Season’s Greetings

It seems like only 4 blog posts ago that I was wishing everyone Seasons Greetings. Ah, it was only 4 posts ago, something to add to my New Years Resolutions list. Despite the apparent lack of activity on the surface, things have been very busy here, with over 30 beta releases of Phojo/IRES released this year, including the addition of high grade encryption to meet the needs of our police and military customers, live video transmission support from DSLRs and camcorders, masses of new features in IRES, and the Wi-Pics Mobile software mentioned below. Even with the news media industry turmoil, the feedback from my trip to NYC earlier in the month was very positive, 2009 should be a very interesting year. Best wishes and all the best from everyone here at Idruna!

Idruna to power the new Wi-Pics Mobile

Wi-Pics Mobile
Idruna and United Imaging Solutions LLC have teamed up to produce the next generation Wi-Pics Mobile unit. The software is a special custom version of Pocket Phojo designed to meet the needs of event photographers, with built-in work flow actions to automatically download images from the camera as you shoot, and associate information from a barcode scanner or user edited fields into the exif headers or file names. The hardware is the Socket SoMo 650, with a custom bracket and USB host cable for convenient mounting to the camera. The solution will be available from UIS in January starting at $1299.
