"Traditionally, Mac users have had to jump through hoops to use third party devices and software," said TransMedia Chairman and CEO, Donald Leka. "No longer. Now Mac users can glide effortlessly between their cell phones and Macs."

Glide automatically syncs your photos, music, videos, documents, iCal calendars, Mac Address Book contacts, and Safari, Camino and Firefox bookmarks from your Mac via the Internet so you can access virtually all of your digital stuff from your cell phone. Glide achieves the ideal of anytime, anywhere access by making it possible to synchronize all of your files on your local desktop(s) to and from Glide's hosted web services. Glide's compatibility engine then serves up your files in the proper format and bit rate for access on various devices and for easy sharing.

Glide serves as your digital companion that travels with you even when you change phones, service providers or upgrade your Mac. Effectively, Glide provides one unified file and information management system and productivity suite for all of your devices.

Glide's mobile applications enable Mac users to create while on the go. Glide stands alone in this approach.

* Compose a document on your mobile device, save it and then access and edit it later on your Mac without the need to email it from your phone. * Edit photos with 75 photo manipulation tools and order prints all on your mobile device or Mac. * Send large files in 5k emails using your .mac email address with no attachment limits and without filling up the recipient's inbox. * Create elegant multimedia websites from your cell phone or Mac and edit later from either device.

Glide's mobile services enable Mac users to leap frog current and soon to be released mobile offerings that require uploading files locally from your computer via a USB 2.0 cable, Bluetooth etc. to your cell phone.
