GoAmerica, Inc. (Nasdaq:GOAM), a leading wireless data and Internet services provider and Research in Motion Limited (RIM) (Nasdaq:RIMM)(TSE:RIM) today announced that the newly released Go.Web(TM) version 6.0 will be bundled with BlackBerry Wireless Handhelds(TM).
The combined offering features major new wireless advancements from both companies including BlackBerry wireless organizer synchronization from RIM (also announced today) and MobileClips(TM) from GoAmerica.
GoAmerica's Go.Web 6.0 features MobileClips, the first wireless tool of its kind to enable over-the-air mobile application installation, eliminating the need for synching with a computer via a cradle. This feature enables Go.Web users to choose and wirelessly install mobile applications that gather and display information from the Web or corporate intranets via BlackBerry Wireless Handhelds. Examples of such applications include wireless access to financial updates, travel information and corporate data. GoAmerica also intends to extend the MobileClips offering for Blackberry to support push alerts. This feature would, for instance, alert a user if a flight schedule were delayed or sales account information altered. Together GoAmerica and Research In Motion are offering a powerful solution to give users a more efficient and convenient way to wirelessly access important business information while away from the office.
"We are thrilled to build on our existing relationship with Research in Motion, integrating Go.Web 6.0 with Blackberry," said Joe Korb, president, GoAmerica, Inc. "The combined offering enables greater flexibility for the mobile professional, further freeing the enterprise from the office. The ability for our customers to access, not only email, corporate data and the Internet, but also the calendaring tools and business applications that typically reside on the desktop, is a true indication of how wireless technology means greater productivity for the enterprise."
"The power of wireless communications is the freedom and efficiency it provides the mobile professional, said Jim Balsillie, Chairman and Co-CEO, Research In Motion. "Go.Web 6.0 and the new MobileClips offering, is a strong complement to our BlackBerry solution. With support of PQAs and a broad range of Web content, MobileClips allows customers to easily and wirelessly track personalized information wherever they go."
