Strategy.com(TM), the world's first Personal Intelligence Network(TM), today announced that they joined the WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) Forum, a global industry association dedicated to promoting WAP, a world standard for providing internet access and advanced telephony services on wireless devices. Strategy.com will join companies from all segments of the wireless industry, including AT&T Wireless Services, Bell Atlantic Mobile and IBM Corporation, to empower users with wireless devices to gain access to information anytime, anywhere. Strategy.com is a business unit of MicroStrategy(R) Incorporated (Nasdaq: MSTR), a leading worldwide provider of Intelligent E-Business(TM) software.

Strategy.com works with leading companies to deliver personalized information to consumers via email, telephone, wireless devices and the Internet. As a member of the WAP Forum, Strategy.com can extend its ability to "push" important information to users. With WAP, Strategy.com users will be able to actively access information and services -- such as sports scores, weather updates and financial information -- using only their digital mobile phone. WAP technology also will ensure that Strategy.com subscribers can react to their personalized alerts about investments, weather, news, sports and traffic by enabling them to trade shares of stock, buy merchandise, and make travel reservations by simply pressing a button on their cell phone.

"Joining the WAP Forum is part of our commitment to deliver the most robust and technologically-advanced services to millions of people all over the world," said Michael Saylor, president and CEO of MicroStrategy Incorporated. "Strategy.com already provides users with a highly-personalized and convenient way to monitor market activity and react to situations that are important to them, saving them time, money, and effort. Using WAP technology enables Strategy.com to also provide a wireless gateway so users can always access and act on the information that is important to them even if they are on the go."
