CellPhoneSoft releases File Associate for UIQ 3

UIQ is dead! But not for CellPhoneSoft, one of the most active software houses that still supports UIQ and who has produced File Associate, which can assign different applications to open files. For example, it can associate .DOC files with Docs To Go instead of the built-in Quickword. And it has a generic viewer to view .ZIP, SWF and TXT files too!

File Associate lists and lets you change what applications are used to open various document files. You can select alternative viewers for all popular file types like DOC, PDF, JPG, MP3, etc. The newly assigned associations take effect when you open files from a file manager.

The accompanied Generic viewer application supports viewing flash, ZIP, text and binary files. When clicking on a file, you will never again encounter the "Unrecognized file format" message!

These two applications provide a kind of customization that was never before possible on Symbian UIQ or S60 phones.

Major features:
- Lists the file type associations on the phone.
- Changes what viewer application is started when opening a document file (available on SonyEricsson phones).
- Includes Generic viewer application for viewing ZIP, text and binary files.
- Supports viewing local flash files using the Opera Flash Plug-in.
