[dashwire]

Wanted to launch an official thread to consolidate announcements, comments, feedback and questions into a single location. We'll be on the thread regularly so feel free to hit us up for anything you'd like to discuss.

And if you don't know what Dashwire does (please forgive the spam-like wording, its definitely not our intention)...

With Dashwire’s FREE service, your phone content - contacts, text messages, calls, photos, videos, and phone settings - automatically uploads and is safely backed-up on your web-based Dashwire account. Your phone is constantly connected to the web, where Dashwire makes it easy to search, interact with, and share the memories captured on your phone with friends and your favorite sites.

• Full contact sync between your phone and the web
• Read, reply, and create new text messages from your computer-threaded by conversation
• Instantly upload photos and videos from your phone to the web where you can view, edit, organize into albums, and share with friends
• Single click media upload to Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, FriendFeed and Bebo
• Update your status on Facebook and Twitter
• Visual voicemail on your computer screen
• Set internet favorites, ringtones, and speed dials - from your computer
• Automatically transfer contacts and settings from your old phone to your new one

No servers, cables, or effort required. Easy.

Going beyond the basics outlined above...

Some of you have may have heard about our Dashwire Mobile 2.0 release (Engadget Mobile, Wall Street Journal). Just wanted to put out an official word on what we're doing and consolidate the info.

Today we released an updated mobile client (much of which was a result of feedback we’ve gotten on forums). The new Mobile Client is available now at http://m.dashwire.com from your mobile phone browser.

Up to this point Dashwire has mainly been focused on helping users bring their mobile phone’s content to the web. Starting with today’s release, we’ll increasingly be rolling out functionality that enables users to bring their content & experiences from the web instantly down to their phones.

Here are the main components of our updated Mobile Client:

• Graphical UI experience featuring user avatar, status updates, & media gallery
• Mobile access to photos & videos stored online in your Dashwire account – even if the actual media files aren’t on your phone
• Photo uploads from your computer to your Dashwire web account – which then automatically appear on your phone
• Media editing, blogging and sharing with friends – on the go
• Direct mobile status updates to Facebook & Twitter
• Privacy controls & media publishing

Big thanks to all of our existing users for the attention and feedback you’ve given to our Dashwire solution. We hope our updated Mobile Client allows you to integrate your phone with the web in new and exciting ways. PLEASE post all your feedback here and we'll find it shortly after. We maintain a very strong online presence and we love to hear what users have to say.
