Build EASE Apps for the iPhone - in English

published on: 06/28/2007
After Eric posted a test we did with Etelos CRM for Google Apps and the iPhone on his blog, I have been swamped with emails and calls asking how we keep putting out stuff like that so fast. So this time I thought I would start from scratch and show you how fast you can build, and distribute APP's with Etelos... but this time for the IPhone.
Note:
To customize the Etelos CRM apps and distribute them; whether on an iPhone browser, Google Gadget, Pageflakes or Windows Live... Sign up Here.
To Sign-up for our regular Developer Program...
Sign up Here.
These are quicktime videos... my favorite is part 3...
Enjoy.
Part 1 / 3 - Getting Started and Contact Forms/Lists
Part 2 / 3 - CRM Testing and EASE
Part 3 / 3 - Custom App from Scratch and Distributing it on Etelos Store
Here is Eric's Video:
From Eric's post:
The first App we're going to roll out will be the Etelos CRM suite of modularized CRM tools. As you can see, we've got it working and we just need some iPhones for people to use them on. So, when is June 29 again???
We will be releasing this interface with the Professional, Enterprise and Developer editions of Etelos CRM just as soon as we get our hand on the real thing.
So when will this be available?
Look for an announcement next week!

I am really curious about how we could input those words onto the iPhone screen ...I am wondering whether there would be a handwriting device or a screen keyboard ? Sorry for this weak question:-p

Nan, I am with you. I know our stuff works on the browser and we can build and distribute... I am cautious about how the input works on this thing. My encouragement is that there are an abundance of companies outside of Apple that want to develop products to improve the users experience on this device. Suppose the onscreen keyboard is a disappointment... perhaps an external device will be available soon... I actually haven't gotten my hands on the real thing yet.

This looks too good to be true. Are you implying that with your platform I can build and distribute apps for the iphone in as few steps as your video showed? It seems like I am missing something. Is this smoke and mirrors?

I'm with David on this. Seems like your website doesn't really tell me enough about what you can do. That video was a real eye opener. Tell me more.

Danny, thanks for your reply. I am so excited when imaging that there would be a series of external devices for iPhone in the future...just wondering how many benefits Jobs could get from them besides iPhone itself?...Or maybe he is just so kind that created a basic for people to explore and develop on further.Anyway I hope iPhone would be more and more useful and really perfect in the future with the development of internet connetion.:-) But will it be popular in China as it is in America?

I am on day 2 with my iphone. Actually I am replying to your comment from the iPhone browser on the edge network. I am 90% satisfied with the device. The browser gives me the power to get real work done since all my business apps are browser based. I'll blog more about later.
