Anderson Computers/Tidalwave Launches Partnership With Palm Computing
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — January 14, 1999 — Anderson Computers/Tidalwave Corp. (OTC BB:ACPT) announced today that it has launched a partnership with Palm Computing Inc., a subsidiary of 3Com Corporation (Nasdaq:COMS), through its affiliation with Beyond.com (BYND), the Software Superstore.
Like Amazon.com (Nasdaq:AMZN) Anderson Computers has cut out the high cost middleman and sells direct to the public. For added shopping convenience, Anderson Computers has created an online software store highlighting the Palm Platinum software selection. Featured products include: Handmail 2.0 for Palm OS, Intelligolf, and much more. The Platinum logo is your assurance of compatibility and quality. Products bearing this logo have successfully passed compatibility testing established by 3Com Corporation.
Palm Computing recognizes the increasingly mobile nature of information management, and believes handheld computing products are the next wave in individual productivity tools for the workforce. The growth of the handheld computing market is being driven by the transformation of the corporate environment into an extended, virtual enterprise – supported by a highly mobile, geographically dispersed workforce requiring fast, easy remote access to networked resources and electronic communications.
The emergence of corporate data infrastructures that easily support remote access further supports the growth of the handheld computing market. For further information regarding Palm Computing please visit the ACPT website http://www.tidalwavepc.com.
The Tidalwave Club at Anderson Computers now allows new members to receive FREE Email and 2 MB or 20 MB websites. Since the recent affiliation with Amazon.com (AMZN) and association with Beyond.com (BYND), ACPT has seen an increase in new club members by over 20%.
"Our growth and commitment to service is what makes Anderson Computers a very special and attractive company for shareholders and consumers," stated President of Anderson Computers/Tidalwave Leon Kline.
