Ositech Communications Inc. today announced a new addition to its line of cellular wireless data products for mobile users. The
King of Clubs is the first to incorporate the exclusive CellFlex
technology from
Ositech. This technology enables a laptop user with a compatible cellular phone to seamlessly connect/access the Internet from wherever a voice cellular call can be made, regardless of being in the Home network area or Roaming when data communications is needed.
The
King of Clubs
is ideally suited for users who already have a built-in wireline modem in their notebooks. These users now have the freedom to access the Internet remotely by using their cellular phones wherever a wireline is not available or convenient. Up until now two distinctly different solutions were required for a user wanting to ensure Cellular Data connections from anywhere. The
King of Clubs
has combined these two into one, providing an integrated and convenient application friendly solution. Data connection via the Home digital cellular network is always attempted first as the preferred choice however the unit falls back to analog Roaming network whenever required. All of this takes place dynamically without user intervention resulting in a seamless dial up cellular data connection.
"The King of Clubs
is the exclusive product on the market today, providing the expanded freedom for cellular data. Wherever a cellular voice call can be made, now data connection is possible," said Walter Hare, Product Marketing Manger at
Ositech. "With CellFlex, the users now have total freedom for cellular data connections, making Anytime, Anywhere connectivity/Internet access a reality," he added.
With the North American workforce becoming increasingly mobile, the demands for wireless data communications is rapidly increasing. "We believe that the barriers preventing wider adoption of wireless data are coming down," said Justin
Greavette, Strategic Business Development Manager at Ositech. "With the ease of use, connection throughput and wider accessibility concerns now being addressed, the users will truly be able to leverage unified airtime packages being offered by the service providers," he added.
The King of Clubs, with a SRP of $149US, will be added to the TRUMPCARD line of products from Ositech and offered via the various channels within the next 30 days. The product will initially support handsets from NOKIA and MOTOROLA, with support for other handset brands to follow shortly after.
