Mumbai: Creator of searchable web offline Webaroo, has announced the launch of an enhanced version of its patent-pending software for free downloads at www.webaroo.com.
"There is definitely a growing interest in accessing internet content on mobile devices, but consumers have been challenged with small screens and slow but expensive connections," said Rob Enderle, principal analyst Enderle Research Group, US. "Webaroo is a wonderful way to provide the experience of a fast broad band connection on a disconnected mobile device nearly eliminating the drawbacks of slow or unavailable wireless networks and high cellular Internet costs."
Beerud Sheth, Webaroo's co-founder and chief technology officer, says, "We've received great feedback over the past few months from all over the world and have improved our service to meet customer requests. People now have great control over the content they mobilize with Webaroo, can easily save bookmarks, video and audio attachments, and save web sites more completely and easily."
Webaroo's newest innovations in the upgraded service include: - Increased Control: Several new features have been integrated to provide deeper management and manipulation of each person's custom, mobile web. Now people can save a web site up to 'five links deep' while controlling the download size with easy settings for the number of pages to save or the amount of hard disk space to occupy.
- Easily Add Favorite Bookmarks: People can now import bookmarks from IE and Firefox browsers into Webaroo in one simple step.
- Support for Saving Multimedia Attachments
Webaroo now supports downloading embedded attachments on websites including documents, audio and video content. People can easily limit download attachment sizes. - Browser Button for Adding Web Pages and Sites: A new Webaroo button seamlessly implemented into Internet Explorer or Firefox browsers makes it easy to add websites and web pages to Webaroo as people browse. People can also add email correspondences.
- Content Location Control: People now have the option to select the location on their hard disk where the offline web is stored. For maximum convenience, they receive an alert when the maximum disk space limit is approaching.
The software is compatible with computers running Windows XP and Windows 2000 and handhelds running Windows Pocket PC 2003 SE or Windows Mobile 5.0. Support for further mobile device operating systems coming soon.
