Mobility Electronics Launches Bluetooth(R) Folding Keyboard Programs with Tier 1 Wireless Carrier and Major Notebook Manufacturer
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. --(Business Wire)-- Mobility Electronics, Inc. (NASDAQ:MOBE), a leading provider of innovative portable power and computing solutions, announced today that the Company's Ultra-Slim Bluetooth(R) Portable Keyboard will be available in select retail stores of one of the largest wireless carriers in the United States later this month. The keyboards will be sold under the carrier's brand name.
In addition, Mobility has received a purchase order for its folding keyboards from a major portable computer manufacturer. The keyboards will be sold as an accessory to the manufacturer's new ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC).
The Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard is the perfect productivity companion to smart phones, such as the popular Windows Mobile, Symbian, Windows XP, Apple and Palm OS models, and portable computing devices. With its genuine full-size keyboard with 18 mm spacing, the Ultra-Slim Bluetooth(R) Keyboard allows users to quickly type email or surf the web in optimum comfort. The sleek, award winning, patented folding design is featured in the Permanente Design Collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Its unique design allows it to easily fit in a pocket or purse, so it can be taken everywhere, yet opens to a full size keyboard when needed.
"The folding keyboard product line is progressing in line with our expectations and we are steadily expanding our distribution," said Charles Mollo, CEO of Mobility Electronics. "We believe that the development of relationships with a major wireless carrier and portable computer manufacturer provides further evidence of the sales potential in this product family."
