In a confusingly enterprise move, youth-targeting Helio has just announced that their "Ultimate Inbox" service available on the Helio Mysto, Helio Fin, and Helio Ocean handsets is now push-email enabled. Not only will Helio actively push emails to your Helio from any Gmail, Yahoo!, Hotmail email account, but the new push-email service is said to [...]

It seems YouTube is on everyone’s mind recently. Even gabber-extraordinaire Oprah had YouTube’s founding team featured on her show. So, it’s not surprising (well, it is a little surprising) to hear that Helio has rolled out full YouTube functionality for their flagship (and old) Helio Ocean handset. Unlike other limited YouTube applications, Helio’s YouTube offerings boasts the “most complete YouTube experience currently available on mobile.” What makes it so compete? Well, how does instant-uploading, geo-tagged videos (using the Ocean’s GPS capability), and a log-in feature sound? And, as another bonus, Helio is giving its Ocean-users free-access to the new YouTube application. All you Helio Ocean owners can look for the new application today. Read on for more pics.

The Helio Ocean has traditionally been marketed towards the younger, hipper set , but it looks like Helio is turning up the enterprise appeal on the Helio Ocean. In an effort to make the Helio Ocean an enterprise-class handset, Helio has made available a couple new software packages that should help mobilize office duties. The new Helio File Viewer allows any Helio Ocean user to view Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Adobe PDF files - giving them the option of zooming around within the document, switch between landscape and portrait views, and sort by file type. Helio File Viewer also supports an expanded number of image formats (BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG, WMF, EMF). Helio has also released an upgraded Mail for Microsoft Exchange application . The new Mail for Microsoft Exchange gets bumped up to v1.2 and improves the calendar, alert, and sync-ing capabilities of the Helio Ocean. “Ocean’s unique dual-slide design and comprehensive messaging suite lets members communicate with friends, family and business associates in unique ways,” said Darshan Patel, Director of Email Communications at Helio. “The addition of Helio File Viewer makes staying in touch easier and more effective for business users with the ability to view documents wherever members take their Oceans.” Now you can grab a refreshed (read: refurbished), lower-priced Helio Ocean to help you with your daily office tasks. We’re not sure if the Helio Ocean is the best handset for smartphone-ing, but at just $ 99 , it’s at least a damn good deal.
