"Over the last several years, we have worked on custom handheld and PDA software-based Intranet projects for Fortune 500 airlines, automobile manufacturers, medical device companies, and telecommunications firms. Many of these same corporations are interested in embedding our Mobile Web Server technology into their Internet related projects," said Wayne Yurtin, Co-founder of AllPen Software, Inc. "This technology, combined with our NetHopper mobile web browser, is an ideal fit to allow devices to both access and publish web-based information in a mobile fashion. For example, devices such as camcorders will be web server enabled - thus making the currently recorded images accessible and viewable via the web....real-time." AllPen's technology also provides developers with an interface between data residing on remote devices (such as PDAs or handheld PCs) and their Web Server running directly on a handheld. Utilizing various plug-in modules, users can transparently share their data anytime over an Intranet or Internet with any Web browser. As an example of this technology, AllPen is demonstrating a Digital Ocean Corp.
