estimated at 60 million in the U.S. alone, Pencel Corporation has
launched a mobile extended database and application tool that will
enable enterprises to customize business applications. The

user interface, data validation, and data exchange connections, a
mobile application can be developed in a matter of hours.

healthcare, transportation and warehouse management in mind, the
Kinectivity Studio promises mobile workers the following:
- Shortened billing cycles
- Improved data collection accuracy,
- Access to up-to-the-minute corporate data

and payment processing

back-end database and applications software products. This database
platform consists of software on the corporate server as well as on
the mobile device. The server component connects to enterprise
systems and manages data flow to and from mobile devices via wired
and wireless connections.
