Thacker Network Technologies has announced the release of Satellite Forms v7.0. Satellite Forms is a visual integrated software development environment (IDE) that makes it easy to create data-driven applications for Palm OS and Pocket PC/Windows Mobile devices.

Satellite Forms 7.0 introduces several new features, building on the previous 6.1.1 release. This includes the addition of new control properties, new script language keywords, new extensions and sample projects. Version 7.0 also delivers improved database performance and synchronization for the Pocket PC platform, faster compiler speed in App Designer, plus many more improvements.

Some new features include:

  • Pocket PC applications can now use the more efficient Palm DB (PDB) format for handheld devices tables, in addition to Microsoft Compact Database (CDB) format, for improved performance, rock solid synchronization, and 100% data table compatibility between the PocketPC and PalmOS platforms.
  • Satellite Forms applications can now utilize the expanded screens available on some Palm OS devices such as the Palm Tungsten T3, T5, LifeDrive, and TX.
  • Palm OS applications can now support high density (hi res) bitmaps and icons.
  • The performance of the application compiler in App Designer has been dramatically improved for complex applications that make extensive use of global functions and subroutines, reducing compile times.

THe full version costs $795 USD. Upgrade pricing is available for previous customers.
