Walsh Wireless Solutions and ZoomSafer Partner to Prevent Distracted Driving

Innovative Solution Combines Smartphone Policy Software With Vehicle Telematics

SAN RAMON, CA–(June 8, 2010) –  Walsh Wireless, a leading provider of wireless technology solutions for corporate customers, and ZoomSafer, the industry leader of policy management software to prevent distracted driving, today announced their partnership to offer FleetSafer, an application designed to help corporate fleet owners and the usage-based insurance industry reduce risk and liability associated with distracted driving.

In March, Walsh Wireless teamed with Sprint to introduce the Walsh DataLogger™ an easy-to-use, self-installed telematics device that enables corporate fleet managers and the usage-based insurance industry to wirelessly monitor the performance of a vehicle, its location and the driver’s behavior in real-time. Through its partnership with ZoomSafer, Walsh Wireless becomes the industry’s first telematics vendor to offer corporate customers and UBI auto insurance carriers a fully integrated solution that modifies employee behavior as it relates to operation of motor vehicles and usage of mobile phones while driving.

Automotive drivers are increasingly texting and emailing while driving, which can lead to crashes and inevitably to lawsuits filed against corporate employers. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that on-the-job automobile crashes cost employers an average of $24,500 per crash, $150,000 per injury and $3,600,000 per fatality.

“Today’s businesses are aware of the swiftly increasing risks associated with distracted driving, and many are enacting policies to manage cell phone use while driving,” said Matt Howard, CEO of ZoomSafer. “FleetSafer for business gives Walsh Wireless the means to enhance the value its Walsh DataLogger solution, enabling corporate customers to minimize liability by proactively encouraging employee motorists to use their mobile phones in safe, legal and responsible ways.”

“We are excited for the opportunity to integrate FleetSafer with our Walsh Datalogger,” said Chick Walsh, Chief Strategy Officer of Walsh Wireless. “FleetSafer is a critical application, which enables our customers to prevent employees from texting and emailing while driving, ensuring hands-free use of phones. The Walsh Datalogger has been designed to add applications for GPS software, driver scoring software and now ZoomSafer software.”

Utilizing the latest in wireless technology and management software, Walsh Wireless and ZoomSafer have built a practical and affordable solution for what is becoming one of the most hazardous trends on the road today.

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — March 10, 2010 — Increasingly automobile insurance companies are adapting the way they charge customers, basing rates more on individual vehicle use and driving behavior. This is known as Usage-based Insurance (UBI). Sprint (NYSE: S) and Walsh Wireless today announced the certification and availability of a solution developed to meet this unique and growing market – the Walsh Wireless Data Logger, powered exclusively by Sprint 3G Mobile Broadband.

The UBI model helps insurance companies be more innovative and competitive in their approach by improving their risk assessment process, reducing customer churn and ultimately reducing the claims received. Drivers could see a reduction in their premiums by being rewarded for low mileage and/or safe driving habits. The Walsh Data Logger provides the ability to wirelessly monitor in real-time the performance of a vehicle, its location and the driver’s driving pattern through an easy-to-use, self-installed device. It can also benefit government entities and businesses that need to better manage large fleets of vehicles.

Company Unveils New ‘Total Connectivity’ Line of Cellular Wireless Solutions at 2010 Digital Signage Expo

San Ramon, California – February 22, 2010 – Responding to rapid growth in the digital signage market and increasing demand for cost-effective connectivity options, Walsh Wireless, a leading innovator in wireless solutions, today announced plans to unveil its Total Connectivity Solutions, a new line of turnkey wireless service offerings, at the 2010 Digital Signage Expo.
