Wayfinder Systems: Wayfinder's World Leading Product for the Visually Impaired, Wayfinder Access(TM) Attracts New Cooperation Partner - Wayfinder Partners up with Code Factory.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden -- Wayfinder is pleased to announce yet another cooperation with an international company specializing in accessibility products; Code Factory. This cooperation ensures that Wayfinder Access[TM] will be powered by Mobile Speak, Code Factory's innovative screen reader and will be available to Code Factory's thousands of customers across Europe and North America.

The cooperation between Wayfinder and Code Factory ensures that Wayfinder Access can be offered to an even larger group of the blind and visually impaired through the speech, magnification and Braille output that is unique to Mobile Speak. Any mobile phone subscriber in a community of an estimated 20 million blind people in EMEA and North America, and 135 million people worldwide with mild visual impairments, is sure to find the solution he requires from the combination of these two powerful software products.

Wayfinder Access aims to help the blind and visually impaired to become more mobile with better access to their surroundings. The navigation software can be combined with text-to-speech applications like Code Factory's screen reader for Symbian mobile phones, Mobile Speak, to convert the displayed directions on the mobile device into highly intelligible speech. It also integrates unparalleled screen magnification with font smoothing thus making Wayfinder Access the perfect mobility solution even to the low-vision users.

Code Factory will offer and market Wayfinder Access together with Mobile Speak to major operators and distributors in North America and Europe who have partnered with Code Factory for years.

"Wayfinder Access delivers a complete mobile navigation system for visually impaired people who previously only had access to much more expensive products. Wayfinder Access is an affordable and life-enhancing product," says Magnus Nilsson, CEO at Wayfinder. "Wayfinder Access was very well received when it was announced in February at 3GSM in Barcelona and we are pleased to be able to offer the product to Code Factory's customers as well," Magnus continues.

"Accessibility of Mobile technology is our top priority," explains Eduard Sanchez, CEO at Code Factory. "We are very enthusiastic about supporting Wayfinder Access and giving our users the opportunity to use a fantastic GPS solution. Many visually impaired individuals and phone operators are looking for a mobile navigation tool that meets their requirements and Wayfinder Access is just what they are looking for."

Wayfinder Access will be delivered in 17 languages and be available across Europe and North America from the end of April 2007. About Wayfinder Access[TM] Wayfinder Access is a new mobile navigation product developed to facilitate the everyday life of the visually impaired. With the four new 'Vicinity Views', a location becomes both visible and audible. This means that Points of Interest (POI), crossings or favourites etc are listed according to their distance from the user's location.

Wayfinder has taken the input of a reference group from the visually impaired community, to optimise the usefulness of our award winning and cutting edge Wayfinder Navigator. Wayfinder has reworked this entire application from scratch, so as to ensure that it will function as a fully integrated service with text-to-speech applications.

Wayfinder Access also includes a 'Where am I?' function. This means that the application is not only an indispensable support in guiding users to chosen destinations, but also enables them to establish their location.
