Viewing MS Office Documents on Samsung Phones

The UK based, Picsel Technologies and Samsung Electronics have announced a partnership which will enable real documents to be delivered on normal phones. Samsung's SCH-V650, and forthcoming SPH-V6500 are the first in a series of normal handsets to feature Picsel File Viewer functionality. Further Samsung products featuring Picsel solutions are due for release in various global regions throughout this year.

The platform enables Microsoft Office (Word, Excel and Power Point) and Adobe PDF to be viewed on a mobile phone screen.

Imran Khand, Picsel CEO, said: "Picsel is proud to be continuing its ground breaking relationship with Samsung and this announcement is another significant step towards our goal of becoming the de-facto standard content rendering solution on mobile devices.

"Having access to information on the move is useless unless you can view it in a meaningful way that adds real value. These are the foundations on which we have built Picsel's technology portfolio and the centre-piece of our strategy moving forward."
