http://www.satelliteforms.net/ Satellite Forms is a visual integrated software development environment (IDE) that makes it easy to create data-driven applications for Palm OS and Pocket PC/Windows Mobile devices. Satellite Forms is an ideal tool for business and enterprise developers looking to build custom mobile applications, or to transform processes typically performed on paper to an electronic format for improved productivity and efficiency. Satellite Forms 7.0 introduces several exciting and powerful new features, building on the previous 6.1.1 release. This includes the addition of new control properties, new script language keywords, new extensions and sample projects. Version 7.0 delivers improved database performance and synchronization for the PocketPC platform, faster compiler speed in App Designer, plus many more improvements. Here's a quick look at some of the enhancements in the latest version of Satellite Forms: - PocketPC applications can now use the more efficient Palm DB (PDB) format for handheld devices tables, in addition to Microsoft Compact Database (CDB) format, for improved performance, rock solid synchronization, and 100% data table compatibility between the PocketPC and PalmOS platforms. - Satellite Forms applications can now utilize the expanded screens available on some PalmOS devices such as the Palm Tungsten T3, T5, LifeDrive, and TX. - PalmOS applications can now support high density (hi res) bitmaps and icons. - The performance of the application compiler in App Designer has been dramatically improved for complex applications that make extensive use of global functions and subroutines, reducing compile times. One beta tester reported an 18000% speed increase compared to SatForms 6.1! - Several new extensions added for additional barcode scanner support, one handed navigation, launching URLs, and more. Build business-critical applications for the PalmOS and Windows Mobile platforms with Satellite Forms 7.0! If you have an earlier version of Satellite Forms, you can upgrade to version 7.0 at a discounted cost (see the upgrades in our online store).
