You need to read the rest of the release:

Licensing and Availability

A fully functional version of Certicom's movianVPN software (English- language version) will be available to all HP Jornada 560 series PDA users via download at launch, after which corporations can license the movianVPN software directly from Certicom.

They're "bundling" their client will all kinds of vendors now...Cisco, Nortel, HP (sort of) and Sierra Wireless. Based on what I've seen, though, they're not getting any money from it, rather they'll get revenue if/when corporations license the client from them.

So do they give away fully functional software and then say, "Oh, but if you want to use it, you have to pay us" ???? Or is there some kind of an eval period built into the client so after 30 days it explodes?

I don't get it. Maybe I missed something along the way.
