SplashDatas SplashPhoto 4.0 Now Available for Sony Ericsson P800 Smartphones

SplashPhoto enables users to create and manage electronic photo albums on their Sony Ericsson P800; the first to enable desktop synchronization

SEATTLE WA (MobilityNewswire/PRWEB ) October 1, 2003 --SplashData, Inc., the leading developer of virtual wallet" applications for mobile devices, has yet again ported its popular SplashPhoto image viewer software to another platform. SplashPhoto, originally developed for Palm OS PDAs and recently ported to Pocket PC devices, is now available for Sony Ericsson P800 smartphones. It is the first image viewer to be available for the P800 smartphone and is the first to enable users to manage and synchronize their image libraries with a desktop PC. SplashPhoto also enables P800 users to snap pictures with the built-in camera and quickly organize the images into electronic photo albums on the desktop

Executives with both Sony Ericsson and Symbian have expressed enthusiasm for the release of SplashPhoto for the P800:

     We are very excited to see the high level of quality and innovativeness with which the members of our Developer Program keep creating useful and fun applications that evolve the use of our phones," said Ulf Wretling, Director of Sony Ericssons Developer Program. We are looking forward to more applications from SplashData, and believe that SplashPhoto will become very successful in the Sony Ericsson Application Shop. SplashPhoto is an excellent choice for P800 users, enabling them to edit and organize digital photos on their desktop PC then synchronize and display those photos on their P800."

     "SplashPhoto is an excellently designed image viewer which adds real value to Symbian OS-based smartphone users," said Phil Spencer, Global Manager, Affiliate Partner Program at Symbian. "We are pleased to have SplashData join the Symbian Affiliate Partner Program and bring with them their long-standing experience at developing successful programs for mobile devices."

     SplashPhoto, recently named Best Image Viewer" by the editorial staff of Handheld Computing Magazine, and winner of the Handango Champion Award for Best Lifestyle Application," offers a fast, easy-to-use image viewer for handhelds and smartphones. Version 4.0 includes a desktop catalog feature with two-way synchronization, offering the easiest means of managing photos on a desktop PC and P800. Its one-of-a-kind desktop application now enables users to organize image collections into personalized categories and, upon synchronization, the images are arranged accordingly on the P800. There is no limit to the number of personalized categories that users can create.

     While other image viewers allow users to view pictures on a device in their original size (many of which are upwards of 1 MB), SplashPhoto enables users to crop images on the desktop, then format and compress them for optimal viewing on the handhelds screen. As a result, SplashPhoto users are able to store hundreds of images on their devices rather than only having the capacity for storing a few.

    SplashPhoto 4.0 makes it easier than ever to share photos with friends and family members. First, all images are stored as JPG files, simplifying the process of sharing pictures with people using other operating systems. Secondly, images can be transferred via Bluetooth, infrared or e-mail between different types of devices, including handhelds, smartphones, laptops and other devices.

     SplashPhoto 4.0 features include:

 
  • a desktop catalog for easily managing photo albums and synchronizing them with the P800;
  • unlimited user-defined categories for organizing images;
  • optimization for the P800 ARM-processor, resulting in instantaneous image display;
  • SplashPhoto Desktop automatically crops/resizes JPG images to the appropriate resolution for optimal viewing on the P800;
  • support for the P800 built-in camera, enabling users to instantly view and organize images captured with the built-in camera, and the ability to sync those images to the desktop for further editing, organizing and archiving;
  • a Pan and Zoom" feature, enabling users who have installed large, high-resolution JPG images on their P800 to zoom in and out or pan across the picture to improve on-screen viewing;
     SplashPhoto 4.0 is available for $29.95 at www.splashdata.com.
