OAG Launches WorldMate For US Travelers; New Product Enables Business Travelers to Access Travel Information on PDA's
OAG(R) (Official Airline Guides), the world's leading source of independent flight schedule information, announced the launch of OAG WorldMate, a new product that enables business travelers to easily access flight and travel information on their PDA.

Using data from OAG's unparalleled flight schedules database, OAG WorldMate includes all published direct and connecting flights worldwide from over 900 airlines allowing travelers to see all their travel options while they're on the move.

OAG WorldMate allows travelers to access a range of useful flight and travel information via their handheld PDA, including:

-- Access to the latest flights - search instantly from a database of over 900 airlines for a flight. Download schedules for up to 5 city pairs at a time. Travelers can view the 50 fastest connections to a destination.

-- Daily schedule tools - travelers can now quickly view day-to-day itineraries, from flight times and hotel addresses to meeting details and car rental numbers. In addition, travelers can export all data to the calendar on a PC, so changing schedule information is easy.

-- Real time weather updates - with 5-day weather forecasts available from the Weather Channel for over 38,000 locations worldwide, travelers can be more prepared when planning a trip.

-- Destination information - quick access to local time, suitable tip recommendations, maps, and conversions for everything from currencies and clothes sizes to temperatures and measurements.

OAG WorldMate is the result of the recent sales and marketing agreement signed by OAG and MobiMate- the Israeli-based mobile application vendor. The agreement enhances MobiMate products with the inclusion of OAG's comprehensive flight schedules data.

Kathy Marr, VP of Marketing and Publishing for OAG commented:

"OAG WorldMate will offer business travelers a comprehensive travel resource right in the palm of their hands. With the reliability of OAG's unparalleled flight schedules data backed up by MobiMate's mobile technology experience we are confident WorldMate will be indispensable to any business traveler."
