Elmic Systems Receives Best of Show Award at ESC San Francisco 2003

 Elmic Systems, Inc. and Vocera Communications take Best of Show Award at the
                         Embedded Systems Conference

    EMBEDDED SYSTEMS CONFERENCE SAN FRANCISCO, April 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Elmic
Systems, Inc., a leading supplier of embedded Internet protocols, announced
today that they have been awarded Best of Show at the Embedded Systems
Conference 2003 for their work with the Vocera Communications System.
    Elmic's work with Vocera Communications was announced as a finalist last
week. There were 14 finalists including Microsoft, Wind River, Monta Vista and
Texas Instruments. Yesterday, at 6:00 PM PST it was announced that Elmic
Systems had won the award.
    Vocera's lightweight, 4.2-inch clip-on communicator incorporates the Turbo
Treck TCP/IP protocol stack, uses a Microsoft Windows 2000-based server, and a
local or wide area network with 802.11b wireless access points.  It allows
users to initiate calls by user ID, group, location, or job function. The
system eliminates the shortcomings of two-way radios, cellular phones and
traditional telephone systems while retaining the most useful features such as
text messaging, call blocking and screening, conference calling and more.
    "We're excited and very proud to receive this honor.  Turbo Treck TCP/IP
and the Vocera Communication System are a perfect match. Together, they
represent forward movement in the embedded systems industry.  This award
signifies Elmic's position as the leader in embedded protocol technology,"
said Kevin McGuire, President of Elmic Systems, Inc.
    The ESC Best of Show Award showcases end-user products that demonstrate
innovative applications of embedded technology that may find their way into
homes or affect the way we do business.  All products chosen to participate in
the competition are on display during the conference taking place in San
Francisco's Moscone Convention center April 23rd though 25th.
