mFormation and Red Bend Partner to Accelerate Deployment of Mobile Device Management Solutions

Mformation’s Interoperability Test Center Enables Testing and Validation of OMA DM Software

EDISON, New Jersey, November 16, 2005 - Mformation® Technologies Inc. (http://www.mformation.com), the leading provider of mobile device management (MDM) software, today announced that they are working with Red Bend Software to perform early interoperability testing on Red Bend’s OMA-DM device client, making it easier for mobile operators to deploy effective mobile device management solutions.

At mFormation’s Interoperability Test Center, two rounds of interoperability testing were successfully conducted on Red Bend’s OMA DM device client software code against mFormation’s OMA DM server, a core component of the mFormation SERVICE MANAGER™ Suite.

“Working with mFormation, we are able to test the interoperability of our new core code at a very early stage and verify our OMA DM device client against an industry-leading DM platform well before we deliver new software to our handset manufacturer OEM partners,” said Dominique Jodoin, Red Bend’s Executive Vice President for Business Strategy. “The ability to do interoperability testing of our client with OMA DM servers not only demonstrates Red Bend’s commitment to important industry standards, but benefits our partners and their mobile operator customers by making it easier to deploy complete mobile device management solutions.”

“Early interoperability testing helps software vendors, device manufacturers and mobile operators bring new device capabilities to market more rapidly,” said Andrew Dixon, mFormation’s Director of Business Development. “Building on our experience with Red Bend’s FOTA client, we are now able to demonstrate interoperability to their OMA DM client, ensuring the rapid delivery of fully interoperable mobile device management products, and accelerating end-user adoption of new mobile devices and services.”
