Helio adds Exchange ActiveSync
Also a new viewer for Office files.
Since its release in March, Helio has said that the Ocean will support Exchange ActiveSync. Those of you who have been waiting for this will be glad to know that today Helio announced the availability of ‘Mail for Microsoft Exchange’ (not to be confused with Mail for Exchange). It will set you back an extra $10/month, but ‘Mail for Microsoft Exchange’ will get you your email, calendar and contacts on your Ocean. On top of that you’ll also get a new version of Helio File Viewer for your office files.
No word yet on Exchange 2003 Service Pack 2 mobility features like Direct Push, remote wipe and GAL lookup with this new ActiveSync client. If you have a chance to try this out let us know what you think.
