Product Description

Do you want to unleash the full power of your smartphone and reduce or eliminate the need to carry a laptop? REDFLY has you covered. REDFLY links to your smartphone via a USB cable or wireless Bluetooth connection and extends the Windows Mobile interface to a more convenient and capable environment.

What is REDFLY?

REDFLY is a smartphone terminal with a large screen and full keyboard with no OS, no CPU, and no storage that lets you use your smartphone like a laptop. REDFLY links to your smartphone via a USB cable or wireless Bluetooth connection.

Easily do email, read attachments, view web sites, and use applications that reside on your smartphone with 8 hours of battery life.

REDFLY gives you anytime, anywhere full-screen access to Web 2.0 and line of business applications that reside on your company network or the Internet.

Since the unique REDFLY terminal architecture has no OS, CPU or storage, it lowers TCO, provides data loss protection, and improves corporate security.

REDFLY is unlike any sub-compact laptop, netbook, UMPC or the Palm Foleo because it has no CPU, memory or OS. There’s no need to sync with a smartphone or manage the REDFLY in any way. Just install the OTA driver on your phone, connect to REDFLY and you see your smartphone in a whole new way.

What Can You Do With REDFLY?

• Thanks to REDFLY’s large screen and full keyboard, you can use your smartphone more and your laptop less. Most people don’t take full advantage of their smartphone’s high-speed data connection, powerful hardware and robust applications due to the limitations of smartphones’ tiny screens and cumbersome keyboards.

• REDFLY unleashes your smartphone making it easy to type long emails, check attachments, work with spreadsheets, make presentations, view websites, fully utilize CRM applications and connect to remote servers, desktops and applications from anywhere using your smartphone’s data connection.

• Use REDFLY’s two USB ports to connect a mouse, charge your smartphone directly from REDFLY’s powerful battery, or access data on USB Flash drives.

• Need an easy way to make presentations on the road without a laptop? REDFLY has you covered. Just plug a projector or large monitor into REDFLY’s VGA port and use PowerPoint Mobile to run the presentation.

• Have you ever tried to look up a contact, respond to a text message, forward an email or just get work done while having a mobile phone conversation at the same time? With REDFLY, you can use both hands on its large screen and full keyboard to fully access your smartphone and get the job done while talking to someone on your smartphone.

Expert Review

Redfly Mobile Companion Review

Reviewed by Andrew

I have to say that I have been rather pleasantly surprised by my Redfly Mobile Companion experience. It is extremely easy to setup and use, beautifully designed and built, offers a good keyboard and large high resolution screen in a very small and light body. I would personally not have considered ever getting one priced at $399 but at the current $199 I have to admit that the Redfly gets two thumbs up from me. Mobile professionals who don’t want or need a full laptop on the go will be rather pleased by its simple yet powerful features. Read more...

Although I had my doubts before, it’s now becoming rather obvious that REDFLY is a winning solution for any Windows Mobile professional. Read more...
