Wherify Wireless Expands Online Distribution With Costco.com; Leading Retailer to Distribute Wherifone GPS Locator Phone via E-Commerce Site
September 06, 2006 08:01 AM US Eastern Timezone
REDWOOD SHORES, Calif.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—Sept. 6, 2006—Wherify Wireless, Inc. (OTCBB:WFYW), a leading developer of wireless location products and services, today announced that its breakthrough Wherifone® GPS Locator Phone is initially available through leading retailer Costco's online sales site, Costco.com. The Wherifone is the world's first GSM/GPS locator cell phone designed for children and seniors. The two-way cell phone has built-in Aided-GPS location and "managed dial" features that give on-the-go parents the peace of mind of being able to quickly locate and communicate with their young children and elderly relatives, while also controlling who they can call and how much it will cost.
"We're excited to be working with a leading retailer with the experience and reach of Costco to reach out to consumers through their Costco.com e-commerce site," said Timothy Neher, CEO and Founder of Wherify Wireless. "Working with them allows us to make the Wherifone broadly available to consumers across the country."
The Wherifone GPS Locator Phone will retail for $99.95, and fixed-usage Wherify Family Locator Service plans that include both voice and location services start at just $19.95 per month. The competitively priced, all-inclusive service plans are straightforward and easy to understand, and there are no hidden costs for additional required services, so parents always know exactly what to expect. A Rate Protection Plan is also available to help save money when actual usage exceeds the current service plan's limit. Under the Rate Protection Plan, when a subscriber goes over their basic monthly limit their plan automatically adjusts itself to the most cost-effective service plan rather than blindly racking up overage charges. Their service plan then automatically resets back to the basic plan at the beginning of each month.
About The Wherifone
The Wherifone is the world's first GSM/GPS locator cell phone designed for children and seniors. The two-way cell phone has built-in Aided-GPS location and "managed dial" features that give on-the-go parents the peace of mind of being able to quickly locate and communicate with their young children and elderly relatives, while also controlling who they can call and how much it will cost. Wherify's Aided-GPS performance will vary, but often provides location results in places where conventional GPS solutions may have performance issues, such as in many types of wood frame buildings and vehicles, and under dense foliage. The Wherifone's patented Aided-GPS location solution is supported by the Wherify Global Location Service Center, which maintains information on all the GPS satellites in space through a series of GPS Reference Receivers, and applies location information into Wherify's mapping and location management system to let users see a device's position displayed on a map or aerial photograph.
About Wherify Wireless, Inc.
Wherify Wireless, Inc. (OTCBB:WFYW) is a pioneering developer of personal location products and services, as recognized by the Smithsonian Institution Museum's adoption of Wherify Wireless' groundbreaking first product, the Child Locator, into permanent display as the world's first commercial personal GPS tracking device. With three U.S. patents granted in the areas of personal location and position tracking and four more patents pending in the area of GPS locator phones, Wherify Wireless continues to be a leader in location technology development by integrating Aided-GPS location into a GSM cellular platform that has been demonstrated on over 100 GSM networks world-wide. Wherify Wireless' expertise in GPS technology for wireless devices and its patented back-end location service engine enable customers to obtain real-time location information on individuals and property directly through the Internet or any phone.

Parco Wireless Set to Release World Class Tracking System
Précis Line of Tracking Products Available by Year’s End
PORTLAND, MAINE – SEPTEMBER 7, 2006
Parco Wireless, the leading provider to healthcare of real time tracking technology has unveiled plans for the release of a new product line based upon its next generation of ultra-wideband (UWB) tracking systems.
According to Parco’s founder and CEO Scott Cohen, the new systems should begin to appear at client hospitals by the end of the year. Called “Précis” (pronounced “prey-sis”), the new line of products includes the latest achievements in active RFID technology. States Mr. Cohen, “this new product offering represents a major shift in the way tracking will be accomplished in the future. Historically we believed we presented the most robust tracking solutions available to hospitals. Even so, the market demanded overall improvement in what we offered. Our new Précis product line represents marked improvement in tag and receiver designs, as well as enhanced performance capabilities when compared to our earlier systems”. Mr. Cohen then adds, “Hospitals will be very pleased with both the costs of these newer systems and the better performance they can expect.”
Précis incorporates Time Domain Corporation’s Pulson™ ultra-wideband technologies in its design. The new line will include a full suite of products that include assets tags, patient wristbands, personnel badges and two design type readers.
According to company leadership, the new Précis tags and receivers will help dispel all misconceptions about the higher cost of implementing a UWB tracking system. While the cost of UWB tracking technologies were historically higher when compared to competing technologies such as Infrared (IR) or WiFi systems, many hospitals felt compelled to hold off on implementing a UWB active RFID tracking system despite the superior benefits UWB systems offered. “Hospitals will no longer need to compromise performance, accuracy, and reliability for costs to acquire a tracking system” states Michael Farnsworth, the chief software architect behind Précis. He adds that “In the past IR and WiFi made it easy to buy because of the low cost. But many hospitals came away disappointed with the performance they were seeing with these technologies. They liked what they saw with Parco’s performance capabilities, but were put off by the higher costs.” Citing tags that now cost around $19, Farnsworth concludes, “Précis is now affordable for any size hospital, it will outperform any tracking technology out there. Compromise is no longer necessary”.
The entire Précis line has been designed from the ground up to support various installations in the healthcare field. The new Précis readers are aesthetically designed for hospital and clinical environments. Receivers casually blend into the hospital environment using an innovative ceiling mount design that works with most acoustic and hard plaster ceilings.
The various Précis tags revolve around a basic yet versatile design that makes them suitable for mounting to moveable assets, attaching to patient wristbands, or to caregivers. They report location data once every second with over 98% reliability.
The locations of the tags are tracked by UWB readers installed at fixed locations within a medical facility providing the location of patients, caregivers, and equipment within accuracy of 1.5 feet. The tags use extremely low-power as evidenced by their average life of over four years using a single 3 volt battery.
All Parco Précis products are branded with the PulsON Powered™ certification mark which identifies them as genuine, licensed Time Domain UWB products employing Time Domain’s patented PulsON® technology. The Parco Wireless products are available through technology wholesalers such as CDW and healthcare information system developers such as Patient Care Technology Systems. A full list of authorized resellers and developers is available on Parco’s website www.parcowireless.com.

RIM Targets Consumer Market With BlackBerry Pearl
SEP 07, 2006 11:38:28 AM
Research In Motion (RIM), producer of the widely used BlackBerry handheld device, will soon release its newest offering, the BlackBerry Pearl. The Waterloo, Ontario-based firm is targeting the vast consumer market—and veering away from its traditional focus on business users—with such new features as a 1.3-megapixel digital camera, a memory-card port and a music player that can be used while performing other functions, The New York Times reports.
The new Pearl will initially be available exclusively through T-Mobile, and it will go for $200 with a two-year service agreement, according to the Times. T-Mobile currently offers 1,000 minutes of talk time and unlimited Web access for $70 a month, the Times reports.
 BlackBerry Pearl |
The Pearl gets its name from the dime-sized, glowing ball positioned just below its display, which is used to navigate the various functions like a mini-mouse, according to the Times. The ball can be used to move left and right—not just up and down—and users need only depress it for various lengths of time to perform different functions, the Times reports.
BlackBerrys have become an essential tool for corporate users in recent years, due largely to their “push” e-mail functionality, or the ability to receive and show electronic messages the moment they arrive, as well as the fact that they wirelessly connect to work e-mail accounts so changes made via the handheld carry over to PCs. Consumer users have been slower to jump on the BlackBerry bandwagon, as the handhelds have tended to contain fewer bells and whistles and were less “chic” than phones offered by firms like Motorola and Palm.
RIM a couple of years ago tried its hand in the consumer space with the BlackBerry 7100, and it cut down the average BlackBerry size by squeezing two letters onto its 14, easy-to-click keys, but its reception was less than noteworthy, according to the Times. Since the buttons each had two characters, the BlackBerry 7100 also came pre-installed with a software called SureType, which helps to form words from the jumble of letters that appear when a user types the first few letters of a word, the Times reports. For instance, a person looking to type the word “get” would need to press the GH, ER and TY buttons, but that combination could also be used to type “hey.” In such instances, multiple word options appear below the word in question, according to the Times. SureType works to determine the appropriate words, and it even remembers specific word combinations over time, the Times reports.
The Pearl uses a version of the SureType keyboard software, and the Times identifies it as one of the device’s “weak spots.” Its meager 3.5-hour battery life for talk time was also cited by the Times as one of its weaknesses.
Among the phone’s strengths the Times mentions are its appearance and size—it’s shiny black and chrome and “incredibly tiny” at 4.2 by 2 by 0.6 inches—its Bluetooth connectivity and the fact that it operates on a GSM phone network, meaning it can function overseas. The BlackBerry Pearl has a 240-by-260-pixel color screen that also functions as a flashlight, a speakerphone, voice-dialing capabilities, movie playback, and built-in AOL, Yahoo, MSN and ICQ instant messaging, according to the Times. Users can even read PDF and PowerPoint files, as well as make changes to spreadsheets and documents, using the Pearl, the Times reports.

Wednesday September 6, 9:56 pm ET
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 6 /PRNewswire/ — Unefon Holdings, S.A. de C.V., a company controlled by Ricardo B. Salinas, owner of 44.4% of Unefon's capital (BMV: UNEFON) — a Mexican mobile telephony operator for the mass market — and of 50% of the capital of Cosmofrecuencias — wireless Internet access provider-announced today that it is confident of the outlook of wireless communications market in Mexico. Therefore, its Board of Directors approved the acquisition of 45.6% of the shareholders' equity of Unefon in a private transaction with the family of Moises Saba.
The amount of the operation is US$300 million, from which US$200 million come from domestic and international financing and US$100 million will be paid by transferring Unefon Holdings' 50% capital stake in Cosmofrecuencias to Mr. Saba. The acquisition was approved by the National Securities and Banking Commission (CNBV) and has been presented for consideration to the Federal Commission of Competition.
The Board of Directors of Unefon Holdings also approved a public offering to buy Unefon's outstanding capital traded in the stock market in approximately 60 days, under the same terms offered to Mr. Saba. Unefon Holdings has requested authorization from the CNBV for this offering.
Through the acquisition and public offering, Unefon Holdings expects to own all the shareholders' equity of Unefon, from its current 44.4% holding. Unefon has 21.6MHz at the 1.9GHz of the radio spectrum, optimum bandwidth to continue with a dynamic development of services of high quality cellular telephony nationwide. Unefon currently has 1.3 million subscribers and operates with technology CDMA 2000 1X, which is able to offer higher value services. The company's network will soon be migrated to CDMA-EVDO.
Unefon Holdings considers that the wireless industry dynamism in Mexico, the managerial capabilities of Grupo Salinas and the proven ability of Unefon to grow with effective cost management translate into high performance with great profitability.
"We will develop even more solid competitive advantages than the ones Unefon currently holds, in market segments that offer enormous growth opportunities," said Diego Foyo, CEO of Unefon Holdings. "Additionally, we have received instructions to explore the consolidation of operations with Grupo Movil@ccess — owner of the majority of Iusacell's capital — that generates maximum value for shareholders, reducing expenses, making joint acquisitions and the development of supplementary networks, using the same CDMA-EVDO technology."
"As a result, Unefon will be the second largest mobile telephone and data company in Mexico, with economies of scale and important synergies that will allow the company to strongly compete in the industry, which translates into better price options and services in the market, benefiting millions of subscribers."

I would like to start a new section in the newsletter about the hobbies and personal interests of our readers. To start things off, I will tell you that I have become a fan of Bluegrass Music in the last couple of years. My favorite recording artist is Rhonda Vincent. I had the great pleasure of hearing her and her group The Rage perform this summer, in Nashville, at the Grand Ole Opry, and then later at the Ernest Tubb Record Shop and Museum, after they performed live on WSM Radio—Midnight Jamboree program. 
The technology behind the z-1500 has been developed in harmony with world standards providing you with two-way voice communications of exceptional clarity and reliability. If you’re concerned about coverage across a large installation then take a closer look at the z-1500. A single control unit (CCFP) will support up to 125 handsets, 32 base stations and 224 repeaters. By connecting two CCFP control units together, the entire capacity can then be doubled allowing an expansion of up to 250 handsets, 64 base stations and 448 repeaters. This means that not only will the z-1500 satisfy the demands of almost any installation but ‘dead spots’ that occur within cellular networks are easily eliminated on the z-1500 system using a simple ‘plug and play’ repeater unit.
