Mort Jensen says, "Very simply, Good Technology allows "Road Warriors" to be seamlessly connected to the data, applications and tools needed while away from your desk. Good’s flagship product, GoodLink™, is a standards-based wireless messaging and corporate data access system that provides mobile workers with a completely wireless (no cradle needed!), two-way sync connection to Microsoft Exchange Server® (version 5.5, 2000 and 2003). Standards-based systems supported include Palm OS (like the Treo 600) and Windows Mobile 2003 (like the new HP iPAQ 6315). This open-standards approach means companies won't get locked into a proprietary wireless system. Come see why over 3,200+ customers have chosen Good as their corporate standard, including local Bay Area companies like Electronic Arts, Visa and Wilson, Sonsini, Goodrich & Rosati. A live demo of GoodLink will be given as well
