Motorola ‘s Mobile Office Now Meets the Needs of the Business
Traveler by teaming with GlobalDining, Galileo and Saber
Motorola has teamed up
with GlobalDining, Galileo Wireless, and Sabre to extend its Mobile
Office Solution to meet the needs of the mobile business traveler.
Mobile Office is an enterprise solution, enabling the mobile
professional to be as productive on the go as they are at their
desk. With the Travel Connector, the business traveler can manage
their travel needs using a wireless device, without sacrificing the
benefits of company-negotiated rates for hotels and air travel.
Using WAP-enabled devices, business travelers can access
corporate e-mail, calendar, address book, and custom applications as
well as a host of travel provisions including:
- General flight information, from time schedules to weather
conditions
- Ability to rebook or cancel reservations for airlines, hotels,
and car rentals
- Receipt of alerts for flight delays, cancellations and date
changes.
- GlobalDining’s directory of over 500,000 restaurants
worldwide from which real-time online reservations can be made
"With the Mobile Office Solution, we've responded to a need
expressed by enterprises and business executives," says Tim
Krauskopf, vice president and general manager of Software Solutions
for the Motorola Internet Software Group. "With this
announcement Motorola has expanded the Solution to give mobile
professionals additional critical services that allow them to work
more effectively when out of the office."
