Business Editors/Technology Editors

REDDING, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 31, 2005--Antenna Software, the leader in real-time mobile solutions for the Enterprise, announced today the appointment of Bob Apollo as vice president and managing director for European Operations. A 25-year veteran of the software industry, Apollo has spent 10 of those years focusing exclusively on mobile Enterprise computing. Prior to Antenna, Apollo served as executive vice president, Worldwide Field Operations, for XcelleNet, where his contributions to revenue generation, partner development and new market penetration were instrumental in enabling the company to conclude a successful acquisition by the iAnywhere division of Sybase

"As the mobility market has transformed from a nice-to-have novelty to a run-the-business necessity, we have experienced incredible demand for our real-time mobile Enterprise applications," said Jim Hemmer, CEO of Antenna Software.

"Given the number of leading European organizations we already count among our customers, we are confident that now is the right time to build a physical presence in the EU. Most importantly, by having a seasoned executive like Bob Apollo on our team, we are confident that we will succeed." Antenna A3 solutions extend critical data, applications, and processes to mobile professionals in real time regardless of their chosen networks and devices.

By combining managed, hosted services with "always-on" device-independent clients, Antenna significantly reduces the complexities of a wireless implementation and delivers significantly higher ROI than other approaches

"On-demand access has never been more important for performance-driven organizations," said Apollo.

"I believe Antenna is uniquely positioned to lead the adoption of real-time mobile Enterprise computing across Europe and I am delighted to be joining the organization at this time to help drive that expansion."
