SLPT going to go on news. SoloPoint(R) Mobile Phone Companion Products to be Sold Through QUALCOMM's NewInternet Web Store LOS GATOS, Calif., March 19 /PRNewswire/ -- SoloPoint, Inc. (Nasdaq: SLPT), a provider of advanced personal call management products, announced today that QUALCOMM Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM) has begun selling SoloPoint's M-200 Mobile Phone Companion product through the Company's new e-commerce QUALCOMM Web Store at qualcomm.com . Introduced in the summer of 1998, the M-200 Mobile Phone Companion is targeted to mobile and virtual office workers who need to be accessible but are often mobile, moving about throughout the day. The M-200 is a small telephone accessory, about the size of a paperback book, that transparently connects your home or office phone number to your wireless phone with a unique feature called "remote call screening." When the M-200 detects an incoming call on the home or office line, it places an outgoing call to the user's wireless phone which will ring simultaneously with the office phone. As a caller begins leaving a voice message, the user can listen in undetected on their wireless phone, deciding whether to take the call and speak with the caller or to allow the caller to simply finish leaving their message, completely unaware the call was being screened. The M-200 will inter-operate with a variety of messaging systems including telephone company Voice Mail, the Voice Mail associated with the user's wireless phone, a corporate Voice Mail system or an answering machine. An added safety and convenience feature of the M-200 makes it possible for the user to return a caller back to Voice Mail after conversing with them so that they can leave additional information, such as directions or a mailing address -- information that might be either unsafe or inconvenient for the user to attempt to write down while driving or walking. "QUALCOMM is a recognized leader in marketing wireless technology and their new e-commerce site provides an exciting new channel for the M-200," said Arthur Chang, president and CEO of SoloPoint. "This reinforces our recent announcement of our own SoloPoint e-commerce web store."
