Lync Mobile Client Arrives for iPhone, iPad and Android--With Video and Voice! #lync #iphone #android

If you are looking for the Official Microsoft Lync Mobile Client for iPhone and iPad it has been released Early 12/20/2012 (EST) For download links and my first Impression review:
http://windowspbx.blogspot.com/2011/12/first-impression-review-of-microsoft.html

Clarification: This article is not about the official Microsoft Lync Mobile client. Xync is a 3rd party client that is currently not a microsoft certified client. For more details on the the official Microsoft Lync Mobile client expected end of year 2011 see this URL:

Well it looks like Damaka will produce the client for Lync that Microsoft has not! And as a bonus it looks like audio and video will make it to the mobile as well. Damaka also notes that no extra server is required--this client registers directly to the Lync Server. (Like snom OCS edition apparently)

The UI on this new client is...strange. ;-) But a client, and one with audio and video no less, is long overdue.

See video demo and more here:

PS- note that the vendor plans a WindowsPhone 7 "Mango" version of this software as well!

UPDATE: Android version has been released!

Dial your phone from PC. Also copy and paste dialing.

Set DND status.

Easily access features by simple menu instead of hard to remember star codes.

snom has committed to developing a Windows-based PC client for snom ONE. This is slated end of year 2011. In the interim Landis Computer (fair disclosure: company owned by me.) is developing a basic Windows client for snomONE. Starting out this client will have very basic features: 

• Dialing (allowing copy and paste dialing)
• Easy menu access to features like ListenIn, Intercom etc.
• Set DND status
• Note that contacts are manually entered and can be anything you want.

This is first round features. Yes, they are basic. But we wanted to deliver a client available VERY SOON that delivers immediate benefits. We will announce roadmap of features soon.

More notes:

• This client connects at the PBX level and controls the extension/deskphone it is registered as

Expect this client available in 1 week in BETA form. If you like this effort—please comment.

Have a great weekend.
