Intelliworxx to Offer Telematics - Mobile On-line Services - Through
ComROAD AG Alliance
SARASOTA, Fla., April 26, 2000--Intelliworxx, Inc. ("Intelliworxx")
(OTCBB:IWXX), a Florida based mobile technology corporation and a leader in vehicle computing,
announced it will soon provide on-line services to its mobile computing customers. Intelliworxx has signed
an agreement with an established European in-car computing and information provider ComROAD AG.
The agreement includes the sharing of existing in-vehicle technologies and collaborative development of next generation products as part of
a plan to accelerate wireless information service offerings. In addition, the new partnership will extend the technological reach of both
companies to half the continents globally.
ComROAD has already established successful Global Transport Telematic System (GTTS) service centers (telematic portals) in 17
countries, offering everything from fleet management to stock news. Together Intelliworxx and ComROAD will establish new GTTS
service centers in the North and South American markets.
Telematics is the combination of wireless telecommunications and information technology networks that enable the development and
marketing of online services for mobile users on a profile-driven, client-specific basis. Intelliworxx will deploy ComROAD's
MapCOM(TM) InfoCOM(TM), and NavCOM(TM) servers, providing the backbone for delivering GPS, fleet management, news,
entertainment and customer tailored online services. Most services are delivered over GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications)
wireless digital technology, offering the best voice quality, secure communications, unparalleled call privacy and fraud prevention as well as
national and international roaming.
In addition to telematics ComROAD has been reselling hand-held computing devices, from makers such as the Casio and HP, to
provide a palm-sized platform for information access via its telematics products. Future product development targeting hand-held devices
will leverage Intelliworxx' own expertise in voice and user interface design enabling safe and simple access to information and services while
on the road.
Bodo Schnabel, CEO of ComROAD stated, "Intelliworxx' experience in mobile electronics and the AutoPC market is a great match for
us in a U.S. partner. We're also looking forward to co-developing next generation in-vehicle devices."
Kevin Rogers, President and CEO of Intelliworxx commented, "Entry into content delivery services for mobile users is a natural strategic
step in our business model given our work in automotive computing. Partnering with ComROAD AG enables both companies to complete
their business models for in-car computing with a full range of products and services.
