REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 6, 2002

Brings Unprecedented Ease-of-Use for Device Management and Wireless

Provisioning of Hot Fixes, Upgrades, Applications and Services

Action Engine Corporation (www.actionengine.com) today announced a new set of utilities that allow licensees to seamlessly offer users the ability to wirelessly backup their data, destroy data if a device is lost or stolen, and download new applications, upgrades, hot fixes and services onto next-generation phones currently available on Pocket PC.

The utilities, called Action Update, Action Backup, and Action Lock, provide licensees such as carriers and enterprises with a set of tools they can offer device users that bring unprecedented ease-of-use for device management and wireless provisioning of applications and services.

Action Update:

Lets carriers and enterprises offer leading-edge applications and device setup options. Enables users to wirelessly update applications and software installed on the device. Features include:

-- Enables a licensee to manage lost or stolen devices by remotely erasing a
users personal data

-- Allows the files and data stored in the RAM to be erased by a remote
administrator

Action Backup:

Enables users to wirelessly backup and restore files and applications installed on their device. Features include:

-- Enables a licensee to manage lost or stolen devices by remotely erasing a
users personal data

-- Allows the files and data stored in the RAM to be erased by a remote
administrator

Additionally, Action Backup will store and track the files backed up with minimal space required. Files that are uploaded to the server for purposes of backing up are compressed first to both save on storage space and speed uploading time. It can also provide filters to backup or exclude certain locations and file types.

Action Lock:

As the adoption of PDAs and smart devices increases, theft and device loss increases. To combat this, Action Lock now enables a Remote Administrator to send a wireless "lock" command to the device, rendering a lost or stolen device useless:

-- Enables a licensee to manage lost or stolen devices by remotely erasing a
users personal data

-- Allows the files and data stored in the RAM to be erased by a remote
administrator
