A Forte For AirMail Is EMS' Sky Connect


EMS Sky Connect Owners and pilots of business aircraft who want unfettered access to e-mail via their BlackBerry® smartphones, iPhones and other handheld devices, will want to check out demonstrations of the FortéAirMail™ service, the newest offering from EMS Sky Connect, during the National Business Aircraft Association convention next week. Company representatives will publicly unveil and demo for the first time how the Forté AirMail service uses the Iridium network to reliably provide email access to any WiFi-enabled smartphone or PDA in Exhibit 4489. EMS Sky Connect is a division of EMS Technologies, Inc.

The addition of e-mail complements EMS Sky Connect’s existing Forté products for voice and text, providing a complete office suite in the sky. EMS Sky Connect has more than 4,500 Iridium-based communication systems flying worldwide.
