 or
newer, native USB support, and an internet connection. Data migration supports
devices with native USB capability running Windows Mobile 2002/2003/5/6,
BlackBerry 4.0 or higher, Palm OS 4 or Palm OS 5. For detailed product
