Cross-platform document hub with increased free online storage

Mobile business expert Cortado today announces its new, free and premium features for its popular app Cortado Workplace. Cortado developed the Workplace app into a cross-platform document hub with increased free online storage and support of WebDAV access. Additional premium features for creating PDF and zip files as well as faxing and further bookable online storage are available for as little as €1.99 / US$2.59.

With over 80,000 active users, Cortado Workplace has become one of the leading business apps for mobile devices. As of now, free online storage has been doubled to 2GB and without the previous 3MB upload limit. Thanks to new WebDAV access, Cortado Workplace can be easily set-up as an online drive on your PC, Mac or notebook. No software installation is necessary, effectively meaning Cortado Workplace can now be used as a 'cloud' USB Stick.
Users can easily transfer files from one PC to another by simple drag and drop to the WebDAV drive. It is especially convenient for iPad users as apps such as Numbers, Pages and Keynote can load documents directly from the Cortado Workplace WebDAV drive and save them there again after having edited them.

Numerous additional premium features are now also available for Android, BlackBerry and Symbian. Users can increase their online storage to 5 or 10GB or create PDF and zip files directly with their mobile devices. Additionally, fax packages for sending faxes directly from smartphones and tablets are available as well.
 
"With these additions we launch a platform-independent, cloud-based file and printing system for the smartphone app age", said Dirk Löwenberg, Business Director Online Sales and Services. "No matter what combination of smartphone, tablet or PC one has, Cortado Workplace provides a central storage location that all devices can access. What was unthinkable until recently is now not only possible, but is also easy: saving attachments from your BlackBerry smartphone, then reading them on the Galaxy Tab; or creating a PowerPoint presentation on a Windows desktop, then presenting it with Keynote on the iPad. While traveling to a customer, the presentation can be converted on a BlackBerry smartphone into PDF and sent in advance to the customer. The possibilities are endless."

Premium features are available for Android, BlackBerry, and Nokia with more features for Apple iOS following shortly. The free and enhanced Cortado Workplace features are available for iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Android, Nokia, and BlackBerry smartphones. • 13-2-11

Scalado reveals high-performance imaging technologies

Scalado has revolutionized its product offering with the launch of its fifth generation Image Processing Platform. With such a wide range of advanced capturing, viewing, editing, searching and sharing capabilities, this latest breakthrough from Scalado will solve all of the most common problems and frustrations associated with mobile imaging, and will finally bring the full-featured digital camera experience to the world's most popular mobile devices.

“Scalado wants to give the end user the ultimate imaging experience, and to provide our customers with the means to create true differentiation through the use of our imaging technology, products and solutions,” says Håkan Persson, Scalado's CEO. “We can now give everybody the ability to record, access and re-live their most memorable moments on any device, anywhere.”
Because it has been optimized for major software, hardware, platforms and sensors, Scalado's Image Processing Platform can be easily integrated with other technologies.

For example, by pre-integrating Scalado's Image Processing Platform with the industry's most advanced SOC system solutions, chipset manufacturers will now be able to include a wide variety of sophisticated imaging applications on their own platform, including the latest breakthroughs in high dynamic range (HDR) imaging and 3D capturing.

"Scalado’s unique combination of patented technologies for embedded imaging can be used to create unprecedented capabilities for any device,” says Sami Niemi, Scalado's CTO and Co-founder. “As such, Scalado can deliver a truly outstanding imaging experience for end users that will allow them to record and re-live their most cherished memories.”

Scalado's Image Processing Platform 5.0 will help many of the world's leading handset manufacturers and chipset providers to introduce new use-cases to the market very quickly, including the ability to capture 3D panorama images simply by 'sweeping' the phone's handset, support for the latest face recognition, detection and tracking technology, super-fast and highly intuitive search functionality, and the ability to pan and zoom into 200 megapixel images in high quality.

Scalado remains at the heart of the mobile imaging market, and will continue to work with the world's most influential platform, camera and phone manufacturers to deliver this new range of innovative applications. Scalado already lists all of the top five tier 1 mobile phone manufacturers and top 10 ISP/Sensor companies as its licensees, and will soon have its software included on more than 1 billion mobile phone handsets.

"This is a cutting edge product that is significantly more advanced than anything else in the marketplace," says Fadi Abbas, Scalado's VP BizDev/CMO and Co-founder. "As a result, we are already expecting great penetration in several different markets.” • 10-2-11
