New Handy Tool for Effective and Secure Communication between Your Palm Handheld and External Device

Tridone.com, leading authority in mobile communications solutions, announces the release of an advanced edition of their popular freeware product TriConnect, a connection manager for transport non-specific high-level communications. TriConnect Advanced Edition not only helps to effectively establish a connection between your Palm powered handheld and an external device, it helps to create a profile for proxy authentication, secures your connection though SSL protocol and logs your session into a Memo record. It will allow you to take advantage of the growing mobile computing expansion without losing control over the security issue.

TriConnect Advanced Edition will help you to integrate your Palmoperated mobile device into an existing IT structure without exposing itto additional threats. After creating a script-like macro in the EditKeystroke window you will be able to automatically log into yourcorporate server. Every outgoing string of your macro will be sent inresponse to a string you mark as expected. Support for sending ASCIIcodes allows including specific non-printable characters into theoutbound stream. In this way you can send an Esc or an Enter code to theremote server or an external device. Each macro thus created can beinvoked later with a click from the Keystroke List. The program alsoallows you to save a log of each session to keep track of sent andreceived information. Salespeople, technicians, executives on the go andother people who value their time should find TriConnect AdvancedEdition a useful means to extend their capabilities. Now they can easilyestablish a connection with a desktop or a company server, a modem or atelemetry device and transfer data in the secure mode and save the report of their session for future reference.

Developers of Palm OS applications will find TriComm, the library TriConnect is built upon, really helpful when enabling their applications to interact with an input and an output stream. It empowers a transport non-specific application to use any available connection profile, whether it is a serial port, a Bluetooth, or a user system preset connection (can be Wi-Fi, cable as well as Bluetooth). What's more, the choice of the connection method is available from the same API. The program detects an available transport, establishes an outgoing connection or listens for an incoming string. After TriComm shoulders the connection related tasks, your utility, terminal software or a corporate system will become fully integrated into an existent network.

"Mobile communications have been the professional domain of Tridone.com since 2002," says Andrei Groza, CEO of Tridone.com. "We have acquired extensive experience and are ready to share it with users and developers. Tridone.com development team constantly works on extending the program's functionality to provide our users with the most up-to-date technologies. Next in our plans is the hex view mode and support for the ZModem file transfer protocol. TriConnect Advanced Edition has already included many useful features for better security and control. Developers of Palm applications will also find it a useful tool when debugging connections protocols. So, I am proud to introduce TriConnect Advanced Edition to users and developers."
