Red-M's two Blade Dev-kits enable Palm OS developers to quickly and easily create and test Bluetooth applications for the Palm OS. The Dev-kits are based on Red-M's successful Blade Bluetooth clip-on for Palm Vx and come with a Palm OS emulator cable, allowing developers to create and test Palm OS applications on a PC using Palm OS emulation software while connected to a Bluetooth 1.1 compliant device.

Red-M is also offering a network version of the Dev-kit that includes the 1050AP LAN Access Point. The Red-M 1050AP provides rapid, simple, and reliable mobile access to a corporate LAN from Bluetooth-enabled devices. The network Dev-kit allows Palm OS developers to easily create live Bluetooth environments to fully test newly developed applications.

Chris Brading, Marketing Director of Red-M asserts, “The Bluetooth developer kits open up immediate opportunities for Palm OS developers to take advantage of the enormous potential of Bluetooth. Application developers are already reaping the rewards of Bluetooth by extending their applications to work in a wireless environment.”

The Red-M Dev-kits are available now with prices starting at $199.
