Applied Data Systems Participates in Intel(r) PCA Developer Network:
Applied Data Systems' Graphics Master featuring
Enhanced Wireless Connectivity on Intel(r) StrongARM System with USB and
Compact Flash Now Available as a Reference Platform for the Intel(r) PCA
Developer Network

INTEL DEVELOPER FORUM, SAN JOSE, Calif. Aug. 28, 2001 - Applied Data Systems
(ADS) is working with Intel Corporation (Nasdaq: INTC) as a participant in
the Intel(r) Personal Internet Client Architecture (Intel(r) PCA) Developer
Network. ADS 's Graphics Master development systems will be used as an
Intel(r) StrongARM* reference platform for Intel customers. 
 
"Applied Data Systems has developed a high level of interconnectivity on an
Intel StrongARM reference platform that we believe designers of wireless and
handheld applications can take full advantage of," said Ken Edwards, product
marketing for Intel's Handheld Computing Division.

ADS' Graphics Master Intel StrongARM SA-1110/ SA-1111 is a richly featured
RISC-based single board computer system with USB Master, Ethernet and
compact flash connectivity. Featuring a new USB host capability, the
Graphics Master allows a level of communications on a tremendously low power
management platform.  The system includes an on-board four port USB hub, a
USB downstream power switch, and a USB slave/USB bus master, adding to one
of the most comprehensive communications packages available in such a
compact package.

A second key capability of the Graphics Master is its compact flash
interface connector, which extends the existing flash memory options of 8,
16 or 32 MB flash, and complements the 16, 32, and 64 MB SDRAM (103MHz)
options.  The PCMCIA slot is subsequently available for device cards with
such features as modems, 802.11 or IDE. In addition to the USB Master and
Compact Flash, the Graphics Master extends the serial ports from 3 to 7
(with IrDA, RS-232, TTL and RS485 options), and complements ADS'
already-rich IO suite: a Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus, PCMCIA, 10Base-T
Ethernet and a re-configurable SMART IO package that selects from 32 digital
IO's, 12 analog inputs, an 8x8 keypad, and 2 PWM's. The Graphics Master has
an array of feature options built on a 32-bit Intel StrongARM SA-1110 and
SA-1111 companion chip RISC processor, with clock rates up to 206 MHz and
with one of the lowest power management platforms commercially available
today.

"We have been producing Intel StrongARM-based platforms since the early
1990's and expect the reference platform program and our participation in
the Intel PCA Developer Network to be a smooth transition for Intel
customers," said Robert Olsen, CEO of Applied Data Systems. 

The Intel PCA Developer Network is designed to help developers successfully
build and market wireless applications, services and devices. Based on the
Intel(r) Personal Internet Client Architecture (Intel PCA), the network
offers wireless companies access to more than 300 tools for developing
devices and applications based on Intel PCA. More than 175 companies are
participating in the network.

The Graphics Master reference development system sells for $2,850 USD and
can be ordered by part numbers: GM2520 (CE) and GM3501 (Linux). The
development system comes with a 6.4" active color VGA LCD, a 6.4" resistive
touchscreen, a power supply, all necessary cables and documentation, and is
mounted on a plexiglass platform. Developers will continue to have the
option of using the Assabet schematics/source for their designs. The system
is available with Windows CE 3.0 or Linux OS options, and the JVM's
supported on Linux include Blackdown, OTI, Chai (available in different
packages). Information about the Graphics Master reference program can be
found at www.applieddata.net/IntelProgramFAQ.asp and general technical specs
can be found at www.applieddata.net/products_master.asp
