HACKETTSTOWN, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 3, 1999--Alacrity Systems Incorporated, for years the major supplier of application software directly to the manufacturers of Multi-Function Peripherals (MFP's), announced today the release of E-Quip(R) 2...the software MFP. "It is no longer necessary to purchase additional hardware to get the full functionality of a MFP", said Ed Feldman, Alacrity's Director of Product Marketing. "Using E-Quip(R) 2 software and just about any scanner and modem, a user can now get all the functionality of a MFP without purchasing expensive hardware." The software is a full featured, e-mail enabled address book, fax, color copier, contact manager, tickler, alarm clock, reminder, phone dialer, rolodex, photo and image editor, viewer, Caller ID display and much more.

The E-Quip(R) 2 Address Book enables a user to send e-mail, faxes and even make voice calls, keeping all contact information readily available.

I said good news was coming; here it is:

FORT WORTH, Texas, Jun 8, 1999 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- FlashNet Communications (Nasdaq: FLAS), a national Internet service provider, and Intellesale.com, the online computer superstore, have agreed to co-promote and distribute PCs bundled with Internet access, with the goal of making affordable, reliable Internet service available to everyone who wants it. Intellesale.com is a subsidiary of Applied Cellular Technology (Nasdaq: ACTC).
For FlashNet the alliance has dual benefits. As the exclusive Internet service provider of all Intellesale.com computer products, the company can increase exposure to potential subscribers with an exciting hardware and service package. It also means expansion through the distribution channels of an aggressive online retailer. FlashNet believes the agreement is the perfect marriage of two like-minded Internet companies.
"This is the type of association that increases our exposure exponentially from day one. Intellesale.com has an impressive track record and an established customer base. We're proud to associate FlashNet's reliable Internet access with their quality computer products," said Russell Wiseman, executive vice president and chief sales and marketing officer for FlashNet.
The agreement is in line with FlashNet's focus on developing distribution and marketing relationships with emerging and leading online retailers.
For Intellesale.com, the agreement means offering a value-added service to customers' purchases and access to FlashNet's 200,000 existing subscribers, many of whom may be in the market to buy new equipment or upgrade their PC.
"We're impressed with FlashNet's aggressive approach to marketing. There are definite synergies in the audiences we both want to reach and the type of services we want to provide," said Marc Sherman, president and chief executive officer for Intellesale.com.
"This agreement has the potential to expand our customer base and will add another important distribution channel for our products," Sherman adds.
Intellesale.com offers a novel concept in online shopping, providing a multi-faceted "virtual showroom" of new original equipment manufacturer (OEM) product offerings and refurbished items. Intellesale.com's product catalogue offers more than 100,000 products for sale and can be found at www.Intellesale.com.
