Mobility Awards Honor the Best and Finest Mobile Computing and Wireless Data Communications Products and Services

Dublin, Ireland, January 23 2006 - MobileAware, the world leader in enabling the creation and delivery of mobile data services, today announced that it has received a "best mobile software" award from MobileTrax LLC, a leading professional services firm that focuses on the mobile computing and wireless data communications industry. The 2006 Mobility Awards honor the best and finest mobile computing and wireless data communications products and services and include categories such as accessories, components, handhelds, notebooks, security, software, storage, wireless data and LANs and WANs. MobileAware's Mobile Interaction Server (MIS) was selected as the industry's best mobile software for enabling advanced, device-independent content rendering, ensuring that mobile content is created once and dynamically optimized to support the full characteristics of any mobile device, including mobile phones, PDAs, PCs, ATMs and Digital TV.

"There's a need to honor the best and finest mobile computing and wireless data communications products and services," said J. Gerry Purdy, Ph.D. Chief Analyst with MobileTrax LLC. "The annual Mobility Awards have become known as the premier award program in the mobile and wireless industry."

“Recognition of our products from MobileTrax is mirrored by the strong demand we are experiencing for our products across a variety of industries and geographies,” commented Kevin McCloskey, CEO at MobileAware. “Market leaders such as BEA Systems, Ericsson and Nokia have already recognized the clear value of our technology by embedding it within their own mobile platforms. Another notable trend is that a number of leading companies are switching to MobileAware-based solutions after they were unable to successfully implement their mobile data service using competitive offerings.”

Mobile Interaction Server is being used by some of the world’s leading operators in a range of different deployments, including a robust content download platform for Australia’s largest telecommunications operator, Telstra, a mobile portal service deployment in the world’s largest GSM operator, China Mobile, and a mobile workforce solution in Ireland’s largest mobile operator, O2. Mobile Interaction Server also powers some of the most innovative mobile customer self-service and mobile workforce applications across a wide variety of industry sectors in all major geographies. These include a mobile workforce application for the world’s largest airline, American Airlines, a mobile customer self-service solution for French national railway company, SNCF, and a mobile media information service for Il Sole 24 Ore, Italy’s leading publisher of financial news.
