The Flash-based Online Desktop from MAGIX makes all the basic
functions of an operating system accessible via the Internet.
Completely independent of time, place and device, the user can gain
access to all personal files which have been saved and edit or manage
them online with multimedia and office applications. All you need is a
browser or mobile multimedia device.
Fundamental components of this integrated solution are the MAGIX
photo, video, music and web services. It also comprises a
comprehensive online organizer with communications functionality like
VoIP connection, Instant Messenger, push-to-email for mobile devices,
video chat, interfaces to Internet communities, emailing functions,
SMS functions, calendars, address books, bookmarks as well as full
access to documents and files. The text processing, table calculation
and presentation software is enabled via a connection to OpenOffice
and MAGIX SecuDrive, the high-security online storage system.
The Online Desktop of MAGIX therefore provides the user with an
all-round solution for his/her multimedia and office applications that
can be used with cheaper and more basic systems. Furthermore, it is
fully compatible with Microsoft Outlook, Exchange and Lotus Domino
Server version 4.5 or higher, so that files can be quickly and easily
synchronized with every phone or organizer like the Palm Pilot or
iPAQ. The service will be presented at the 2007 CeBit.
The platform for the mobile organizer solution and the
push-to-email service including all rights (software codes and
employees) was bought by MAGIX from one of the market leaders in the
"Mobile Internet" segment. With this unique combination of its own
leading technology for multimedia communication paired with the
know-how gathered from the Mobile and Online Office segment, MAGIX
significantly extends its lead in the Online Services segment.
End users will be able to subscribe to the Online Desktop via the
MAGIX website. The service will also be available to its industry and
telecommunications partners. Like with all MAGIX Internet services,
the Online Desktop can be customized to meet the needs of their
individual wishes and requirements.
CEO of MAGIX AG, Juergen Jaron: "With this development and the

available to consumers. This way, MAGIX can win over more users who
are attracted to the wide range of products provided by MAGIX."
