FUJITSU PERSONAL SYSTEMS AND LXE JOIN FORCES TO DEVELOP WIRELESS LAN
SOLUTIONS

SANTA CLARA, Calif., August 28, 1995 -- Fujitsu Personal Systems, Inc., the
leading provider of highly integrated mobile computing systems for
corporate and vertical market field automation applications, and LXE, a
manufacturer of wireless data communication systems for manufacturing,
distribution and warehousing applications, today announced a strategic
partnership to develop high-performance wireless LAN solutions.

As technology partners, LXE will integrate its LAN radio and internal
antenna with Fujitsu's Stylistic 500 high-performance tablet computer. The
resulting wireless LAN solution, capable of running Windows applications
over a high-speed 1.6 mbps wireless LAN, will be co-labeled with both the
Fujitsu name and "LXE Mobile Ready" certification, indicating that the
system is fully compatible with LXE's wireless network "backbone." LXE
will provide customers full network integration services, including
facilities analysis, installation, training and support.

"We see tremendous growth in wireless LAN applications, particularly in the
healthcare industry, where the automation of burdensome paperwork and
other tasks can have significant impact on a provider's bottom line." said
Lou Panetta, Fujitsu's executive vice president. "LXE's demonstrated
technical expertise in wireless LANs and sophisticated support services
will allow us to aggressively target this expanding market."

The new Fujitsu/LXE solution will target a variety of applications, such as
healthcare, mobile automation, retail and route accounting. Additional
target markets will include on-site inspection and troubleshooting
applications for the utilities industry and supervisory functions in
warehouse and manufacturing environments.

"Utilizing Fujitsu's Stylistic 500 tablet computer, we've created a
state-of-the-art platform for wireless LAN applications," said Steve
Flemig, LXE's product marketing manager. "The system's unique design
allows us to integrate an LXE internal LAN antenna, which will
significantly reduce equipment repair and returns. Our relationship with
Fujitsu allows us to get ahead of the competition and provide our
customers with exciting new solutions."

The Stylistic 500 is a 2.6-pound tablet computer designed for mobile
workers involved in high-end decision support activities. Powered by an
Intel 486DX2-50 CPU, the system features RAM expandable to 20 MB; two Type
I/II/III PCMCIA version 2.0 slots; and an 8-inch transmissive backlit,
64-level VGA screen. It is the only tablet computer to operate on standard
Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) batteries, which can be purchased in most consumer
retail outlets.
