iMedeon Delivers Palm OS-Based Data Collection Software for Mobile & Wireless Field Service
ALPHARETTA, Ga., July 31, 2000-- Palm OS(R)-Based iM:Collect Ties Mobile Data Collection To Web-Based iM:Work

iMedeon, Inc., today announces Palm Operating System (Palm OS)(R)-based iM:Collect, a mobile data collection solution that is infinitely configurable for capture of data in the field. iM:Collect complements iM:Work, iMedeon's wireless web application that dramatically improves mobile workforce performance. As rapid adoption of Palm OS(R)-based devices expands the reach of data collection operations in the field, iMedeon's web-based system meets the need to plan and optimize data collection efforts, while enhancing organization-wide access and usefulness. Asset tracking and inventory management are enhanced by mobile and wireless devices, but only when this data is timely and complete. iMedeon confirms its market leadership by supporting Palm OS(R), the fastest growing segment of data collection devices.

"Costs are lowered and efficiencies increased by the combination of low-cost mobile devices plus web-based software systems, such as iM:Work," says Joe Mediate, CEO and President of iMedeon, Inc. "iM:Collect provides workers with a wireless web application that presents the right data collection solution for the user. This easy to use and accurate solution captures data in real-time at the source." Palm OS(R)-based devices support an ever-increasing array of add-on data collection capabilities, including Global Positioning System (GPS) locators, bar code readers, wireless two-way pagers, Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) wireless data modems, etc. These devices improve the accuracy of data about field assets, such as geo-position, barcode of serial numbers, operating conditions, meter reading etc. iMedeon provides integration with enterprise-wide Information Technology (IT) systems without the typical information lag-time associated with conventional systems.

iM:Collect includes an Administration tool, which allows users to configure the system to meet their ever changing needs. Pre-configured templates accelerate creation of mobile data collection objects. No coding is required for object creation, making the solution quick to deploy, resulting in instant generation of value for iMedeon's customers. The systems also handle version control so the most current and approved version of iM:Collect is being used by the remote users. These unique capabilities enable rigorous and complete data collection across an organization.
