To use the Avvenu Plus Guaranteed Access feature, users simply select the files and folders they want to make available via Avvenu's network servers and Guaranteed Access takes care of the rest -- automatically. To ensure that the most current versions of the user's files and folders are available, Guaranteed Access' Auto Sync feature automatically updates the selected content whenever the Avvenu user makes changes to the files. When Guaranteed Access users attempt to access their offline computer, Avvenu automatically points them to these updated files and folders stored on the Avvenu network.

In addition, Guaranteed Access provides secure guaranteed sharing of the selected content. Users simply select a guest to share content with and an email notification is sent with a link that grants the guest safe, password-protected access to only the file or folders selected even when the user's computer is not connected to the Internet or is turned off. Users of the service maintain complete control over what files or folders are shared, who has access to them and for how long.

"The Guaranteed Access feature is an extremely useful addition to the Avvenu service that is sure to be beneficial to Palm users," said Mike Rank, director of Developer Relations, Palm, Inc.
