Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Anyone who cut their teeth on Palm OS PDAs knows Splashdata and Iambic. SplashMoney, SplashPhoto, SplashWallet, Agendus, Health and Diet Manager…the list goes on and on, but the point is that no PDA user went without at least some of those programs.

Throughout the years they branched out to other OSes, with their flagship products appearing on every major platform, including the iPhone, Windows Mobile, Android and Blackberry. Now shopping for those apps will be even easier, since Splashdata has announced they are acquiring Iambic! Hopefully this leads to more software support across platforms, and the same quality apps we’ve come to know and love through the years. What do you think they should call the combined company? Splashbic? Iamdata?

SplashData Acquires Iambic, Bringing Together Two Leading Mobile App Developers

LAS VEGAS, NV- Today at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES),
smartphone application developer SplashData, Inc. announced the
acquisition of Iambic, Inc., a pioneer in the development of mobile
productivity software. Iambic’s flagship application, Agendus, is an
award-winning calendaring and time management solution for iPhone,
BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, Palm OS and Symbian devices.

SplashData’s acquisition of Iambic combines the resources of two of
the most respected and established developers of mobile productivity
software.

“We are excited to welcome Iambic’s talented team and products to the
SplashData family,” said Morgan Slain, CEO of SplashData. “We have
already begun investing in the further development of Agendus, and we
look forward to expanding the Iambic line to the latest smartphone
platforms, including iPhone, Android, and webOS.”

Iambic will retain a separate website, user forum, and brand, but
SplashData will start cross-promoting the two lines of applications.
Justin Cepelak, VP of Product Management at SplashData, will oversee
the operations of Iambic.

Iambic, founded in 1994 as a developer of applications for Apple’s
Newton devices, complements SplashData’s lineup of
productivity-enhancing software applications for smartphones and
personal computers. Both companies have established reputations as
innovative developers for all major mobile platforms, including
Android, BlackBerry, iPhone, webOS, and Windows Mobile. Iambic titles
include Agendus, the award-winning integrated solution for calendar,
contacts, to-do’s, and more, EasyNotes, TinySheet, TripTracker,
Vehicle Manager, and YourCall.
