IVT Announces Launch of Its New BlueSoleil Linux Version for Ultra Mobile PCs


TAIPEI, Taiwan, June 2 /PRNewswire/ --

IVT, the word leading Bluetooth technology specialist, announces it has
ported its popular Bluetooth application software, BlueSoleil 5.0 on Windows
XP/Vista onto the Linux Operating System (kernel 2.6 or above), providing
Linux users with the same look and feel GUI and functionalities. IVT will
demonstrate it at Taipei Computex, June 3-7 in Bluetooth Pavilion.

"Due to its wide distribution of over 25 million copies in 145 countries
and easy access from www.BlueSoleil.com , BlueSoleil has become the de facto
standard for Bluetooth product interoperability. Our new Linux version also
follows the same design philosophy of BlueSoleil 5.0: ease of use. It has
hidden the complex Bluetooth concepts, with just three clicks. It allows a
user to establish a connection with a local device within a single window.
With all the innovative applications inherited from BlueSoleil 5.0,
BlueSoleil Linux version significantly enhances the usability of Ultra Mobile
PCs," stated Dan Tian, IVT's director of windows application.

"BlueSoleil Linux version supports many different flavours of Linux, such
as Ubuntu, Debian, Moblin and Redflag. IVT also offers a dedicated team for
additional GUI customisation services, and free evaluation copies from
www.BlueSoleil.com," commented Jack Yang, IVT's director of sales and
marketing. For licensing, contact jack.yang@ivtcorporation.com,
