Using Baltimore Telepathy wireless e-security, Melody WAP Gateway provides corporate users with secure access to information within the corporate network using any WAP-enabled device.

Melody Interactive Solutions today launched its new secure WAP Gateway, Melody WAP Gateway, designed to enable secure access to email and corporate information from any WAP enabled device.

In addition, we are pleased to welcome Melody to the growing Baltimore Telepathy partner program," commented John Fallon, Director of Technical Market Development at Baltimore Technologies.
