(TSE: ONE chart, msgs), an industry recognized leader in developing and providing communications and messaging solutions for targeted wired and wireless markets, and Glenayre Technologies (NASDAQ: GEMS chart, msgs), a leading developer of wireless messaging and unified communications products, today announced the terms of an agreement under which Glenayre will distribute 01 Communique's unified communications solutions with Glenayre's @ctiveLink product
Under the terms of their new agreement and a previously signed strategic relationship agreement, the companies will cooperate in the development of interfaces between 01 Communique's I'm InTouch unified communications solution and Glenayre's @ctiveLink two-way wireless messaging module. Each company will provide product marketing and support expertise and promote the interoperability of the products in their respective markets as part of their sales and business development initiatives. The result of this collaboration will be the combination of these two market leading products with the Handspring(TM) Visor(TM), one of the fastest selling Personal Digital Assistant's (PDA) in North America. As part of its standard product offering, Glenayre will pre-load the I'm InTouch software on @ctiveLink module which provides Always @ctive(TM) wireless functionality to the Visor PDA.
The integration of 01 Communique's unified communications software solutions and Glenayre's mobile communications solutions with the Handspring Visor will provide efficiency, portability and usability for people on the go, without compromising proprietary information or changing existing contact information. Handspring Visor users will now have the ability to wirelessly retrieve email, voicemail, fax and contact information.
"The companies that shape the unified communications market are those that can think globally, respond with agility and build strategic alliances," said Jim Kelly, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at Glenayre. "By providing the combined services of the @ctiveLink module and `I'm InTouch', Glenayre and 01 Communique are able to offer a unique and compelling solution that maximizes user productivity and data accessibility. This announcement is a stepping stone toward the future of global unified communications."
The Yankee Group has predicted that by 2003 there will be 112 million users of wireless email services across cellular/PCS, dedicated data and ReFLEX-based networks combined. Many of these will demand enhanced service capabilities that extend their current and future communications mediums to wireless enabled devices.
"With this always-on, always accessible solution, businesses will be able to efficiently transport data in multiple formats to their mobile workforce," said Andrew Cheung, CEO of 01 Communique. "Together, 01 Communique and Glenayre create a robust communications solution that greatly enhances users' ability to access their communications information from the office, down the hall and around the world. Additionally, carriers such as SkyTel, Arch Wireless, WebLink Wireless, Metrocall, Verizon Wireless, Bell Mobility, and PageNet Canada have an exciting new communications solution for their 55 million North American customers.
The @ctiveLink module, winner of Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association's (CTIA) Consumer Appliance Award, snaps seamlessly into the Springboard(TM) slot of the Handspring Visor handheld computer to wirelessly enable the powerful personal information management (PIM) utilities of the handheld. The @ctiveLink module provides Always @ctive(TM) constant connectivity to ReFLEX-based networks.
