air-trak.com and WaveWare Plan Palm-based Version of Wireless Transport for Vehicles  
SAN DIEGO, CA - Oct 15, 1999 

San Diego, CA - WaveWare Communications and air-trak.com, both headquartered in San Diego, today announced plans to integrate the air-trak Messenger system with the Palm Computing connected organizer. The air-trak Messenger in-vehicle wireless data system provides wireless data connectivity for portable devices docked in a vehicle. Using a national wireless data infrastructure, air-trak Messenger transports data to and from the mobile workforce seamlessly into the corporate SQL database for desktop access by corporate e-commerce applications. WaveWare's WaveSync, the premier synchronization server for the Palm Computingâ platform, enables remote synchronization of Palm data with corporate databases as well as remote access to electronic mail. WaveSync is particularly efficient in transporting Palm data over a wireless link, boasting a five-fold speed increase over Palm's built-in synchronization protocol.  

With the combination of WaveSync and air-trak Messenger products, mobile workers can use the Palm device for a variety of tasks, such as collecting data, entering orders, reading dispatch orders, accessing corporate information or reading e-mail. When the worker re-enters his vehicle between stops, he drops the Palm into the air-trak Messenger cradle and data is wirelessly exchanged between the corporate server and the Palm. This enables both the mobile worker and the corporation to work with the most recent data possible.  

Dennis Clark, President of air-trak.com said of the planned integration: "air-trak Messenger software provides the wireless link that enables Palm devices to become two-way wireless communication tools." Martha Dennis, CEO of WaveWare, adds: "WaveSync is the perfect companion for air-trak Messenger, enabling the extremely popular Palm class of devices to become essential equipment for the vehicle-based mobile worker."
