Remoba, Inc. acquires assets of Xpherix Corporation
New Resources to expand current Xpherix product line
SANTA CLARA -- January 28th, 2005 --
Remoba Inc. (www.remoba.com), a newly formed company, announced
today that it has acquired the assets of Xpherix Corporation,
a leading provider of mobile productivity applications. Financial
terms of
the transaction were not disclosed.
Xpherix Corporation, founded in 1999, is a leading provider
of high-value, low-cost mobile productivity applications that
provide secure access to users' contacts, calendars and email
via cell phones. Xpherix solutions are ideal for mobile professionals
whose lifestyles demand constant connectivity without the
cost-prohibitive proprietary devices, data plans and substantial
IT maintenance required of competing solutions. Xpherix patent-pending
technology and telco-class infrastructure for accessing, storing
and automatically updating personal address books and enterprise
directories create incremental revenue opportunities for telecom
carriers, call centers and mobile device manufacturers.
Xpherix is a privately held company.
"Xpherix has a solid reputation for delivering high-quality,
user-friendly applications," says Guru Thalapaneni, founder
and CEO of Remoba Inc. "I intend to maintain that level
of quality while expanding our product line to include new
and exciting consumer and enterprise applications."
The changes will have minimal impact on current Xpherix subscribers
and carrier partners. They can continue to use the services
undisrupted and do not have to take any action. Xpherix applications
will continue to be sold under their current product brand
names and virtually all Xpherix personnel have been hired
by Remoba.
"For many of our carrier partners, iPhonebook is synonymous
with downloading, accessing and safeguarding contact information
and Remo is the only solution for turning your phone into
a wireless PDA," says Harry Lane, formerly of Xpherix
but now Director of Sales for Remoba Inc. "Those strong
brand names will continue, just now they'll be under the Remoba
umbrella."
