They want ‘killer applications’ like POP3 and IMAP email support and personalized content and applications. mobileID is the first company to deliver these services to mobile users and provide all these services for free. Through our content partnerships, mobileID has launched 250 channels of personalized mobile relevant content and services such as the Wireless Golf Course Directory for mobile users.

From
Promise to Reality: The critical elements that need
to be in alignment for wireless connectivity to be affordable, valuable and available are
-- finally here!
Over the past three years there has been an "under construction" sign posted on
the narrowband advanced messaging industry. These signs are coming down and being
replaced by "Grand Opening" announcements. This emerging new industry is
perfectly positioned to address the requirements of the mobile worker and their desire to
extend their workplace to their car, their airport waiting lounge or their home.
Wireline addiction leads to wireless adoption. -- The need to know does not disappear because you just left the office.
You can extend the enterprise wirelessly -- The need to stay in touch and be reachable is the ultimate competitive advantage
If you missed the Internet wave -- you have a second chance with the "wireless glass"
The Advanced Messaging Reflex industry players have the best solutions in providing non-stop connectivity to your office, Internet, family friends and investments.
The advanced messaging promise is now reality.

E-Commerce
Beyond the Browser: Advanced Messaging Services and Wireless E-Commerce Applications :
E-commerce is a burgeoning industry these days, but highly mobile consumers and business
professionals are often left in the dust, chained to their desktop PCs in order to conduct
online business transactions. Being alerted and able to immediately pursue time-sensitive
online transactions such as stock trades and auction bids while away from a desktop PC or
Internet-connected laptop is the newest frontier in the e-commerce market. Recently
announced partnerships between content, equipment and service providers, combined with
advances in messaging technology, are changing the face of e-commerce. Freedom from cables
and wires gives consumers new mobility and freedom, and businesses that are jumping into
this market stand to benefit a great deal. From applications and back-end technologies to
the kinds of content offered to the devices that make it possible (two-way pagers,
WAP-enabled phones, palm-top systems), this session will discuss the new technologies now
enabling consumers to conduct business as usual in some most unusual ways.
