eSP's Stay-Linked Validated by Symbol Technologies Solutions Validation Program

19 October 2005

eBusiness Solution Pros, Inc. (eSP) announced
that its award-winning
Stay-Linked™ thin-client software solution for wireless terminal
environments has been successfully
co-validated through Symbol's new Solutions Validation Program. The first
solution to be tested and validated through the program, Stay-Linked
provides centralized, secure and high-performance RF/wireless access to
5250/3270 and VT100/220 host-based screen applications using a wide range
of RF/wireless terminal devices from Symbol and other manufacturers.

Symbol and eSP jointly tested Stay-Linked Version 7 at Symbol's Solutions
Center located in Holtsville, N.Y. Validation test routines were performed
on several Symbol handheld mobile computing devices that were connected to
a Symbol wireless infrastructure. Symbol's Mobility Services Platform
(MSP) server was used to rapidly deploy Stay-Linked thin-client software to
the test devices.

Stay-Linked performed as documented for all device, application, host
server platform and terminal emulation combinations in a variety of typical
customer usage scenarios. Verification of terminal session connectivity and
functionality with a Manhattan Associates Warehouse Management host
application instance through an Internet VPN (virtual private network)
connection was also successfully validated.

"Symbol's Solutions Validation Program enables partners to validate their
mobility solution on Symbol products, including MSP, to reduce both the
risk level and the time to deployment for the customer," said Verlin Youd,
Symbol vice president and general manager of Symbol's Solutions Division.
"Validating eSP's
Stay-Linked is a valuable step that gives increased assurance that the
solution works right from the start."

The Stay-Linked solution is based on eSP's unique Client2Host architecture.
With Client2Host, all terminal emulation and client device/session control
runs natively on the application host system where the Telnet server
resides, with only a thin-client software component loaded on each wireless
terminal device. The
Stay-Linked Administrator GUI application provides Advanced Terminal
Session Management capabilities, allowing centrally deployed IT/Support
staff to view and control host-based wireless terminal user sessions in
real time. When temporary disruptions in wireless device-to-host access
occur, as soon as access is restored, users are automatically returned to
their original wireless session -- the exact same screen and cursor
location.

Stay-Linked is actively marketed and sold through a channel of
solutions-oriented Stay-Linked Certified Partner resellers, most of which
are also Symbol PartnerSelect partners. The software, which can be
obtained via secure online download from eSP's corporate Web site
(www.stay-linked.com), installs quickly and easily and is offered fully
functional on a no-charge,
30-day evaluation basis.

"The availability of a Symbol-authored report detailing the test process
and validated results of
Stay-Linked's unique functionality will be a true sales enabler for our
joint channel of wireless solution resellers," said Mike Pagani, eSP's vice
president of sales and marketing. "Symbol granting us the use of the
SymbolPLUS Validated logo for Stay-Linked provides a strong level of
confidence for enterprises seeking to take advantage of the combined
solution of Symbol devices and Stay-Linked software. Stay-Linked's
now-validated compatibility and complementary functionality with Symbol's
MSP will definitely be leveraged by our joint strategic partners when
engaged in competitive solution-selling situations."
