SEATTLE — July 11, 2001 — NetMotion Wireless Inc. today announced the availability of NetMotion Mobility 3.0 beta software and an open beta test program. NetMotion Mobility 3.0 includes support for the Microsoft Windows 2000 operating system, considered the platform of choice for enterprise servers and mobile computers. NetMotion Mobility is a unique wireless solution that provides a secure and continuous connection to enterprise LANs and WANs.
Any enterprise using Windows-based platforms can deploy NetMotion Mobility 3.0 to increase the stability and security of its wireless network. NetMotion Mobility is client-server software that makes wireless networks operate as effectively as wired networks do — without interruption and with secure access to the same data and applications that are on office PCs. IT departments can deploy NetMotion Mobility 3.0 easily in less than an hour.

NetMotion is focused on the wireless user who needs to do a lot more than just instant messaging or e-mail," said Shelly Julien, vice president of marketing at NetMotion Wireless. NetMotion is for the enterprise using network-dependent applications in a wireless environment."

Already a recognized leader in the wireless market, NetMotion Mobility 2.1 won the Best of Show Award in the Network Security category at NetWorld+Interop Las Vegas 2001. Investors also recognize the value of NetMotion solutions. Despite a dismal investment climate for high-tech startups, in March, NetMotion received over $8 million in financing from venture capital firms including SeaPoint Ventures and Northwest Venture Associates.

Support for the Latest Client and Server Platforms
NetMotion Mobility 3.0 now covers the most widely used enterprise server platforms — Windows 2000 and Windows NT.

On the client side, NetMotion Mobility 3.0 adds support for portable computers running Windows 2000 to previously existing support for Windows 95/98 and for portable devices such as the Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC, HP Jornada 700 Series Handheld PC, Intermec 5020 Data Collection PC and others running Windows CE 2.11, 2.12, 3.0 (H/PC 2000), and Pocket PC.

NetMotion plans to continue adding support for all broadly used computing platforms on both client and server sides with new releases.
We added support for Windows 2000 with the release of NetMotion Mobility 3.0 in response to the market," Julien said. Corporate deployment of Windows 2000 on mobile, wireless desktops is accelerating in the second half of 2001. NetMotion will continue to expand operating system support for enterprise-server, mobile-desktop and wireless-device platforms."
