Padcom, Inc., a leader in wireless connectivity solutions for continuous remote access to critical information, today announced it has signed a joint marketing agreement with Nextel® to co-market Padcom®'s software products enabling seamless mobility between the iDEN network and other networks such as WiFi and private RF. Padcom's TotalRoam® creates a secure, optimized mobile VPN for Nextel customers, along with completely transparent seamless roaming that will provide remote access to information that is quick, easy, and secure for Nextel customers.

"This agreement demonstrates the realization by carriers that they need to offer security and seamless roaming solutions as value-ads for their networks. We're encouraged that Nextel understands the value that our TotalRoam software can bring to their customers," said Scott Stone, CEO of Padcom, Inc. "Carriers like Nextel play a critical role in the mobile ecosystem. Integrating security and seamless network roaming into their portfolio creates a true mobility solution, enabling customers to take advantage of Nextel's extensive network coverage and combine it with the speed provided by wireless LANs or Mesh networks. We believe that the security and network management provided by Padcom, coupled with Nextel's reputation for providing broad network access and a strong commitment to customer service, creates a compelling mobile data platform for government agencies and field force workers."

Padcom®'s patented technology provides Nextel customers with optimized wireless connectivity for continuous remote access to critical business information. This continuous connectivity helps increase the ROI for key productivity applications as well as providing real-time access to information for mobile workers. Additionally, the TotalRoam® software creates a FIPS 140-2 validated VPN from the mobile computer, across the Nextel nationwide network, and back to headquarters, allowing communication to meet Federal encryption standards. In addition, TotalRoam® provides the ability to maintain persistent network connectivity between Nextel's iDEN network and other networks such as WiFi, Mesh, and legacy private radio systems.
