Traveling Software Ships New Mobile Access Solution for Windows 95

LapLink for Windows 95 offers mobile professionals a single solution for
staying connected to critical information - in or out of the office

BOTHELL, Wash., January 29, 1996 - Traveling Software announced today the
immediate availability of LapLink for Windows 95, the first product to
offer Universal Mobile Access for mobile professionals. In a single
package, LapLink for Windows 95 offers the widest range of connectivity
options, one step access to your information from anywhere in the world,
seamless integration with the Windows 95 communications architecture and
familiar Windows 95 design features - all of which make it easy for mobile
users to save time and money. 

"No other single package comes close to meeting the stringent demands of
'mobile' professionals," said Raju Gulabani, Traveling Software's vice
president of products. "LapLink provides mobility to any type of business
professional. It eliminates the aggravation users have experienced with
other remote access solutions because it lets you work universally in the
same manner in the office as you do out of the office."

LapLink for Windows 95 allows users to connect to their desktop or network
resources through modems; Windows 95 Dial Up Networking; simultaneous
connection to TCP/IP and IPX networks; infrared; serial; parallel
(including EPP/ECP) cables; and the Internet. Users can instantly connect
from wherever they are without reconfiguring LapLink, applying the same
method of connectivity no matter what their needs. 

LapLink for Windows 95 eliminates the need for multiple remote
communications applications. By taking full advantage of the Dial Up
Networking support for remote access servers (e.g. Shiva LanRover,
Microsoft Windows NT RAS, Novell NetWare Connect, or 3COM Access Builder)
in Windows 95, remotely accessing a PC for multiple needs becomes a one
phone call process. Unlike before, a mobile professional can work on
e-mail. remotely run applications, access files and transfer information
in a single session without redialing. 

LapLink also does away with the need to manually set up modem connections
and other dialing information. Support for the Windows 95 telephony
integration (TAPI) allows each new communication session to begin and end
without wasteful setup time. 

LapLink for Windows 95 maintains backward compatibility to the 16-bit
version, LapLink for Windows. Traveling Software is the only remote access
software vendor to include both the 16-bit and 32-bit Windows 95 version
in a single package. Providing both technologies in one package guarantees
users a smooth transition to Windows 95 while safeguarding their Windows
3.1 investment. For easy installation, LapLink's smart install feature
automatically determines which operating system is present and correctly
installs either the 32-bit or 16-bit version of LapLink. 

"Offering the consumer both the 16 and 32-bit version in the LapLink for
Windows 95 package gives the buyer the best value for their money in the
most powerful remote connectivity solution that is sure to become the
market leader," said Phillip Redman, analyst at the Yankee Group, a market
research firm in Boston, MA. 

Another benefit to the mobile user is LapLink's Windows 95 design that
makes it even easier to learn and use. LapLink offers wizard installation
and port setup; a unique split-screen, Explorer-like file transfer
interface; right mouse button support; long file name support; Quick Step
Help, plus many other Windows 95 enhancements. 

LapLink for Windows 95 continues to help users save time and money through
its patented SpeedSync technology, which saves as much as 85 cents on
every $1 of long distance expense by transferring only the changed
portions of files across a connection. SpeedSync works with any file type
and can be used over any connection - even over the Internet. Pricing and
