Wireless Packet-Based Multimedia Mail

Under the sponsorship of BellSouth Mobile Data, IMTC investigated the feasibility of using low bandwidth wireless connections to read the body text of a multimedia e-mail message and higher bandwidth wireless connections to send faxes, pictures, sounds, and movies. IMTC created a tool that allowed the demonstrator to establish different bandwidth virtual connections and actually download the data to show connection costs verses performance on a mobile laptop computer.
