Communications technology is now fully untethered."
"Utilizing MessageASAP, the @ctiveLink module will provide Visor users with excellent message management capabilities, creating a new way for active people to communicate wirelessly," stated Jim Kelly, Senior Vice President -- Chief Marketing Officer at Glenayre.

Unified messaging industry analyst, Peter Davidson, of Davidson Consulting said, "OfficeDomain's robust suite of message management products has transitioned extremely well from the personal computer to the newest Internet information appliance -- the wireless PDA. Where other players in the unified messaging space have carved out specific niches, OfficeDomain has addressed the full spectrum of available messaging technologies. MessageASAP, a free product constituting the core of OfficeDomain's impressive product line, provides users the ability to receive virtually any kind of message using a single platform and to respond from the same platform in a manner that is appropriate to the recipient."
