HP connects people

At the third annual HP Mobility Summit held this year in Shanghai, HP unveiled more than a dozen notebook PCs that deliver a balance of form and function, to both enrich the user experience and reflect a new personal technology lifestyle, says Independent.com.

Other products and services introduced include mobile device management software, mobile messaging and collaboration services, and 3G mobile video solutions, including messaging and mobile blogging services.

Building on its position as the number one notebook vendor in the world, HP unveiled 13 new notebook models, including a sleek, ultra-light tablet PC and the company's first 20-inch diagonal entertainment notebook.

A large mobile network service provider in the UK has expanded its initial order of Media Exchange next generation messaging from Intervoice, reports TMCnet.

The client requested anonymity in this announcement due to competitive issues. Intervoice received the initial order in March this year. The additional order is currently estimated to be worth $6.2 million.

Service providers use Intervoice Media Exchange to offer customers high levels of personalisation, voice-navigated messaging, video, Web and WAP access, from a single subscriber account. These new services can be accessed by the customers from landlines, mobile phones or the Web.

Messaging and data security vendor, Proofpoint, has released its next generation messaging security technology claiming it is the first of its kind for Australia, says ITNews.

Based on a new integrated architecture, Proofpoint 5 offers policy management and data loss prevention technologies all on a unified platform, making it a first for Australia, according to Gerry Tucker, director of APAC at Proofpoint.

"It is the industry's first single-appliance solution for defending against inbound spam and viruses, preventing leaks of confidential and private data, encrypting sensitive information and analysing messaging infrastructures," said Tucker.
