Sneak Preview: Check your Lotus Notes email on the Android!

According to analyst firm IDC, there will be more than one billion mobile workers worldwide by year end 2010.

We are announcing the beta availability of Lotus Notes on the Google Android phones. If you have been following my blog, you have surely checked out the availability of Lotus Notes on the iPhone and iPad. Now it’s Android’s turn. Additionally, my friends in Lotus Connections tell me that the next version will support Android as well.

Like our other versions, Lotus Notes Traveler for Android will be a no-charge software that can be downloaded by Lotus Notes customers and provides two-way, over-the-air synchronization of information between Lotus Domino and mobile devices.

The software allows Lotus Notes users who synchronize their Domino mail, calendar, contacts via Lotus Notes Traveler to view that data on the devices that run the Android 2.0 or higher operating system. This includes the Droid, Nexus One and many other devices.
