I received the following email: Hi: I'm writing you from Anysoft, Inc. in Newton, MA and am hoping that you can share some product information with members of your Delphi Developers Group of Greater Boston. Products from Anysoft are focused on the professional Microsoft Visual Basic, Visual C++, and Borland Delphi developer and offer a front-end approach to back-end application integration, so it should be of interest to your group members. The product has just started a three-month Beta cycle and we're offering a cash incentive for developers to join the program. The product is called The Digital Cortex and is a system-level technology that intercepts, decodes, and analyzes run-time OS calls from any application and enables you to integrate that information or functionality with other applications. The product will allow you to integrate virtually any application without having to access the source code, API, or underlying data. Every participant that is accepted into and completes the current Beta program receives a free copy of the Digital Cortex - Developer edition (a $495 value) and a $300 American Express Gift Certificate as our thanks for helping us test and enhance our product in the coming months. For more information, please tell your members to check out http://www.anysoft.com/betaapply/ For the professional developer, the Digital Cortex system is a leading-edge development and deployment technology that will enable them to solve a wide range of integration challenges. Some examples include: * Easily interconnect two or more applications without accessing source code. * Expose data, UI objects, and operations and extend them to new platforms, including browsers and wireless devices. * Create next-generation applications that leverage the data and business logic of other applications without disruption to the business or any degradation to performance. * Streamline and automate user activities across multiple applications - even those without exposed API's. * Turn windows into programmable objects with having access to the native item. Digital Cortex solutions are created in conjunction with familiar development tools such as Microsoft Visual Basic, Visual C++, and Borland Delphi. This is a new product that we're targeting for general availability in Q1 of 2002. Our current focus is to get a balance of developers into the Beta program that have time to help us test in the coming months. Longer term, I will be looking for authors who can contribute technical content to our developer portal, and User Groups who would like to have us present to their members when we're local to their groups. I'd appreciate it if you could share this information with your members, and if you think any of your members (independents, VARs, or SIs) would be interested in writing technical articles for us longer term, please drop me a line.
