Sharpcast is developing a connected applications platform that will set new standards for consumer media and information management. The platform allows applications running on multiple computers, mobile devices and the Web to work together seamlessly to dramatically simplify the way people access, share and back up digital content. It combines the richness and flexibility of software customized for desktop PCs and mobile devices with the benefits of Web-based applications. The result is a best-in-class user experience for digital content management that takes full advantage of broadband wired and wireless networks.
Market Opportunity
Sharpcast targets consumers who are leading the adoption of digital cameras, camera phones and broadband access. The market opportunity grows daily with the worldwide installed base of digital cameras expected to exceed 350 million units by 2008, and camera phones sales surpassing 370 million this year.

Focused on media and mail files today, the platform is general purpose built to deliver easy synchronization to a range of applications.
