PDA
Charlottesville, VA July
1, 2004 -- Handango,
the leading provider of mobile downloads, announced the winners
for the annual Handango Champion Awards at an awards ceremony
in San Diego, California on June 25, 2004. Unbound Medicine,
a leading provider of handheld, wireless, and Web solutions
for healthcare, won the award for the Best Medical Application
for Windows Mobile™ -based Pocket PC devices.
The Handango Champion Awards
recognize outstanding mobile software applications
and developers. Judged by members of the media
and other industry experts, the 2004 Handango
Champion Awards were presented in a ceremony
sponsored by Sony Ericsson, Nokia, palmOne and
Microsoft.
Unbound Medicine's Davis's
Drug Guide with Auto-Updates won the award
for Best Medical Application for the Pocket
PC. This comprehensive and up-to-date reference,
published by F.A. Davis Company, provides need-to-know
information on thousands of brand-name and
generic drugs. Via Unbound Medicine's award-winning
PDA platform, Davis’s Drug Guide stays
up to date simply by synchronizing the handheld.
There is no need to download large files and
re-install the entire application with every
update. Instead, new medications are downloaded
to the handheld automatically the moment they
become available.
"We are proud to recognize
Unbound Medicine for their outstanding achievements
in the medical software field," said Clint
Patterson, vice president of marketing of Handango. “With
the help of our elite panel of judges, we are
able to acknowledge Unbound Medicine for their
exceptional software, which has made the lives
of Handango’s customers more productive.”
"We are delighted to
be recognized by Handango and the expert panel
for our quality handheld offerings" said
Bill Detmer, MD, president of Unbound Medicine. "Together
with our publishing partners, we strive to provide
the highest quality, need-to-know information
to health professionals on the go."
In addition to winning the
Champion Award in the Medical Pocket PC category,
Unbound Medicine was also nominated for two Palm
OS applications – 5-Minute Clinical
Consult and Harrison's Manual of Medicine.
These titles along with the winning Davis’s
Drug Guide are available for trial and purchase
at the Handango
