<<Jim i hold very little Amzn you follow?>> Gotcha!! But Mark, I can't recall you telling us that you ever sold a share of Amazon. Ps Look at Cntr over the weekend. <<Redwood Shores, California, Nov. 19 (Bloomberg) -- Centura Software Corp. agreed to work with Sweden's Nocom AB to create programs that help provide Internet access on wireless phones, sending the software maker's shares up as much as 67 percent. Terms weren't disclosed. Nocom makes software that uses Wireless Application Protocol, or WAP, which allows cellular phone users to do a variety of tasks such as read e-mail or buy movie tickets. The agreement lets Centura use WAP for its eSNAPP software, which provides mobile access to data. Software companies like Centura that help provide Internet and data services beyond personal computers have benefited from the rising demand for mobile computing devices. Centura agreed last week to team with Germany's SAP AG to create programs that will give users access to information networks from hand-held devices. ``What's really driving our stock is deeper than just two press releases,' said Scott Broomfield, chairman, chief executive and president of Centura. ``It has to do with idea that what enterprises need to do is to extend their information out to the individual and that will bring about the information- appliance computing age.' Centura rose 1 13/16 to 6 in late trading of 12.9 million, making it the 11th most active in U.S. markets. The Redwood Shores, California-based company's shares rose as high as 7 and are up more than fivefold this year. Nocom rose 8.5 kronor, or 8.5 percent, to 169. WAP Phones Nokia OYJ, the biggest maker of cellular phones, said in October it expects WAP-based wireless phones will comprise 60 percent of the market by 2003. Nokia's 7110 phone model with WAP will reach consumers in the next few weeks. Centura hopes to convince Nokia, which has worked with Nocom on other products, to use the software in its WAP phones. Centura would then customize the software for companies who want to use Nokia phones to obtain information from the Internet and their own intranets. Centura plans to produce limited quantities of the software in the first few months of next year. Nov/19/1999 15:44 >>
