MOBILE MARCO USERS can get to their e-mail with the help of CE Software's MobileVision software, which connects a QuickMail server to the ARDIS wireless radio network. Motorola's Marco Wireless Communicator uses Apple's Newton operating system and includes a wireless packet radio modem. MobileVision resides on the Marco and on a QuickMail server. ARDIS delivers QuickMail messages from the server to a user's Marco. A set of rules built in to MobileVision's server software lets users retrieve only messages meeting a certain filter (subject, priority, and so on) or simply view a list of messages received.
An InfoTAC Personal Data Communicator must be connected to the QuickMail server, and each Marco user must have an ARDIS account. A single-user MobileVision license is $200; a ten-user license is $1,500. CE Software plans MobileVision releases for other LAN mail systems and for other data networks. 800-523-7638 or 515-221-1801.
