Nitrodesk brings push email for MS Exchange to Android
I don’t know how I missed it, but Nitrodesk released a major update to their Touchdown software yesterday. New in version 2, push email! I made the switch from Windows Mobile to Android back in January, and push email was the biggest feature that I missed. Now that I have push again, there’s nothing I used my old Windows phone for that I can’t do on my Android Dev Phone 1.
There are also a few other business friendly features in the new version. Remote wipe is nice. They also added ‘Supress Delete from Server’ and ‘Surpress Mark-Read from Server’. I’m guessing these are welcome features to people who have used Blackberrys even though I won’t use them myself. You can see the complete list of new features in version 2 here.
Touchdown cost me $24.99 and it has been worth every penny. It’s nice to see a solid Microsoft Exchange client on such a young platform.
