Compatibility with Microsoft(R) Outlook 2003 Offers Seamless Support

Chapura(R), Inc., an innovator of synchronization technology, today released KeySuite(TM) 2.2 with enhancements that will help individuals manage more efficiently their important Outlook(R) information on their Palm Powered handheld. Allowing individuals to carry and manage more of their Outlook information on their handheld than the built-in personal information applications, KeySuite consists of a unique combination of benefits for the approximately 12.3 million Palm Powered handheld owners who rely on Outlook. These additions give KeySuite a unique combination of features.

New in KeySuite 2.2

-- New Weekly Planner view in KeyDates(TM) offers an alternative,

more informative glance at a week's activities. The wide

columns allow customers to see the actual name of each

appointment instead of just a bar indicating free/busy

schedule.

-- The ability to create and edit Follow Up Flags for contacts in

KeySuite, so customers never forget about important

opportunities.

-- Microsoft Outlook 2003 compatibility means that, as customers

upgrade Outlook for their PC, they can still experience

seamless synchronization between Outlook and their handheld

using KeySuite.

"Customers like buying software from Chapura not only because of the reliable products, such as KeySuite, but also because of the friendly service and expert support. The Golden Rule rules at Chapura."
