Handmark previews new Wireless Express mobile information application

Handmark previewed Handmark Express, a new information system for wireless devices at the 2004 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. The product is a wireless information application designed to make the most wanted information faster and easier to access than with the micro-browsers found on wireless PDAs and smartphones.

According to Handmark vice president, Douglas Edwards, "Handmark Express was created for the mobile device user who is always on the go, but wants to stay in the know with what's happening. We capture that idea with the product slogan GO. KNOW." Edwards added, "Express delivers news, weather, sports, and much more, and delivers it almost instantly on demand and automatically with user scheduled updates."

The first release of the new Handmark Express wireless application will be available in March of 2004 and will support both Palm OS and Window Mobile Pocket PC and smartphones.
