B: Palm Organizers To Allow AOL E-Mail

NEW YORK, Jun 23, 1999 (AP Online via COMTEX) -- A new partnership
between America Online Inc. and 3Com Corp. will allow AOL's more than
17 million subscribers to receive, read and send e-mail using Palm
electronic organizers.

It is the first time AOL members will have access to their e-mail
accounts via a handheld computer.

Palm organizers will come bundled with the AOL software, and AOL will
offer a package that includes a Palm organizer, e-mail software and, if
necessary, a modem to its members, the companies announced in a
statement Tuesday.

Palm's III, IIIx and V product lines require a modem connection to
access, while the wireless VII does not.

A full-featured version of AOL for the Palm organizers, including
access to its online content and Instant Messenger, may be offered in
the future.

The two companies also are exploring distribution of AOL-branded
wireless handheld organizers based on 3Com's technology.

Palm Computing Inc. is a subsidiary of Santa Clara, Calif.-based 3Com.
AOL is based in Dulles, Va.
