TUAW Macworld Video: Marketcircle announces Daylite Touch

For businesspeople who want to take their work with them everywhere, Marketcircle has just created a new way to keep updated on projects, contacts, calendars, and more through the iPhone -- Daylite Touch.

We interviewed Marketcircle CEO Alykhan Jetha this morning at Macworld Expo 2009, where he gave us a demo of the many features built into Daylite Touch. The app, scheduled for delivery in the first quarter of 2009, will be licensed with another announced product -- Daylite Server -- and will be free of charge to Daylite users. Jetha also noted that Daylite Touch will require the upcoming Daylite 3.9.

Daylite Touch syncs with Daylite Server via Wi-Fi, 3G, and EDGE connections, and doesn't overwhelm the user with too much information on one little screen. This is one of the more complex iPhone apps I've seen since the iPhone arrived on the scene, and a lot of time and effort was obviously directed at the user interface.

This is just a quick intro to the app; we'll be featuring a more detailed interview with AJ later.

Not sure why anyone would post a video that tells everyone about nothing. Pure waste of bandwidth here, folks. Jeez.

the video was just crap.

Perhaps it will breathe a little life into marketcircle. Their product is decent, I use it on a daily basis to manage my band and all my clients in my day job. An iPhone application and a server are timely additions to their product.

Having used Daylight and Billings for the last three years, THIS is the killer app that will finally convince me I need an iPhone.

OMG! I am SO going back to DayLite. Had a lot of installation problems with it a year ago, but hopefully the updates have fixed the integration with OS X native apps.

Can't wait for the iPhone app! Then I'll buy the desktop.

Thank you, MarketCircle!!!
