Motorola and Avvenu Announce New Mobile Service for Image Sharing
On the Go
- Jan 5, 2006 08:00 AM (PR Newswire)
With new Motorola Share service, photos stored on your computer can be
viewed and shared remotely using your Motorola mobile phone
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Today at the Consumer
Electronics Show, Motorola Inc. (NYSE:MOT), a global leader in
wireless communications and Avvenu, a Palo Alto, California based
start-up specializing in remote access and sharing technology,
announced Motorola Share, a free service for mobile users providing
on-the-go image access and sharing capabilities from a wide range of
Motorola mobile devices -- including the popular RAZR, ROKR, and V557
models.
Sharing photos with the new service is easy, requiring only an
Internet- connected computer with Motorola Share software and a
web-enabled mobile handset.* From a mobile device, users can view
images stored on their computer and select a guest to share them with.
An email notification with a link grants the guest safe,
password-protected access to only the images selected. Users of the
service maintain complete control over what pictures are shared, who
has access to them and for how long.
The Motorola Share service is flexible, allowing for optimized image
viewing on the mobile phone screen. An automatic image scaling feature
enables users to share even high-resolution photos with ease. Also,
because images are stored on the user's Internet-connected computer,
the service does not require guests to download the images to their
mobile phone or upload to a centralized server, reducing time for
image load and preview.
