Press Release: SEVEN has collaborated with palmOne, Inc. to deliver enterprise email on the Treo 650(TM) smartphone for distribution to the leading mobile operators worldwide. SEVEN's client software tightly integrates with the Treo 650 to provide seamless mobile access to business and consumer email and information. Sprint plans to be the first wireless carrier to offer the Treo 650 in North America, with commercial availability slated for next month. Sprint will offer the Sprint PCS Vision Smart Device Treo 650 by palmOne with Sprint PCS Business Connection built-in, enabling businesses and prosumers easy and affordable mobile access to their email.

"The Treo 650 is a breakthrough device," said Kent Thexton, SEVEN President and Co-CEO. "By working with Sprint and palmOne to deliver SEVEN built-in on the Treo 650 from Sprint, we're making mobile email access a great experience."

Sprint PCS Business Connection, powered by SEVEN, will be the default enterprise mobile email client on all Treo 650 devices sold by Sprint and will be accessible by touching the email hot-key or selecting "Get BC" from the Treo 650's launch screen. Sprint PCS Business Connection provides real-time, secure, access to Lotus Domino, Microsoft Exchange, IMAP and POP3 email, calendar, personal contacts, corporate directories, network drives and desktop documents. Sprint PCS Business Connection is available in two deployment models including Personal Edition developed for individual and small business users, and Enterprise Edition to meet the security and integration needs of small, medium and large businesses, as well as having control rest with the corporate IT department.

"Mobile email has been a key driver in the adoption of the Treo family," said Page Murray, vice president, marketing for palmOne. "We are happy to work with SEVEN to continue the momentum behind mobile email on the Treo platform by integrating their easy-to-deploy services on the Treo 650 from Sprint."
