New Wireless E-Mail Solution Adds Freedom to Gateway's Companion:)Ware Lineup

Gateway's new two-Way Wireless Messaging Solution makes it easy to stay connected through e-mail and paging with family, friends and business associates while on the go.
The new package -- available immediately from Gateway and priced at $549 -- features the Handspring 8MB Visor Deluxe handheld computer, and Glenayre @ctiveLink two-way wireless messaging module. Also included is the "Getting Started" guide and Gateway's online training to make it easy for customers to get the most productivity out of their purchase.
