Palm marked on Wednesday the 10,000th application for its operating system, with Novell making its GroupWise software available on Palm's platform.

From June, Palm-based handheld device users can have access to the latest version of Novell s GroupWise Version 6 through a Palm OS web clipping application, which provides real-time wireless access To Web content via a modem.   

Groupwise is a collaboration software that allows internal and external users of an enterprise to communicate and work together across all types of networks. GroupWise 6 includes e-mail, calendaring, document management and workflow services. 

In addition, partner solutions from Pumatech and Syclo give users wired or wireless synchronisation capabilities that deliver access to GroupWise applications. 

Palm is making this new application available on its new Software Connection Web site, hosted by PalmGear.  

www.palmgear.com is one of biggest Web sites for bringing shareware developers and users together to promote the Palm OS community. 

The new Software Connection section of the Palm Web site, located at http://software.palm.com, is a site that Palm has set up so that Palm users can have access to software solutions for business or personal purposes.  

Palm said an average of 500 new software products for the Palm OS were being released by developers every month. 

When a company reached the level of critical mass that Palm had, with many thousands of applications, it was incumbent upon us to help our customers find what they want quickly, said Steve Franzese, Palm's vice-president of eMarketing.  

Users can locate software that appeals to them in a minute or two.  They don't have to scroll through thousands of applications to find what they want.   

The Software Connection site has most of the 10,000 software applications into more than 20 groups by topic, such as business, financial, communications, eBooks and readers, health and diet, imaging/graphics, language, music, sports, travel and games, as well as references, utilities, wireless and development tools.  

It also links users of Palm OS handhelds, such as Palm, Handspring, Kyocera, Sony, Samsung, IBM, Symbol, Franklin Covey and HandEra devices, with solutions that can be downloaded to their devices.
