AirLink Communications Introduces First Rugged Intelligent Devices Operating on the Sprint Power VisionSM Network

AirLink X Platform enables customers to better manage and monitor their fixed and mobile assets, with the enhanced download and upload speeds of Sprint's powerful mobile broadband network

Hayward, CA – January 23, 2007 – AirLink Communications, Inc., an industry pioneer and leading provider of fixed and mobile wireless data solutions, today announced that AirLink's PinPoint X and Raven X have become the first ruggedized stand-alone connectivity devices certified and commercially available for use on the Sprint (NYSE:S) Power VisionSM Network. These first-of-a-kind devices support the advanced Sprint network technology Evolution Data Optimized, Revision A (EV-DO Rev. A) and are backwards compatible to work in areas where EV-DO Rev. A coverage is not yet available.

The Raven X and PinPoint X are the first two product installments in AirLink's new X Platform. Both devices offer increased processing power and expanded memory within an enhanced and scalable architecture optimized for current and future 3G wireless networks. As with all of AirLink's always-on, always-aware wireless modems, the X Platform products are powered by AirLink's ALEOS™ technology, the longstanding industry benchmark for reliable and feature-rich embedded intelligence.

The Raven X is a robust communications and networking device designed to deliver reliable connectivity for broadband wireless data and mission critical applications. Its high-speed Ethernet interface and enhanced processing make the Raven X ideally suited for various commercial wireless network connectivity applications. The Raven X has a serial interface as well, to simplify deployments and enable new functionality. Embedded ALEOS technology ensures data session persistence and compatibility with numerous machine communications protocols, making the Raven X equally suited for a long list of remote industrial solutions, including utilities, automation and infrastructure.

The PinPoint X is a compact, intelligent and fully-featured mobile communications platform with multiple peripheral connections including serial, Ethernet and USB. Expanded I/O functionality in a separate connector includes four digital inputs, four analog inputs and two relay outputs unleashing extensive remote instrumentation possibilities. The PinPoint X is compliant with environmental Military Standards for vibration, shock, drop, high and low temperature and humidity. Its high-precision 16-channel GPS receiver coupled with the rich embedded intelligence provided by ALEOS technology make PinPoint X the perfect choice for a broad set of mobile enterprise, public safety, fleet management and AVL solutions.

"In keeping with our reputation as an early adopter of network technology and a history of being first to market, AirLink is thrilled to offer the first stand-alone connectivity devices on the Sprint Power Vision Network," said Justin Schmid, senior vice president of marketing and business development for AirLink Communications. "The X Platform was designed to meet the needs of commercial and industrial applications alike, and our customers can't wait to enhance existing solutions and unlock new applications leveraging the new X Platform products and Sprint's mobile broadband service."

Sprint is the first wireless carrier to offer AirLink's new suite of rugged, intelligent devices based on its recently announced X Platform architecture. With certification on the Sprint Power Vision Network, AirLink's customers benefit from faster download speeds (averaging 450 – 800 kbps, as compared with 400 – 700 kbps for EV-DO Rev. 0) and significantly faster upload speeds (averaging 300 – 400 kbps, as compared to 50 – 70 kbps for 1x and EV-DO Rev. 0) in areas where EV-DO Rev. A coverage is available.

Sprint continues to be the industry's wireless data leader, offering in-demand mobility solutions for business and consumer customers today and with technology evolution plans designed to maintain that leadership into the future. The Sprint Power Vision Network reaches more than 200 million people nationwide, covering 220 communities with at least a 100,000 population as well as 780 airports nationwide. Since last year, Sprint has been aggressively rolling out their EV-DO Rev. A network and now covers more than 75 million people in 21 major metropolitan markets with the faster technology.

"Sprint's mission is to give the power back to customers so that they can enjoy great value and unmatched wireless capabilities on our powerful networks," said Danny Bowman, vice president of customer equipment for Sprint. "We are pleased to be the first wireless network provider to offer AirLink's new product platform. These robust and highly-intelligent devices coupled with our advanced mobile broadband capabilities enable our customers the power to make just about any place a workplace."
