Picsel
Something strange is happening in Glasgow. During one week, I learnt about three independent software companies, all based in the city, and all focusing on handheld computer software. One such talented outfit is Picsel, and their software is extraordinary.
The company designed software that allows you to view almost any content on most handheld devices. The talent shows in the incredible efficiency and versatility of the software.
By any content, I mean a list that includes Acrobat's PDF, Microsoft's Word and Macromedia's Flash. Nor does it need any conversion process to open a document. In fact, it opens Acrobat PDF files open faster on my humble Pocket PC than Acrobat's own reader does on my fully-featured PC. And in web browser mode, it handles most websites beautifully. I have almost stopped using my desktop computer because Picsel on my handheld computer is so elegant.
Picsel's team has put other software developers to shame with the efficiency of their code. But the user interface is a little different from what you are used you, because of the flawless adaptation to the small screen. The company also has an different business model to that of other software houses, meaning that you can only choose it when you choose your handheld computer.
