NEW YORK - October 26, 1999 - KenTech Inc., a full-service Internet systems integration
firm and developer of wireless Internet applications, today announced the company has
joined the Phone.comä Alliance Program as a developer of wireless Internet database
applications. These applications offer Phone.com's professional customer base with
communication solutions that will enable complete access to their company's Extranet to
get product information, check inventory or place orders and integrate remotely with the
e-mail, address books and calendar applications on the user's PC.
"eCountant is the first of many wireless Internet applications KenTech is designing
to empower the business community with solutions that offer wireless access to all their
vital office data as well as the ability to remotely communicate with the world,"
said Ken Nelson, President of KenTech. "Our alliance with Phone.com will strengthen
KenTech's leadership position in the wireless Internet applications market and help the
company better position itself for other synergistic industry partnerships."
KenTech's proprietary Extranet software, eCountant, is a Web-based catalog publishing
application that allows users without any HTML knowledge to manage a company's online
catalog and supports most online commerce systems including Microsoft Site Server and
Cybercash. In addition, eCountant allows users to publish private HDML-based commerce
catalogs to enable sales force automation. Catalog additions and updates can be performed
remotely via most Internet browser software or by using Phone.com-enabled wireless phones
or a wireless handheld interactive pager.
"KenTech's solutions have extremely advanced capabilities - beyond remote sending and
receiving of e-mails - to provide mobile sales people wireless applications to access
their company's catalog on an Extranet to check inventory, prices or place an order from
the road," said Kathy Simpson, Director of Developer Marketing for Phone.com.
"Phone.com is dedicated to encouraging the development of a wide range of
Internet-based services and applications that utilize our platform. Our alliance with
KenTech will enable the delivery of KenTech's innovative interactive business-to-business
e-commerce services to the wireless marketplace."
KenTech is a full-service Internet systems integration firm which develops and implements
wireless Internet database applications and communication solutions to support mobile
sales people using any wireless compliant Internet browser with complete access and
synchronization with their in-house Extranet, e-mail, address book and calendar
applications.
The Phone.com Alliance Program has two aims: to promote the concept of wireless
information access, and to co-ordinate the exchange of ideas and information between
Alliances Program members and companies developing wireless Internet products and
services.
