Andrew M. Seybold Leads Industry With First Book to Explore The World of
Wireless Technology

New York, NY, June 28, 1994 -- While the brave new interactive world of the
information superhighway may still be in its infancy, millions of "road
warriors" are already making use of cellular technology, mobile computers
and other forms of wireless communication to stay in touch with clients
and their home offices.

Now, Andrew M. Seybold, one of the best-known names in the computer and
communications industries, has written the first book to fully explore the
potential business uses of wireless technology in all its forms. Written
for a non-technical, general business audience, Using Wireless
Communications in Business, published by Van Nostrand Reinhold, takes the
mystery out of the whole subject, exploring in detail its history, where
it is now and its potential for the future.

"The marriage of computing and wireless technologies is one of the most
exciting combinations we have witnessed in this century, and it will
change the way we all work, live and play, " says Seybold, who believes
the wireless network will emerge as the next "hot" computing arena.
"Understanding what is happening and why is vitally important -- both for
those who must provide these services and for those who intend to make use
of them. "

Since nearly a third of today's workers already spend at least 20% of their
time away from their desks, there is clearly a huge market for mobile
devices of all kinds, according to Seybold. Ultimately, he says, the
ability to access information from anywhere at any time will have powerful
implications, and may transform the nature of work. "When you can get
information no matter where you are, your physical location becomes less
of an issue and you can work from anywhere at anytime, so the whole idea
of offices, work environments, and established working hours may change, "
Seybold predicts.

Using Wireless Communications in Business makes the various forms of
wireless technology easy to understand and give readers a broad
understanding of the next generation of communications while
distinguishing what is real today from what is "blue sky."

It fully discusses the wireless transmission of both voice and data, and
explains what it is, how it works, who provides it and what it costs. The
book is divided into two sections: the first overs existing options and is
followed by a discussion of the immediate future of the technology and
guidelines for implementing or experimenting with wireless access.

The second section is an in-depth tutorial for those who not only want to
know what to do and how to do it but also want to understand the
underlying technologies that make wireless communication possible. Part
two also cover the rules and regulations governing the use of wireless,
and appendices provide frequency charts and a fully glossary.

The definitive book about the mobile communications revolution, Using
Wireless Communications in Business is must reading for any business or
communications manger considering implementing wireless systems.
