FROM DATABASE TO WIRELESS DEVICES IN ONE DAY!

MONTREAL, QUEBEC, CANADA -- (PR-WEB) -- 01/30/2001 -- (PW) NetBility Corporation http://www.netbility.com today announced the launch of its WLServer 2.0 Wireless Applications Server. The product is designed to make corporate database information available to wireless devices such as Phone.Com browser compatible cell-phones from OpenWave Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: OPWV) of Redwood City California, and Blackberry 950 and 957 wireless handhelds from Research in Motion of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada (NASDAQ: RIMM) using Web Browsers from NEOMAR (Private), of San Jose California, and GO-America (NASDAQ: GOAM) of Hackensack, New Jersey.

Quoted NetBility CEO Brian McTeigue at the product launch. Imagine any information on your corporate databases --Exchange E-Mail and Schedule, Inventory, Customer Sales Figures, Outstanding Invoices and Order Status. Any information at all. Now imagine it on your field forces PDAs, Blackberry and Cell Phones. -- Tomorrow. Not next week. Not next month. But tomorrow."

Mr. McTeigue continued, Companies IT departments are literally filled with analysts and programmers who know how to program databases using SQL. And almost none of them know anything at all about the wireless application languages and protocols such as WAP, HDML or WML. To do a wireless project before WLServer 2.0 would require an enormous investment in learning and application development. Now, image those same people who only know SQL. Using our WLServer 2.0 product they can generate working applications in about a day. And these applications will work on all Phone.Com Browser cell-phones and Wireless handhelds such as the Research in Motion Blackberry 950 and 957."

Added, Dennis Periard, Executive Vice-President of Sales and Marketing for NetBility. What we tried to do, and have done with WLServer 2.0, is make it possible for companies small and large to go directly to wireless from their databases for a very small investment. They can leverage their existing knowledge of databases such as Microsoft SQL Server, (NASDAQ: MSFT), Oracle (NASDAQ: ORCL) and other databases such as IBM DB2 (NYSE: IBM) and create very complex applications. If there is a need for specific functionality, the programmers can write a dynamic link library (DLL) in Microsoft Visual Basic or C++ and link it right into the application. And finally, we added a secure authentication system and 128 bit encryption support to the product so the information is protected as it travels back and forth through the airwaves."

WLServer 2.0 is available now, for Microsoft Windows 98, ME, NT4 and Windows 2000 for download, evaluation and purchase at http://www.wlserver.com

Netbility Corporation is an independent venture owned by its management partners, investors and employees with offices in Montreal, Quebec, Toronto, Ontario, Burnaby, British Columbia and Pacific Palisades, California.
