HYDERABAD: Wouldn’t it be nice if you could do things like banking,

real-time stock trading, payments, reservation or cancellation of tickets

online? And that too with the added convenience of anytime, anywhere access?

Yes, all this is possible with iCruizer. iStrings, a Hyderabad-based digital

solutions provider, has launched iCruizer, a software to connect the mobile

world with the Internet. iCruizer and its applications provide the technologies

necessary to enable any WAP compliant wireless handset (cellular phone, PDA

etc.) to browse the Web, access email, manage information, access corporate

intranets, and perform other tasks previously possible only with a wired

notebook computer and modem. To ensure an open environment supporting

multi-vendor connectivity, the iCruizer WAP gateway has adopted the WAP 1.1

specification.

Presently, iCruizer is available free of cost in downloadable format on the

company’s site, www.openstrings.com.

"We are offering iCruizer free initially for a period of 30 days. After

that, we would be charging a user based fee. iCruizer could prove to be a boon

for network operators, enterprises, banks, trading houses as well as for

individuals who want to go mobile," said Chaitanya, Director, iStrings. The

company is trying to market the product in India as well as in Europe. "We

are already in talks with a European wireless access provider to market this

product in Europe," he added.

The start-up is also looking at developing wireless software products for

emerging technological companies. Catering to a variety of clients, including

network operators, financial institutions, Internet service providers and

e-commerce and m-commerce providers. The company is also developing software for

wireless LANs, EPOCs and software for handheld devices.
