New Features Enable Secure Access to Leading Data Applications on Smartphones And Next Generation Handheld Devices; GoAmerica Announces the Availability of New Java Components for its Go.Web Wireless Data Technology

GoAmerica, a leading developer and distributor of wireless data technology, today announced that new Java components of its Go.Web technology are now available to the wireless application developer community. These new features of Go.Web dramatically simplify the process of creating wireless-enabled applications that provide secure access to corporate data on a variety of 'smartphones' and next generation handheld devices.

"GoAmerica is committed to providing the developer community with leading tools for building value-added wireless applications," said Jesse Odom, GoAmerica's chief technology officer. "The Java components of our Go.Web technology offer corporate IT managers a simple platform for providing their mobile workforce with real-time access to critical business information."

In order to provide enhanced support for the wireless application developer community, GoAmerica has extended the Go.Web software development kit (SDK) to include these new Java application programming interfaces (APIs). The Go.Web Java APIs consist of the Go.Web MobileClip API and the Go.Web Push Initiator API .

By utilizing these new APIs, developers can now leverage core elements of the Go.Web technology in order to create offline Web applications and 'push' wireless alerts for a variety of handheld devices.

For example, a pharmaceutical company can utilize the Go.Web MobileClip Java API to easily create a wireless application that the company's mobile sales reps can use to access drug information. By accessing the Go.Web MobileClip that is stored on their handheld devices, these sales reps can view and request updates on product information such as pricing, availability and FDA safety guidelines. A push alert based on the Go.Web Push Initiator Java API can also be developed in order to instantly notify the sales force if inventory falls to a certain level or if there are price changes.

These Java components of Go.Web can be used in conjunction with several leading application servers including IBM WebSphere, BEA WebLogic, and Sun ONE; with the Apache Tomcat servlet container; or with standalone Java applications.

Go.Web MobileClip Java API

The Go.Web MobileClip Java API extends the Go.Web SDK to provide a high-level interface to automate and simplify the creation of offline web applications utilizing GoAmerica's MobileClip and QueueManager technologies. The MobileClip Java API supports Go.Web MobileClip technology, which enables the creation of dynamic offline content that supports a variety of mobile devices.

Go.Web Push Initiator Java API

The Go.Web Push Initiator Java API extends the Go.Web SDK to provide a high-level interface that encapsulates the WAP Push Access Protocol (PAP). The Push Initiator Java API implements WAP Push Initiator functionality in accordance with version 2.0 of the WAP-Push specifications and provides backward compatibility with version 1.0. This includes functionality for both submitting requests to the Push Proxy Gateway (PPG) and for processing responses sent back from the PPG.

GoAmerica's Go.Web technology enables mobile professionals to access Microsoft Exchange email, intranets and the Internet; read wireless email attachments; compose and deliver formatted business letters; and email and fax frequently used documents and files from a single source. Go.Web also provides the enterprise with secure wireless access to vital corporate data systems such as customer relationship management (CRM), enterprise resource planning (ERP) and sales force automation (SFA) applications.

Go.Web security features include over-the-air encryption from wireless device to the GoAmerica server, as well as SSL and VPN from the server to the enterprise. For end-to-end security, a Go.Web Enterprise Server is deployed behind the corporate firewall and encryption and decryption of data occurs exclusively on-site at the enterprise.
