SOLOPOINT.COM SELECTS COOLLOGIC SOFTWARE PLATFORM TO POWER ONLINE MARKETING DELIVERY ENVIRONMENT
DALLAS, TX (Sept. 28, 2000) - Coollogic Inc., a leading developer of embedded operating systems and software solutions for the Internet appliance market, today announced that it will integrate its recently introduced CoollinuxT AE software platform with solopoint.com™'s [OTC:SLPT] next-generation online personal marketing solution.
The Coollinux AE software platform will be used to power solopoint.com's front-end, user-interface environment, which is composed of a countertop-style, communications-centric device and a continuously available information portal that will be marketed to broadband ISPs. Designed to provide personalized communications and media-rich content to each family member in the home, the front-end environment is part of solopoint.com's next-generation, online marketing solution.
"We're happy to be working with solopoint.com because we believe their solution represents the convergence of technologies inherent in the next generation of the Internet," said Edward Ghafari, Coollogic chief operating officer. "Solopoint.com's goal is to change the economics of online marketing. They have created a breakthrough business model with compelling incentives for all parties delivering the solution to the marketplace that will generate a 'win-win' for advertisers, ISPs and, most importantly, consumers."
"After a systematic evaluation of Linux-based operating systems, we determined that Coollinux AE software platform is the most stable and flexible solution on the market today. The Coollinux AE is designed to work seamlessly with our technology to provide the end user with the most complete, intuitive communications and Internet experience possible," said Arthur Chang, solopoint.com's president and CEO. "Coollogic is an integral component of the front-end environment used to deploy the solopoint.com online marketing technologies, especially as broadband, always-on connectivity expands to other Internet appliances such as set-top boxes, PDAs and cell phones."
Original equipment manufacturers will license the front-end delivery environment reference design from solopoint.com and the Coollinux AE software platform from Coollogic.
