Open Door Networks revs Mac Envision product following iPhone success

imageOpen Door Networks has announced version 1.2 of its Envision web-image browser for the Mac. The company says the new version was inspired by the success of iEnvision, the iPhone and iPod touch version of the product.

Envision for Macintosh, version 1.2, available immediately, provides enhanced integration between the Mac and iPhone releases, among other new features. Both Envision and iEnvision include a large indexed set of “web shows” that display images from particular web sites and categories as automated, full-screen slideshows. Show categories include art, astronomy, comics, children’s books, news and more. Envision also lets users create and tune their own Web shows, which can then be published and imported into iEnvision on the iPhone.

Envision 1.2 offers: integrated publishing of web shows to the iPhone, via MobileMe; iPhone-sized display window options, show-creation hints and other features to help with iPhone show development; new web shows, including those from the iPhone version; and improved transition effects on Mac OS X 10.5 (“Leopard”).

The 1.2 update is free to all current Envision users. For new users the cost is US$39. A 30-day demo is available for download.
