I wrote this document a decade ago. It was based on many years of work and many many dollars of investment. Yes, some will recognize it as looking a lot like PenPoint. Yes, this was all based on GO and Eo’s technology that had supposedly died in 1995. It didn’t. We at Mobilepoint had some success deplying it and making it into a very exciting solution for a specific need: face-to-face…as you saw briefly shown in one of my past video clips. Ecase was not only based on penpoint, and much of the “in development” work that Go was doing at the time of their sudden death, but also many of the applications that in themselves were revolutionary…whom we also licensed the source code from the ISV (application vendors) before the faded away. I was tasked to put it all togther gain, port it on existing hardware, and make it more integrated (i.e. make it a whole).
I did all that instead of pursuing Internet startup opportunies that I am embarrass to name….arg.
I still think the concepts of ecase were many years ahead of its time, and only recently has the concepts and technology surpassed it…(yeah, I thinking of the iPhone’s cocoa OS).
Here’s some clips from marketing promos we did back then with me giving a brief overview of the technology at the end:
