Accompanying this release is news that customers will now only need to pay once to use eWallet everywhere. For one low price eWallet can be used on any Windows Mobile device, BlackBerry, iPhone, iPod touch, Windows PC, laptop or Windows netbook. Plus, eWallet 7.0 includes a preview of Ilium Software’s upcoming Mac OS X version. Pricing is $19.95 for new users, and $10.00 for existing owners looking to upgrade.

Aside from a new purchasing process, eWallet 7.0 adds many exciting new features to the program. One of the most anticipated features in this upgrade is image syncing from the desktop to the device. Now when users design a great-looking wallet on the Windows PC – by creating background images, scanning copies of real cards, choosing colors – those customizations will sync over to their Windows Mobile device or iPhone.

Many of the other great new features focus on the completely redone Windows PC version. eWallet’s AutoPass, which fills in usernames and passwords on web sites so users don’t need to type their personal information, now works on Firefox as well as Internet Explorer.

eWallet for Windows has a brand-new interface too, making it easier than ever to work with. And for users accustomed to the older version of eWallet, there’s an option to turn on the Classic Style instead. There are several other styles to choose from, as well as color schemes and background options, so each user can give eWallet a personalized look.

The Windows version of eWallet has also been updated to help users work faster and smarter, with a new Recent Card list, Tooltips that offer pointers on using eWallet’s options, and a search function that displays results as the user types. There’s also an option to leave the program running when a wallet locks for security timeout, so users don’t have to wait for eWallet to load the next time they need to open their wallet.

eWallet 7.0 also introduces an easier syncing process for BlackBerry users, and Windows Mobile 6.5 users with touchscreen devices will find a fast new way to flip between cards by simply swiping across their screen.

Many other features and enhancements have been included in this new version as well. Complete information about eWallet can be found on Ilium Software’s website. Current eWallet owners looking to upgrade can learn more here.

eWallet 6.1.4 for BlackBerry includes many new features and enhancements to the award-winning password manager. One of the major changes is a brand-new interface designed to give BlackBerry Storm users a better experience working with their passwords and other personal information. The screenshot below shows eWallet on a Storm, displaying a sample Visa card - just one of the many types of info that eWallet protects. 

eWallet 6.1.4 for BlackBerry has many other improvements as well. The set up for first-time syncing is faster, allowing users to move through the process quickly and get their data where they want it. Scrolling speeds are also improved, so users with a large number of cards will easily be able to find what they need.

Another enhancement that saves time is the new Quick Search capability, letting users search their wallets for a specific card without having to look through various categories manually.

Apples2Oranges saves money by comparing the prices of two items, even when their sizes are not the same. For example, Apples2Oranges can calculate the better buy: 78 vitamins for $5.99 or 56 for $4.99. It also compares prices for items displayed in different units – like when one roll of wrapping paper is measured in feet, and another in meters. Apples2Oranges handles the conversion and comparison in one step. Users just enter the info and find out the real price per foot for each one.

In addition to price info, Apples2Oranges compares nutritional info, making it easier for people to watch what they eat. It comes in handy when labels list things like calories, sodium, and sugar in different serving sizes. So it’s simple to figure out which is better: a 1 cup serving of something with 300 calories, or a 180 milliliter serving with 200 calories.

Apples2Oranges is available now on the iTunes App Store for only $4.99 (USD). It pays for itself with the money saved after using it just a few times. More information about Apples2Oranges can be found on Ilium Software’s website.

Based on the popular FlexWallet for BlackBerry from WebIS, eWallet for BlackBerry is the first title from Ilium Software available for BlackBerry devices. eWallet for BlackBerry combines the best features of FlexWallet with additional improvements taken from Ilium Software’s own eWallet 6.1 for other platforms. eWallet users can now enjoy the safety and security they know and trust, along with the features and customization they want, on BlackBerry devices as well. Users will also be able to synchronize their data between their BlackBerry and the Windows PC version of eWallet with this latest release, making their important information readily available, wherever they are.

Ilium Software and WebIS are working to make the eWallet for BlackBerry transition simple for all FlexWallet owners. All eligible FlexWallet for BlackBerry licenses have been converted to eWallet licenses, so that eWallet’s upgrade policies and discounts will apply to current registered users of both FlexWallet and eWallet.

“We’re very glad that our partnership with WebIS has allowed us to include eWallet on the BlackBerry platform,” said Marc Tassin, Senior Product Manager at Ilium Software. “We know many of our users have been looking forward to eWallet on their BlackBerry devices, and we’re happy to add a new platform for users to keep their information safe and available wherever they are.”

“eWallet from Ilium Software has always been the de-facto wallet software on Windows Mobile and Palm and we are excited to bring eWallet to the BlackBerry for Ilium,” said Alex Kac, CEO of WebIS. “As the BlackBerry grows in popularity it’s fitting that the best wallet software is now available for it as well and I know we have many users who are thrilled to see it finally arrive.”

eWallet for BlackBerry will continue to be developed by WebIS. Ilium Software will provide full technical and purchase support to all users. Complete information, including upgrade details for current owners, can be found on Ilium Software’s website: http://www.iliumsoft.com/ewalletbb

“We’re very excited to release the search feature in eWallet for iPhone,” said Marc Tassin, Senior Product Manager at Ilium Software. “It has been one of the most-requested features from our users and we’re happy to give them a way to find their important information faster.”

More information about eWallet for iPhone can be found on Ilium Software’s website. eWallet can be purchased on the iTunes App Store for only $9.99 (USD).

In other eWallet news, Ilium Software also recently announced an open beta of the much-anticipated eWallet for BlackBerry.

Full details about the beta version can be found on Ilium Software’s blog.

The eWallet 6.1.4 release for the iPhone comes just two weeks after the release of Kings Corners, the first iPhone game from Ilium Software. Kings Corners, a solitaire-style game, combines luck and skill in a fun and fast card game that’s easy to learn, but challenging to master. Complete details about Kings Corners can be found on Ilium Software’s website.

Game play is quick, making Kings Corners the perfect distraction from long lines, waiting rooms, and all the otherwise boring parts of the day that can’t be avoided. But Kings Corners is also highly addictive, and players will soon find out that once they start playing, it’s really tough to stop!

Kings Corners is challenging enough for adults to enjoy, but so easy to play that even kids can learn it fast and have some fun. The idea is simple: try to get through a deck of 52 cards, matching pairs that add up to 10. The goal is to place all 12 face cards on the table in their designated spots. If a face card is dealt and there is no spot open for it on the table, the game is over. It takes strategy and luck to win Kings Corners, and it’s never the same game twice!

Kings Corners is available now on the iTunes App Store for only $0.99 (USD). More information about the game can be found on Ilium Software’s website.

The new release takes full advantage of Ilium Software’s SyncPro^® technology. SyncPro lets you synchronize your individual wallet cards from your Windows PC to an iPhone, iPod touch, Windows Mobile device, Palm OS handheld, BlackBerry device (coming soon), other computers, network servers, removable storage devices, and remote locations via FTP. SyncPro not only allows for entering information on a PC where it’s easier to type, but also provides a way to backup wallet files from the iPhone.

Built-in to the new Windows PC version of eWallet is a very easy-to-use Sync Setup option that lets you first pick your device type, and then indicate the type of synchronization you would like (full two-way synchronization, PC overwrites iPhone, or iPhone overwrites PC). Now users can update their wallets on their PC and their iPhone and know that their changes will be delivered to both locations.

The eWallet for iPhone update is available through iTunes and the on-device App Store for a special introductory price of $9.99 (USD); updates for existing eWallet for iPhone users are free. The Windows PC version of eWallet with SyncPro is available to current owners of eWallet for iPhone at the discounted price of $9.95. More information about the new release can be found on Ilium Software’s website.
