FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Glass Lantern QuickFind is released

The easiest data searching application for the Pocket PC.

Washington, DC, 4 February, 2002: Glass Lantern announces the release of Glass Lantern QuickFind, a Windows Powered Pocket PC application that quickly searches any text file. Without the complexity of setting up a full custom database, companies can distribute information such as parts databases, inventory lists, or any other data to their mobile workers. QuickFind allows this information to be rapidly filtered to display the items that the user is seeking. Individuals can use QuickFind to search lists of information such as CD databases, word lists for games, or any other personal information. QuickFind offers the following benefits:

  • High speed searching of any text file. Even files with thousands of lines can be searched in seconds on most Pocket PC devices. (e.g. the Compaq iPaq and all Pocket PC 2002 devices.)

  • Support for add-in storage cards. A file on a Compact Flash or other storage card inserted into the Pocket PC can be searched, allowing for a large number of files as well as larger data sets.

  • Multiple word searches to zero in on specific data, even in large files.

  • The ability to change the current search file with just two taps for rapidly switching between data sets.

  • A no-nonsense user interface. The user types, and QuickFind immediately begins searching, without the need to press a "Search" button.

  • A list of recent searches to avoid re-entry of search data.

  • Site licensing with significant discounts, as well as single-user licenses for individual use.

Some examples where QuickFind can offer simple and fast searching for either corporate or personal use:

  • Parts databases

  • Inventory lists

  • Real estate information

  • CD databases

  • Foreign language dictionaries

  • Miscellaneous information lists such as airport codes or word game/crossword puzzle dictionaries.

A fully functional free demonstration version of QuickFind can be downloaded at http://www.glasslantern.com.
