XYPOINT
XYPOINT provides the services and technology that
enable content providers, e-commerce companies, and corporate
enterprise networks to keep connected with the people they
serve via wireless devices.
XYPOINT
technology turns wireless devices into remote controls for
the digital age – allowing users to participate in on-line
auctions, trade stocks, respond to e-mail, and take part in
many other “wired” activities, even when they’re nowhere near
a computer.
XYPOINT
has been a leader in wireless technology since 1993, serving
a number of major corporations – including GTE Wireless, Vodafone
AirTouch and many more. XYPOINT has developed key
partnerships with
12 of the top U.S. Wireless carriers and recently announced
a partnership with Wireless Services Corporation, a leading
provider of Internet services for wireless carriers.
Scott
Anderson served on the Company's Board.
Early 2001
TeleCommunication Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: TSYS) said today that
it has closed a definitive agreement to acquire Xypoint
Corporation in
a stock-for-stock transaction with a fixed exchange ratio.
TeleCommunication Systems (TCS)
is a leading developer of software and services that allow the
telecommunication carrier customers to receive and transmit
data messages wirelessly. Xypoint, a leader in wireless
location technology since 1996, enables carriers to locate
mobile devices, protect privacy, and facilitate the delivery
of Intelligent Messaging to the core of carrier networks. We
believe Xypoint operates the most widely deployed platform for
wireless commerce and E911, and commercial location services.
