Route1 Announces Initial Mobi Solution Sales to Financial Services Sector

TORONTO, July 5 /CNW/ - Route1 (TSX-V:ROI), an innovator in wireless
remote computing, today announced early sales of its groundbreaking Mobi
Solution to a number of Canadian firms in financial services. The customers
have been pilot testing Route1's solution since May 2005.
"We are pleased with our pilot program progress and our ability to
convert testing efforts into sales," said Andrew White, CEO Route1. "Clearly,
our Mobi Solution is delivering the results that businesses are looking for in
today's mobile computing systems. Our goal is to continue focus on financial
services, among other sectors, as prime targets for our solution."
"The Mobi Solution meets all our requirements for secure mobile
computing," said Richard Stone, President and CEO, Stone & Co. Limited, a
national mutual fund company. "Route1's design allows our sales managers to be
productive in the field without having to carry any applications and data with
them. More importantly, our IT staff doesn't need to manage remote
configurations or worry about sensitive data residing on the remote devices."
Route1's Mobi Solution automatically utilizes all of the existing
wireless and mobile network infrastructures available today -- data cellular,
WiFi, and LAN -- to give users seamless and secure control of their desktop
and corporate data. The solution comes pre-configured with all the
functionality and essential security requirements that allow users to remotely
operate their office applications, but unlike existing remote access
solutions, all applications and data with the Mobi Solution remain safely
behind the corporate firewall.
"The core of the Mobi Solution is our MobiNET(TM) service developed
around our proprietary workSecure(TM) technology and Seamless Workspace(TM)
design," said White. "MobiNET ensures users remain connected, safely switching
between networks while managing secure sessions even in the middle of document
edits. The remote computing experience is just like being at your office."
The Mobi Solution consists of the MobiBook PRO device that is based on
hardware from Psion Teklogix, a 2.4 lbs. full-featured, solid-state handheld
computer with an Intel XScale processor running Microsoft Windows CE.NET 4.2.
The unit includes a resistive touch screen for pen navigation and 58-key  
touch-type keyboard. It comes with an AC adapter and can run for up to
10 hours on battery. Internet connectivity is provided via wired Ethernet,  
Wi-Fi (802.11b), GSM/GPRS/EDGE or CDMA 1xRTT (an optional serial modem is also
available) and is easily upgradeable to new high-speed wireless networks, such
as WiMAX, as they become available. The system comes configured with
MobiRemote(TM) and MobiHost(TM) software that manage and integrate all the
necessary connections and session security, which is based on RSA KEON and RSA
BSAFE technologies, through the MobiNET service.
The Mobi Solution is available directly from Route1 at 1-866-286-7330 or
route1.com. The MobiBook PRO device carries a suggested retail price of
Cdn $1995 and the MobiNET service is available as an annual subscription at
$240. Customers can also lease a bundle including the MobiBook PRO with
extended 3-year warranty, the MobiNET service, a wireless data card and    
all-you-can-use cellular data service, at $199.95 monthly.
