Tokyo, Japan and Redwood City, Calif. (July 10, 2003) - Leading mobile data services company SEVEN announced today that the company's System SEVEN technology is supporting the launch of NTTDoCoMo, Inc.'s BINWAN, a new mobile service for Japanese businesspeople and their companies. The service, which will be available on July 17, offers secure, real-time access to corporate email, calendar, and personal and corporate contacts via most mobile devices or web browsers.
"BINWAN pairs the world's most respected mobile data network and subscriber base with SEVEN's market-leading technology," said Bill Nguyen, founder and CEO of SEVEN. "This is an exciting combination that will profoundly affect the way that people live and do business. We look forward to supporting DoCoMo's corporate marketing business, and are honored to have an opportunity at this time."
SEVEN enables mobile subscribers to stay connected to their critical business and personal information via a mobile device while on the go, whether out of the office, at home, or simply waiting for a meeting to begin. System SEVEN is an easy-to-use and low cost service; within just a few minutes subscribers get real-time access to their corporate data -- including Microsoft Exchange, Lotus Domino, IMAP and POP email, calendar, personal and corporate contacts, tasks and documents.

SEVEN-enabled services are commercially available from SingTel, Globe and Optus in Asia Pacific; Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS in North America; and O2 and Orange in Europe. The software is available as Personal Edition for individual users to download and self-provision, or Enterprise Edition for IT organizations to enable their entire company or designated workgroups.
