Company Press Release
Systemax Selects Softlink's eMail VOICELink for Voice Communication and
Voice Recognition Bundle for PC Consumers
SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 10, 1999--Softlink, Inc. (OTC
BB: SFLK), the leader in multimedia email software, today announced
Systemax's selection of eMail VOICELink(TM) for an ''industry first''
bundle of Voice Communication and Voice Recognition tools on the PC. The
Bundle, an option available on any PC, includes eMail VOICELink,
multimedia email software from Softlink, an AC-100 Speech Recognition
Headset / Microphone from Cyber Acoustics, and Web 3.0 from Conversa.
Other voice products are under consideration for addition to the VR and
Voice Communication Bundle in the future.
''Speech and voice recognition and communication products have been
available since the early 90's but for the most part were distributed in
the retail channel and then only as individual products,'' said Kent
Markley, president for Midwest Micro, a subsidiary of Systemax. ''The VR
and Voice Communications bundle demonstrates the latest method of consumer
interaction with the PC. We believe this is an industry first - the
preloading of a VR and Voice Communication bundle designed to provide our
customers with an exceptionally intuitive multimedia communication
experience out of the box.''
''Computer buyers today will use their PCs for communicating over the
Internet. Our product, eMail VOICELink, gives them an easy-to-use tool for
adding voice to their email,'' said Carol Prior, vice president of Sales
for Softlink. ''This bundle is a perfect comprehensive solution to
bringing voice use to today's computer consumers.''
''The VR and Voice Communication bundle is the first that allows the
computer manufacturer to value add their system with hardware and software
that makes sense for the end user,'' said Bob Santella, sr. vice president
of Sales, Cyber Acoustics. ''We have developed a unique partnership that
is directed at web browsing and multimedia e-mail - the (2) top
applications for today's computer users. By including a speech recognition
headset / microphone, the end user can use the AC-100 headset/ microphone
unit for accurate speech recognition software and to send VOICELink
multimedia email without having to upgrade the microphone hardware.''
