BugMe! Messenger
Friday March 2, 2001 - 12:51 PM EST - By Alan Graham

Conclusion

BugMe! Messenger is an excellent application allowing you to bypass Graffiti to create reminders or notes. It allows you to quickly create or annotate images which you can later e-mail to another party. It has a very simple user interface that is intuitive and quick. What I found extremely powerful was not just the speed in which it allowed me to perform these functions, but the promise of a true collaborative tool for business and pleasure. I find the ability to annotate any image sent to you or captured, an extremely useful application of mobile technology. My fiance, who is a designer, loved the idea that she could use her EyeModule to capture images on-site, mark them up and then deliver them to the office without leaving her location. I see unlimited applications for this technology. Which brings me to a special surprise.

VC Scoop

Don't you just love it at the end of a movie when as a special treat they play the outtakes? Well for those of you who stuck with me through this review, you get a special treat. No, not the typos that were removed, but some special news. In March BugMe! Messenger will add support to the EyeModule and EyeModule 2. I've seen a beta, so I know it isn't vapor-ware. As a special added bonus, we have secured a special discount for VC readers. If you act now you can get BugMe! Messenger for $29.95, a $10 discount. And BTW, anyone who buys BugMe! Messenger will get free upgrades for life.
