                    The Intermec CN3Handheld Computer Boosts

                    Mobile Workers Productivity & Efficiency



Mobile Tornado plc (AIM:MBT) and  Intermec (NYSE: IN) today announce an
exclusive pan-EMEA partnership to provide Push To Talk (PTT) over cellular
services on Intermec rugged CN3 handheld computers.

For companies, this availability of low cost cellular based instant
communications dramatically enhances the productivity of every mobile worker. It
allows them urgent communication with a supervisor to answer a customer query in
the field and further empowers the employee to resolve customer disputes at the
doorstep through immediate dialogue with their head office.

Choosing an Intermec CN3 with PTT also offers organizations a major reduction in
customer service costs.  By combining voice communication and data management in
one small, durable handheld device, users of the Intermec CN3 avoid the expense
and hassle of carrying a separate PDA for data as well as a mobile phone.
Additionally, by using the global GSM mobile phone network instead of a local RF
transmitter, a CN3 with PTT will have coverage virtually everywhere. Yet costly
mobile phone tariffs are avoided as the service is web hosted and there is just
one small monthly per device charge.

Other features of the Mobile Tornado PTT solution are that it integrates
seamlessly with new or existing mobile & back-office applications.  PC-based
central dispatch software also allows an enterprise the flexibility to view
field workers availability and broadcast company communications to the entire
mobile workforce or selected members of it.

Commenting on the partnership, Stuart Scott, Senior Director, International
Marketing for Intermec said: 'The addition of PTT capability adds to the rich
set of connectivity solutions including GPS, 3G WAN, Cisco Compatible WiFi and
Bluetooth that are integrated into the CN3. This new feature will cement the
CN3's position as the single terminal device that mobile workers will want to
carry.'

David Parry, VP Worldwide Sales, at Mobile Tornado said: 'Today's enterprises -
and particularly those engaged in transportation, logistics and field service -
increasingly need instant communication with their mobile workforce. The
availability of push to talk services on the Intermec CN3 takes communication to
a new level without the added capital, operational expense and complexity of
adding a second device for voice.'
