turnkey communication solution for Telcos, ISPs, communities, portals etc. The combination
of wireless data and telephony based upon available technology (ISDN, ADSL, PSTN, CATV) is
a unique offering.
"After 4 weeks of intensive search around the world I found the technology I was looking for to make the FreePad wireless", says Carl Henrik Janson, CEO and founder of Screen Media. The combination of data and PSTN is essential for the FreePad. To be able to utilize existing infrastructure like ISDN and DECT technology the FreePad can be introduced into any markets around the world. "We are convinced that the FreePad will be a large success with the phone and Internet capabilities", says Mr. Janson.

We are now working closely with Screen Media to make the FreePad a great success.", says Franz Dosch, President and co-founder of Dosch & Amand.
