XYBR & KANA
Xybernaut Corporation (Nasdaq: XYBR ), a pioneer and
leader in the wearable computer industry, will go live
worldwide on the Internet from the Comdex Show in Las
Vegas at 3 PM EST, Wednesday, November 18, to
officially launch Xybernaut's newest wearable computer
system, the Mobile Assistant(R) IV (MA IV). Kanakaris
Communications, Inc. (OTC BB: KANA) is producing the
event. It can be seen by anyone with Internet access at
www.xybernaut.com and can also be accessed by links from
the home pages of several other websites including
www.fschannel.com, www.NetBooks.com,
www.cyberpop.com, www.kanakaris.com. The event will
also be archived for later viewing from the Xybernaut web
site.
There will be a hands-on presentation of the new MA IV,
with its 233 MHz MMX technology, up to 128 MB memory
and 4.3 GB hard drive, all packed into a tiny sub-two pound
standard WINTEL belt-worn module. The live presentation
will include new marketing announcements and answers to
the most frequently asked questions about Xybernaut's
wearable computer line. Among features to be presented will
be the breakthroughs in speech recognition and flat panel
display technology which make the MA IV a real assistant
for all kinds of working professionals, even those with little
computer knowledge or experience.
Participating in the webcast will be Steven Newman, Vice
Chairman and Director, Xybernaut Corporation and several
special guests including representatives of En Pointe,
Xybernaut's North America marketing, distribution and
customer support partner, and Xybernaut's European
marketing executives.
The live Internet program, produced for Xybernaut by its
new web design and downloadable content partner
Kanakaris Communications, Inc. (OTC BB: KANA),
comes at a time when interest level in the development of
wearable computing and pervasive computing is at a very
high level. Xybernaut's MA IV, which is manufactured by a
consortium of Japan's most prestigious organizations and is
protected by a strong patent position, has the power to let all
mobile users in a company participate in business
work-flows and electronic information sharing and
collection.
"The production MA IV is potentially the breakthrough
product that will do for full-function computer portability
what the Sony Walkman did for music listening portability.
This is less surprising when you realize that Kaz Toyosato, a
Sony executive, is part of the Xybernaut executive team,"
said Alex Kanakaris, CEO of Kanakaris Communications.
"We are proud to enable Xybernaut to reach a large
worldwide Internet audience to provide full details and a
working demonstration of this remarkable product," he
added.
Assisting Kanakaris in the live web production will be the
MobileNetics Corprporation providing extensive internet
bandwidth through the One Wilshire telecommunications hub
in L.A., and Kanakaris Acting Vice Chairman Frank
Firestone Ake providing editorial input.
