As part of the mobile GroupWise solution, PalmSource will make available a version of Nexic's Synchronis for GroupWise to all Palm OS licensees for use on individual Palm devices.

Synchronis makes features found in the GroupWise Windows client available through a native GroupWise client designed for the Palm OS platform. The software lets mobile users synchronize and use GroupWise seamlessly on their Palm devices.

PalmSource and Novell will also promote the NotifyLink wireless e-mail solution from Notify Technology -- which provides real-time "over-the-air" synchronization and "push notification" between GroupWise and wireless Palm devices -- to licensees of the Palm OS. NotifyLink supports Palm wireless devices, including those using CDMA 1X-RTT, GSM/GPRS, and Wi-Fi networks.

Novell has also chosen Palm OS as a preferred handheld platform for use with GroupWise and ZENworks, Novell's technology for managing desktops, laptops, PDAs, and multiple server platforms. PalmSource has chosen Novell Nterprise, which includes GroupWise and ZENworks, as a preferred enterprise solutions suite. Palm OS licensees can work directly with Novell or other complementary solutions providers to offer enterprise customers Palm OS-based mobile solutions when using GroupWise and ZENworks.
