GoodInfo lets corporate users access vital company information stored in Web-based applications - right from a wireless handheld - using standards based technologies such as Extended Markup Language (XML), Common Gateway Interface (CGI), and Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

"Cingular is committed to offering choices for customers who enjoy and depend on the reliability of Cingular's Mobitex network." said Tim Hogan, executive director of B2B channel marketing and event management for Cingular Wireless. "The G100 and GoodInfo make Xpress Mail GoodLink Edition a complete mobile information solution for the enterprise. It's ideal for businesses that want to deploy mobile technology quickly and maximize their return on investment."

The G100 runs Xpress Mail GoodLink Edition, Cingular's newest wireless corporate e-mail service that features:

Zero desktop install - The solution is entirely server-based;
Wireless two-way sync - All services, including email, calendar, contacts, tasks, and notes, are wirelessly synchronized;
Attachment viewing - Secure attachment viewing for MS Word, MS Excel, MS PowerPoint, WordPerfect, HTML, PDF, and RTF documents.

The G100 expands Cingular's Mobitex device portfolio with its sophisticated design that features a clear, crisp grayscale display screen and an ergonomically designed quick-type thumb keyboard for an excellent typing experience on a small form-factor device. The G100 also enables one-handed use by both left-handed and right-handed users thanks to an ambidextrous navigation bar, dedicated command buttons such as Home, Escape and Menu, and discrete left and right scrolling buttons.
