vVAULT Wins Best In Show & Best Group Productivity Solution At WAPPYAwards 2001

Cellmania Announces Annual WAPPYAward Winners at CTIA Wireless Show

San Francisco, CA (March 26, 2001) - vVault, a leading platform technology for building mobile productivity applications, announced today that it was awarded the Best Group Productivity Solution and Overall Best in Show at Cellmania’s WAPPYAwards 2001. Announced at CTIA’s Wireless show in Las Vegas, the annual awards ceremony honors the most innovative sites designed specifically for mobile users. The winning vVault application allows mobile professionals to access critical business information via mobile devices. Users can improve their remote productivity dramatically by accessing documents (including email attachments), printing remotely via fax, digitizing documents, and collaborating on group files on any connected device, including WAP phones and PDAs. Visitors to the vVault site can experience a trial version of this service at www.vVault.com.

The Cellmania WAPPYAwards, which are jointly sponsored by Hewlett Packard and AT&T Wireless, considered a pool of over 11,000 nominees across ten categories. Judges evaluated nominees based on several criteria, including accessibility, ease of navigation, relevance of content or product offering and overall design. A team of seven judges made the award selections, including David Andrews, Senior Director of Marketing at Broadvision; Elisa Batista, Reporter for Wired.com; John Robb, Director of Product Management for mSpect; Sven-Goran Elveborg, Director of Strategic Development for Jalda; Clark Bohmont, VP of Business Development for Cellmania; Ross Bridges, Business Development Manager for Hewlett Packard Mobile Services; and Torbjorn Karnestrom, VP of Business Development for FAST.

"We salute Cellmania for celebrating the best of this evolving industry and very much appreciate their recognition of our technology," commented Will Aldrich, CEO of vVault. "Our goal at vVault is to differentiate ourselves based on significant customer wins with industry leaders and also, external validation that our technology is useful and intuitive. This announcement, combined with our recent customer announcement with OmniSky, are certainly steps in the right direction."

"All of the nominees were very impressive this year," said Clark Bohmont, VP of Business Development at Cellmania and a WAPPY judge, "but vVault's application was the most productive and useful as a business application, due to the ability to access files and documents from your mobile device while you’re away from your office."
