Helsinki 29.09.2004 11:00AM Coxion Oy, one of the pioneers in GPRS data solutions, has today released a new tri-band GPRS PC card, the WebBox S10. What makes this product unique is that it's one of the first if not the only one supporting Apple powerbook with Mac OSX operating system, right out of the box. Yes it works with Windows too, in case you're wondering. Supporting Mac OS is nothing new to Coxion. In 2002 Coxion released their first external GPRS modem, WebBox USB, that also had Mac OS support. WebBox USB connects via USB port making it work in iBooks and desktop computers, that don't have PCMCIA slot. When we were developing the new S10, it was clear to us that we wanted it to support Apple computers. One of the company executives has been Apple user since 1995 and has become very frustrated with the support of todays GPRS products on Mac OSX. WebBox S10 offers GPRS tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz data connectivity. Ensuring that you can connect quickly and easily to the Internet, wherever you are in more than 160 countries, on five continents. WebBox S10 is a small size PC card that fits inside the PC slot and has flexible, removable antenna. Also this is a first PC card from Coxion that does not support WLAN, since many of todays laptops has build in WLAN, including Apple Powerbooks with airport. On the Apple Powerbooks, WebBox S10 supports GPRS data communications, giving you the freedom to connect to internet and send and receive email, directly from your computer, where ever you are. All important GPRS functions are available, including option to lock roaming operator when traveling. A very important feature, enabling to choose best and most affordable roaming partner. Secondary features like GSM calling, SMS and Faxing are available with third party softwares. In near future we are looking to include these features in our own software - but for now we just wanted to get this out as fast as possible. On Windows 2000 and XP, WebBox S10 also offers GSM voice calling with included HF and freedom to send and receive SMS and Fax directly from your computer. S10 is also great for SIM cards contact management and backup. WebBox S10's specially designed user-friendly utility helps you easily manage all functions. With the S10, no matter where you are, you can stay in touch with all important people in your life, Mac or PC. WebBox S10 is available now starting at 260 EUR. Today Coxion Oy also announced new product category, with Surfpoint internet terminal - a computer that "Just Works" For more detailed information and images, visit: http://www.coxion.com __________________________ Please visit our sponsors: RadGad(sm): The Place for Useful Gifts & Gadgets.(sm) http://www.radgad.com/, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED], or 877-5-RADGAD MacTech(r) Magazine: The journal of Macintosh technology and development http://www.mactech.com, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED], or 805-494-9797 DevDepot(sm): Your Source for RAM, Technical & Developer Products http://www.devdepot.com, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or call 877-DEPOT-NOW To submit a posting to NetProLive, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe to NetProLive, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the SUBJECT line reading "SUBSCRIBE NetProLive".
