Pumatech, a provider of synchronization software and services, and Oracle, have announced Intellisync for Oracle, which synchronizes the Web-based Oracle E-Business Suite Calendar with Microsoft Outlook and Palm OS handhelds. The Oracle E-Business Suite Calendar is currently available in the following Oracle E-Business Suite applications: Oracle Sales Online, Oracle TeleSales and Oracle Marketing Online.

The companies said the new solution leverages Pumatech's Intellisync engine to provide two-way synchronization of appointments, business contacts and to-do lists between the Oracle E-Business Suite and either Microsoft Outlook or Palm OS handhelds. Pumatech said Intellisync for Oracle was developed using Pumatech's XML toolkit -- a component of the company's Intellisync for Web software. The XML toolkit uses XML commands, embedded inside HTTP packets, to communicate with Internet-based servers like Oracle's.

Under the terms of the agreement announced today, Pumatech will handle all marketing, sales and fulfillment of the Intellisync for Oracle software. Pricing of Intellisync for Oracle begins at $139 per seat (including Maintenance) for 5-200 users.
