Today, Ufone has announced the launch of a very interesting service named UConnect. The service allows you to use your cellphone to control several activities on your PC. In addition to remote PC access the service combos Push-Email-over-SMS as well. It may sound a bit complex but in my initial experience I find the service very easy-to-use. No downloads and installation required on phone, no complex configurations, no issue of proxies and firewalls on your pc, in short, if you have data enabled phone, it’ll work just fine. Following is the list of main features of UConnect:
- Remote file access: You can access the files on your PC remotely. No download required on your phone and it all works on the mobile-browser.
- Remote access to your Outlook emails: Access your MS-Outlook emails on the go using the mobile-browser
- PC control: Allows you to restart, shutdown, hibernate, sleep and log off your machine.
- Multiple PC remote access: Above three features can be used on more than one PCs
- Push Email: Sends you SMS and Wap-Push notifications for every incoming email and you can configure up to 5 email accounts with it. You can even use it on a non-smart phone.
- 512 MB web-space: Each user will be allocated 512 MB space on the server.
How to subscribe?
Simply SMS SUB to 292 to sign up for the service.
