Apple iPad

Posted on by

I am now the happy owner of an Apple iPad 3G 64 GB . I bought the iPad while in London last week – actually on the iPhone 4 launch day on June 24. It was fun to experience the buzz in the Apple Store on Regent Street.

I have been doing a bit of iPhone app programming and I look forward to try to program for the iPad. My first project will be to upgrade my current iPhone project to an universal app that runs on both the iPhone and the iPad. More on that later.

On my iPhone I have access to my work mail and calendar via Lotus Traveler – using VPN. I have yet to try to set this up on my new iPad but it should work exactly as on my iPhone – except for the much better mail and calendar experience due to the much larger display on the iPad.

Lotus Notes Traveler: easy push mail for Domino

Posted on by

I recentry upgraded a Lotus Domino server to 8.5 and installed Lotus Notes Traveler 8.5 – and the upgraded Domino server was up and running with Traveler loaded within two hours!  Potential mobile clients could then connect and install the provided Traveler client software. However, I do not own a Nokia S60 device or a Windows Mobile device which are the devices currently supported by Traveler. I own an iPhone and eagerly await that an upcoming release of Traveler will support ActiveSync and thereby support push mail for the iPhone.

Lotus Notes Traveler was introduced with the Domino 8.0.1 release and is and now in release 8.5. Traveler is push mail for Lotus Domino and other solutions in the push mail area include Excitor with DME, Visto, Funambol, and of course Blackberry with their Enterprise Server product.

Documentation for Traveler 8.5 is available and the following presentation is a good introduction to the features of the Traveler 8.5 release:
