Mobile user technology

It's advancing fast!

Hardware, operating systems and software applications for hand-held mobile technology have seen huge changes in the past 12 months. Microsoft continues to invest billions in technology that underpins their 'Your data, any place, any time' strategy and now the rush is on to meet the growing worldwide demand for quality smartphones.

The concept of the 'all in one' hand held device is challenging the desktop and laptop domination of data processing and on premise office applications.

Today's mobile phone devices come with email and Office Mobile Suites including Excel, Word and PowerPoint; radio, video players, portable gaming, digital cameras, GPS and mp3 players.

StudyHearLibrary and the internet

The StudyHearLibrary is a Microsoft Partner committed to the use of the worlds leading digital media client and server technologies.

SHL files are compressed down into formats suitable for Android, IOS or Windows Mobile technology, delivered from the cloud.

Our bite sized audio products are made for rapid download direct to your mobile device.

With very cost effective removable 32GB memory cards already available for portable devices, there is now plenty of room for you to store your pictures, music, documents and SHL audio files on cards the size of a postage stamp.

File size and download speeds?

Each StudyHearLibrary topic file is roughly 0.4MB in size. This means, that with currently available mobile bandwidth, the average time that it takes to download one item is seconds.*

We continue to explore new ways of keeping the audio content at the right quality whilst driving file sizes down to a minimum.

* Subject to normally available network performance.

"Just made all the difference to me. I switch between the books, SHL and practice papers; it adds variety to my work." - TC
