CTL Announces Availability of Wireless Product Line CTL Inc. Product Description Shelton, CT, CTL, a world leading provider of voice processing systems, Tuesday launched the next generation of its product line, the Wireless INBOX Extender and the Wireless Unified Messaging Extender. These two offerings allow users access to their corporate email, fax, voice mail, contacts and calendars from their WAP enabled mobile phones and wireless devices. â??Todayâ??s unveiling accentuates CTLâ??s commitment to offer next generation applications for the unified messaging market,â?? said Scott Marks, President of CTL. â??By adding wireless to our portfolio of products, it expands our market beyond the traditional voice messaging marketplace.â?? â??CTL is focused on helping corporate messaging users become more efficient while out of the office. We basically extend the user workstation to their mobile device so they can get real time corporate information including email, voice mail, faxes, contacts and calendar information.â?? CTLâ??s Wireless Inbox Extender and Wireless Unified Messaging Extender, which will be generally available within the next 45 days, makes corporate messaging, contact information and calendar access available to the mobile employee through the use of their wireless device. Wireless Inbox Extender Whether a company has Microsoft Exchange/Outlook or Lotus Notes, the Wireless Inbox Extender software allows wireless users to interact with their exact same email INBOX that resides in their office. They can reply, forward, save and delete each email message. All of this is done in real-time; there is no need to synchronize data on the device. Email messages are updated on the userâ??s mailbox immediately, so both the web-enabled phone and the corporate workstation are updated simultaneously. The Wireless Inbox also allows users access to their contact list and calendar. Web-enabled devices can search for specific contacts in their contact folder to get valuable information, such as telephone, fax, mobile numbers and email addresses. Calendar access allows users to check or edit appointments in their calendar. Wireless Unified Messaging Extender The Wireless Unified Messaging Extender connects corporate email clients and their voice messaging system with their web-enabled device so users can access their corporate voice, fax and email messages when out of the office. â??CTLâ??s Wireless Unified Messaging Extender goes one step further than the Wireless Inbox Extender, it extends the corporate unified (voice and fax in addition to email) messaging system to the wireless device,â?? said Ed Hansen, Director of Product Development for CTL. Users with long email messages can have the unified messaging system call them to play their email over the phone, using text-to-speech technology. The user now has the option of recording a reply, which is sent to the sender as an email with a .wav file attachment. Users can also have the system send them a fax or call them to play their voice messages. â??Today, mobile phone users have mobile network voice mail on their cell phones and some also have a mobile network email address. The more sophisticated user has their corporate email on their mobile phone. What the traveling businessperson really wants is their corporate email, corporate voice mail and their corporate faxes accessible from their web-enabled device. Basically, they want the manageability of their in-house unified messaging system with the convenience of their wireless device.â??
