CeBit, Hanover, Germany March 19, 2004--FrogPad, Inc. and its strategic BluetoothTM solutions partner, Gennum Corporation (TSX: GND), will conduct a demonstration and announce the general availability of the BluetoothTM enabled FrogPad keyboard and headset. The new BluetoothTM keyboard incorporates FrogPad's patented algorithm and ergonomic layout designed around the 15 most-used letters in the Roman alphabet and the latest short-range wireless Bluetooth technology. The demonstration will be with Both Pocket OS and Palm OS PDAs, and Mac PowerBooks.
3g and 4g Mobile operators have demanded products that will offer PC capabilities in a PDA form factor. Miniaturized or folding keyboards are not fully functional or portable. Only the BluetoothTM FrogPad can boast that claim of portability, compactness, full sized keys, and full functionality. With these new high end products, FrogPad helps secure a place for BluetoothTM technology at the wireless table.
FrogPad will provide the definitive White Paper that cost justifies employee training time and mass adoption rate. FrogPad can demonstrate to Organizations cost savings and increased revenue by giving its field service and sales force and executives access to databases, e-mail, and internal network resources. This alone will generate the kind of data transmission and revenues that Mobile Operators have longed for.
Pioneering a new global standard for data entry, the FrogPad continues to be first to market in technology that impacts the mobile computing. Unlike QWERTY, whose design was derived from the limitations of 19th Century typewriter technology, the FrogPad offers a logical key layout and design that encourages correct ergonomic posture. Additionally, given its use of full-size keys, the FrogPad offers users of mobile computing devices, an effective alternative to the script-based or mini thumb keyboard platforms currently available. After an average of 8 hours of training and practice, most FrogPad users can achieve input rates of the standard 40 words per minute, as compared to the average of 10-20 words per minute by the fastest thumb typists.
FrogPad, Inc. and Gennum Corporation will also be demonstrating its first Bluetooth Headset named FROGTALK, for use with Bluetooth-enabled cell phones, PCs, Macs, PDAs, and Gamers. Professional mobile warriors will find premium sound and vocal experience with the FROGTALK which features Gennums patented FRONTWAVE technology. FRONTWAVE filters out background noise while simultaneously amplifying the voice of the userproviding a crystal-clear conversation environment.
In an effort to assist OEMs interested in developing their own Bluetooth-enabled FrogPad keyboards, FrogPad and Gennum will also unveil the licensing model of the single chip solution, which will incorporate FrogPad's unique algorithm with the BluetoothTM Human Input Device (HID) profile.. By incorporating the HID profile, FrogPad provides OEMs the assurance that their FrogPad products are Bluetooth-enabled out-of-the-box.
Leveraging Gennums expertise in developing technology for hearing instruments, FROGTALK provides unmatched balance in the ear, making it comfortable to wear for hours at a time. The headset is configurable to fit on the left or right ear and was designed to be installed and operated using just one-hand.
The headset can also be utilized without a cell phone to amplify and improve the sound quality of live conversations, especially in noisy environments, such as in airports, conventions centers, and military applications.
The lithium-polymer battery in FROGTALK features up to 6 hours of talk time and 200 hours standby time. The FROGTALK will be available in the online store of FrogPad in June 2004.
The industrial design for the BluetoothTM FrogPad, to be named the BlueFrog, is being done by Design Edge (www.designedge.com). Many exciting new products from FrogPad are on the horizon -- left-hand versions of all our products, a gaming version, a Chinese version, called BossFrog will be released on April 1st. For our Road Warriors, we will bundle our BlueFrog with FROGTALK along with Ziplinqs USB accessories for power and recharging.
