InHand Introduces Advanced Platform for Wireless Device Development

              ATP-27X Platform Incorporates the Latest Low-Power
                         Technologies for New Devices

    BOSTON, Sept. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- InHand Electronics, Inc., a leader in
handheld and wireless device platforms for OEMs, today announced at the
Embedded Systems Conference its new Advanced Technology Platform, a
hardware/software reference platform for showcasing the future of low-power
wireless device technology.  The ATP-27X is based on Intel's new PXA270
(previously known as "Bulverde") embedded microprocessor and incorporates
InHand's latest power management technology advances.  It is targeted at top-
tier OEMs who are interested in getting a head start on the design of future
wireless products.
    "InHand's new ATP-27X platform is ideally suited for those companies that
are looking to get ahead of the curve in developing next-generation wireless
devices," said Andrew Girson, InHand Electronics' CEO.  "Whereas InHand's
popular Elf3 and Fingertip3 reference platforms are ideally suited for speedy
time-to-market with proven designs, the ATP-27X is appropriate for exploring
next-generation designs."
    The ATP-27X benefits from InHand's extensive portfolio of power-reducing
hardware and software technologies and also incorporates new wireless device
peripherals and interfaces.  The updated hardware architecture for the ATP-27X
facilitates better power management and a new version of the BatterySmart
dynamic power management software designed for the ATP-27X provides greater
ability to adjust and manage performance, power consumption, and battery life.
    ATP-27X reference platforms will be available in October and will be
priced at $9,995, including the reference platform hardware, software,
documentation, and technical support.
