Original Press Release:
GiveMePower Launches Commercial Operations With PowerCAD CE, the World's First Full-Powered 2 and 3D CAD Line for Windows CE Mobile/Wireless Computing
January 30, 2002 LAS VEGAS, NV AND CALGARY, AB. Nearly two years of preparation and millions of dollars in product development have preceded the official commercial launch of GiveMePower Corporation (OTC: GMPW) and its PowerCAD CE(TM) - the world's first full-powered 2 and 3 dimensional CAD line for the exploding world of Windows CE® based portable/wireless computing.
For the first time, full-featured CAD processing is available directly in the field or on the shop floor, allowing billions of existing DWG®, DXF® and FLX® designs and drawings to be remotely viewed, edited or created on Pocket PC's or Handheld PC's running Microsoft's Windows CE mobile operating system.
"No other portable CAD system has the range of functionality and depth of desktop integration contained in our PowerCAD CE product line," says Bill Walton, President and CEO of GiveMePower. "This is due largely to major technological hurdles involved in developing the small footprint needed for full featured CAD processing on Windows CE devices. Mobile viewing and markup is great, and our PowerCAD CE Viewer competes well in this market. But when you need full-powered, programmable CAD on a handheld device, there is simply no competition at this point in time for our higher-end PowerCAD CE Classic and PowerCAD CE Pro products."
Three PowerCAD CE versions - PowerCAD CE Viewer ($99), PowerCAD CE Classic ($249) and PowerCAD CE Pro ($495) allow users to view, mark-up, edit, create and collaborate on designs and drawings using portable/wireless devices running Microsoft's Windows CE® operating system. PowerCAD CE utilizes Microsoft's ActiveSync® system, letting users transfer data, wirelessly if properly equipped, to and from companion desktop/laptop networks in real time.
Leveraging core PowerCAD desktop technologies, PowerCAD CE has been optimized for high speed operation on leading Pocket PC's such as Compaq's iPAQ®, Hewlett Packard's Jornada®, and Casio's Casseopedia®, as well as emerging tablet size handheld devices from companies such as Siemens, Husky and Advantech which offer long battery life, high resolution screens, rugged design and built-in wireless networking capabilities.
With up to 200 intuitive and industry compliant commands, PowerCAD CE runs as a completely self-contained portable CAD system, or serves as a perfect mobile extension for PowerCAD Pro(TM), AutoCAD® and other leading desktop systems that utilize industry standard DWG, DXF or FLX file formats.
For the ultimate portable CAD experience, PowerCAD CE Pro features advanced 3D functions and complete system customization using LISP and C/C++ programming. PowerCAD's unique Desktop and Menu Editor (DME) allows users of any skill level to easily tailor the default PowerCAD CE Pro user interface to precisely fit their requirements.
PowerCAD CE is one of numerous value-priced desktop/mobile CAD products and software developer systems scheduled for future release by GiveMePower.
