Handster: Buy Directly From Your Pocket PC
Posted by Jon Westfall in "NEWS" @ 04:00 AM
"Handster provides a solution for integration of payment into shareware programs. Software developers can extend existing conventional registration with the payment screens. Integrated programs have a 'Buy' button in the menu and show a "Buy/Try" screen on startup. On clicking the "Buy" button in the program the user can enter his credit card directly on his PDA. Secure SSL transaction is executed via GPRS (if available) or via ActiveSync when the PDA synchronizes with an Internet-connected desktop PC. Once the payment is completed, the application gets unlocked automatically."
Handster is now providing a service allowing you to register the software they sell directly from your Pocket PC. I can see this as handy when you're travelling and have that trial expire on you, but I wonder how ready we are to start purchasing goods & services from our handhelds: Anyone engage in e-commerce from their PPC?
