ATLANTA, March 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Preferred Networks, Inc. (OTC Bulletin
Board: PFNT) (PNI), a leading outsourcing services provider to the wireless
industry, today reported that it has partnered with Definition 6, Inc., an
Atlanta-based applications developer, to develop a group messaging module for
WebSiteforFREE, a template-based software application that dynamically
generates and operates comprehensive, integrated web sites.
PNI will offer its customers a co-branded version of the service called
"WebSiteforFREE by PNI" from the PNI website http://www.pnifreeweb.com . The
Internet application will include a unique group messaging module that will
allow PNI's customers to create, manage and send messages to groups of paging
users from their own web sites. PNI expects to introduce the service to its
customers this month.
Mark Dunaway, CEO of PNI, said, "WebSiteforFREE by PNI is a powerful
application that allows our customers to set up their own web site, build a
shopping cart, group page customers, and market their businesses using the
Internet. WebSiteforFREE by PNI with the paging module is one in a series of
Internet based services that PNI is developing. We believe services such as
WebSiteforFREE by PNI add real value for our customers. Particularly in the
case of those customers using a PNI iTerminal(TM), customers can integrate
Web-based services with messaging at reduced cost by transporting the paging
traffic to PNI's networks via the Internet.'
'
Jordan Fladell, Chief Operating Officer of WebSiteforFREE said, "We are
excited about our relationship with PNI because we can now offer our customers
the ability to conduct real-time customer service and follow-up with their new
and existing customer base." Fladell added, "The paging module now gives our
customers an advantage over their competitors."
Preferred Networks, Inc., headquartered in metropolitan Atlanta, provides
outsourcing solutions to the wireless industry, which allow companies to offer
branded wireless services directly to subscribers, while relying on PNI to
provide high-quality network services and technology gateway products. PNI
offers its services through its PNI Access Services Division. PNI's address
on the World Wide Web is: http://www.pniaccess.com.
