Hi All,

If you are using a PocketPC device with Bluetooth, you'll be interested in this message :
ProximityMail is the first community messaging application creating on-the-fly spontaneous ad-hoc networks and offering messaging capabilities. It’s like a mobile chat room or newsgroup that allows anonymous, public or private communications. It enables users to create groups, subscribe (or not) to information sources of interest without knowing a specific user’s PDA id, phone number or email address.
ProximityMail™ application is a plug and play product that requires no user configuration. It’s simple, intuitive and natural to use. ProximityMail facilitates community building, professional networking, and relationship building wherever groups of people are gathered (i.e. tradeshows, corporate and university campus, ballgames, shopping malls, restaurants, hotels, etc).

We are working in creating ProximityMail hotspots (locations where you know others are using ProximityMail) e.g. retail stores (such as Starbucks, movies theater, conferences) and corporate or university campus. If you are interested in using the application, for free, in your retail stores or campus, contact me at vg@proximitymail.com

Download our free version 1.43 at www.proximitymail.com

Interesting to know if ProximityMail HotSpots will need a server - like a Bluetooth enabled computer... I've seen other products to distribute information (like Riato) that will need a server machine.

No server or any other harware/software at all is needed.

ProximityMail uses BluePing Network, a patent-pending peer to multi-peer technology, to create spontaneous ad-hoc Networks among wireless devices in a proximity area without the need of any kind of infrastructure by using devices as relay, thus increasing the Bluetooth range, hoping from one device to another.

The location will need to have its own PDA to send messages (special offer...).
