Lotus iNotes Ultralite on my iPhone
103 years ago
I have finally gotten around to start using IBM Lotus iNotes Ultralite. It is great to have access to an always updated calendar directly on my iPhone or iPod Touch. And because it is entirely browser based, there are no additional space or memory demands on your mobile device.
Our Domino server is just accessable from campus, but with the iPhone having an inbuilt Cisco VPN (as you can see on the screenshot), we can access our calendars, todos, corporate emails and address books any where 
Lotus iNotes Ultralite is really simple to use, and I rather use this version of iNotes, then the full featured one.
If you don’t have an iPhone yet, shame on you, but use Lotus Domino 8.0.2 at work, you can access the ultra lite version from your desktop browser by entering the URL address of your server:
http://<server.domain>/<mailfile path>/?OpenDatabase&ui=dwa_ulite
Update – 2009-11-19: Luckily, the days were Lotus iNotes Ultralite was the best solution around, are over. You can now use Lotus Notes Traveler for iPhone / iPod Touch.
iNotes on my iPhone
0I haven’t had to much time to play with the latest version of Lotus Domino server, but at work we have upgraded our servers in the test environment. I can now use Safari on my iPhone to get access to my contacts, todos and my appointments, and not least accept invitations to new meetings (IBM Lotus iNotes ‘Ultralite). The solution is part of Lotus Domino Web Access.
Please check back to my blog next week, as we will then hopefully have upgraded our servers in production and I will hopefully had time to write a review.
Getting more mobile
03 years ago
These days it’s all about getting more mobile, also for me …
I have to split myself for my regular work and a project work that I am doing untill beginning of October. That means a lot more meetings and being available for both works (and then of course available for a lot more people), even when I am not in office. And not to forget, there is a lot more small things to do, and with my memory that’s almost impossible to keep track of. So I am quite happy with my work starting to test Notes Traveler, so I can now book meetings direct from my Windows Mobile-based phone (HTC4350). The Notes Traveler software provides mobile support for IBM Lotus Notes and IBM Lotus Domino Web Access users. It provides automatic, real-time replication of Lotus Domino e-mail (including attachments), calendar, address book, journal and to do lists. It supports access from Microsoft Windows Mobile 5 and 6 devices and will work over all wired and wireless connections. Today’s workforce is increasingly on the go. Businesses of all sizes are looking for ways to help their mobile workers be more productive-anytime, anywhere, so also at my work.
Well, at least that’s what I hope after having figured out how to set it up! If it works well for me, I will have problems choosing between the iPhone 2 and HTC Touch Pro. As much as I love my current iPhone, having full Lotus Notes/Domino support means a lot for me. And, I wonder how it will affect the long available CommonTime products that seem to currently be the product line of choice to get Lotus Notes and Windows Mobile devices working together. I am least I am looking forward to not buying the solution any more, and even more to not have to give support on it
