Hi Ed, here is some good news! Gordon PS I like the fact further exposure will be given in writing on the 18th. 9th place in all of silicon valley taint bad! Friday May 15, 1:59 pm Eastern Time Company Press Release Puma Technology Recognized by the Business Journal as One of the Top Ten Fastest Growing Public Companies in the Silicon Valley Leader in Synchronization Software Placed Ninth Out Of 100 Companies Researched For Most Rapid Market Growth In The Silicon Valley SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 15, 1998-- Puma Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:PUMA - news), the leading provider of advanced synchronization solutions for the handheld device marketplace, was recognized by The Business Journal as the ninth fastest growing public company out of the top 100 companies in the Silicon Valley. At a private reception held yesterday at the Hyatt St. Claire in downtown San Jose, The Business Journal honored the top 10 of the 100 fastest growing public companies in the Silicon Valley. Puma Technology's placement was determined after extensive research conducted by William O'Neil &Associates -- the same company that has ranked the fastest growing public companies on a national basis for Fortune Magazine -- proved that Puma's revenues have dramatically increased over the past five years. This revenues increase dramatically exceeded hundreds of companies in the Silicon Valley. In addition to the recognition Puma received from The Business Journal and other influential attendees at the awards reception, Puma will be profiled in the May 18, 1998 special issue of The Business Journal's focus on the ''100 Fastest Growing Companies'' in the Silicon Valley. In this corporate profile, co-founders Brad Rowe and Steve Nicol illustrate how Puma became a quick success in the mobile computing marketplace and how the two were able to achieve a dominant position in the industry. ''Steve Nicol and I have worked hard to make Puma's Intellisync(R) products a successful adjunct to the mobile device market,'' said Puma's President and CEO Brad Rowe. ''A key to the company's success has been our concentration on making partnership deals with major market players including handheld device vendors like 3Com, notebook PC manufacturers such as IBM and Toshiba, and leading phone providers like Nokia and AT&T. We continue to develop strategic relationships with key players and have successfully been able to provide intelligent data synchronization support to the broadest number of devices in the industry today. As a result, our Intellisync product family is the defacto standard for synchronization and we have made an impact around the world with our Intellisync solutions. Recognition from such a prestigious news source as The Business Journal is truly rewarding in that it illustrates how our efforts in pushing hard to become a leader in the industry have paid off.'' Puma views synchronization as one of the most critical driving factors propelling the growth of the mobile computing market, which encompasses organizers such as the new Palm III, the REX PC Companion, Windows CE devices, smart phones, and other such devices. Puma provides the broadest support for handheld devices and applications in the market providing users with the ability to easily and seamlessly update contact, calendar, memo and to-do list data in an intelligent fashion between a handheld device and PC-based applications. Without this ability, handheld devices are ''islands'' of information unable to effectively interact with other Personal Information Management (PIM) software applications in the PC world. The Intellisync family of synchronization software supports a wide variety of devices, including the 3Com PalmPilot connected organizers, the IBM Workpad, the Franklin REX PC Companion, the AT&TPocketNet Service-based phones, the Nokia 9000 and 9000i Communicators, the family of Sharp personal organizers, the Texas Instruments Avigo and family of personal organizers, all Windows CE-based handheld PCs, notebook computers and others.
