This software solution for GPRS phones accelerates mobile data transmission by up to 30% in good network conditions and even more in poorer conditions - a significant speed enhancement that is particularly important when sending MMS pictures or videos. This innovative solution makes the Sendo M570 one of the fastest mobiles to enter the market, maintaining Sendo's philosophy of delivering excellent value for money.

The fmM1251 is a client-only software solution that is seamlessly integrated into the GPRS and WAP stacks for MMS and camera phones. It is based on fg microtec's patented PFC technology which analyses network behaviour to determine the best timeframe for sending data.

This is a totally new approach to mobile data transmission which sets in at the transport level, predicting the effects on the network and adapting the transport protocol (WAP or wireless TCP) dynamically in order to optimise data throughput, reduce power consumption and enhance user experience. The result is a robust and high quality data connection significantly speeding MMS data transmission.
