Cingular Wireless Eliminates Data Loss Risk With NetMotion Mobility XE

Wireless Users Protected Against Connection Losses on Wireless
Devices ATLANTA, Dec. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Cingular Wireless today
introduced NetMotion Wireless' Mobility XE(TM), which ensures that
handheld and laptop- based mobile applications remain available for
data input and activity even if the user travels outside a wireless
coverage area or across diverse networks. The innovative solution
then resumes the wireless session automatically once the mobile
device regains contact with the wireless network. The solution,
which is available through Cingular's direct sales organization, is
a mobile virtual private network (VPN) that is easily installed on
the mobile user's Windows-based device. It provides an encrypted
tunnel for wireless data, and allows applications to remain in
operation even if the connection to the wireless network is
interrupted. When connectivity is regained, the mobile user can
resume their work without the need re-start the application, or
their VPN. This enhances the productivity of mobile workers needing
access to critical data on wirelessly-enabled notebooks and
handhelds, such as law enforcement and fire personnel, paramedics
and home healthcare nurses. NetMotion Wireless' Mobility XE(TM)
also features data compression and optimization capabilities that
give customers the ability to extend even more internal processes
and legacy applications into a wireless environment. The solution
allows customers to mobilize applications that otherwise would not
function well in a wireless environment by reducing protocol
overhead and chattiness, and compressing data and Web images.
Customers can do so without modifying their applications or
upgrading them to special, wirelessly enabled versions, or
performing expensive development work. "Cingular's new Mobility
XE(TM) solution from NetMotion Wireless eliminates the risk of
having applications interrupted and data lost, particularly when
responding to emergency situations," said Laura Johnson, senior
director, enterprise solutions, for Cingular Wireless. "Mobile
workers are able to pick up where they left off even if they
temporarily travel out of coverage. This ability to maintain
continuous and secure application access will provide our
government customers with an even higher level of comfort and
confidence when working in a mobile environment. And the same
benefits apply to the enterprise." "Reliable and continuous mobile
access to mission-critical information is imperative for our
customers who depend on accurate data and applications without
fail," said Tom Johnston, senior vice president, products and
marketing for NetMotion Wireless. Mobility XE(TM) is invaluable to
any government agency or business where mobile communication plays
a role in the organization's success." NetMotion Wireless' Mobility
XE(TM) scales from a pilot program with a few mobile workers to a
production installation supporting thousands with ease, making it a
viable solution for organizations of varied sizes and demands.
