URL(s): www.airspeak.com
MORGAN HILL, Calif --Dec. 4, 2001--AirSpeak, Inc., a wireless mobile products company providing innovative
mobile computing solutions, today announced enhanced wireless capabilities to their award-winning mobile tablet, FLAIR(TM). With the
upgraded version, FLAIR includes the fastest remote PC access software on the market, providing a more efficient and secure computing
environment for mobile workers with access to both the PC and server based computing.
"Decision makers are looking for a cost effective mobile solution to maximize productivity and effectiveness," noted Migdat Hodzic, PhD, vice
president of engineering and CTO, AirSpeak, Inc. "With our evolving efforts to constantly advance and improve our hardware and software
technologies and support increasing bandwidth, we are providing a single solution for mobile workers within a variety of vertical markets."
Key improvements include increased memory, an integrated upright stand, Calligrapher(TM) hand writing recognition, and support of many
advantageous tools including: Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) for Wide Area Network (WAN) use, GSM for Wide Area network
(WAN), improved utilities for third party software, smart card reader and bar code scanner drivers, and support for both direct sequence
(802.11b) and frequency hopping (Rangelan(TM)) wireless Local Area Networks (LAN) making FLAIR even more versatile than before.
FLAIR is customizable to the needs of any organization, with particular benefits being seen in health care, manufacturing and retail - industries
where the nature of many employees' jobs is inherently mobile. Using FLAIR, these industries have seen significant productivity increases by
providing computing resources to workers while they are mobile. In order to lower the cost of entry for businesses looking to provide mobile
employees with a wireless solution, AirSpeak has also lowered the price of FLAIR to US$1,895 for the full connectivity suite, including
FlairView PC Access software and US$1,695 for the thin client version.
