Lansdowne, PA, September 1, 1994: Accountable Software, Inc. has begun shipping WakeUp! for the Newton(TM) MessagePad(TM) system. WakeUp! allows the business and personal traveler to use their Newton as their travel alarm clock and to remind them of important appointments and deadlines. WakeUp! provides the business or personal traveler with an efficient and unique way to stay on schedule from the time you wake up to the last appointment of the day.

According to David Haabestad, Director of Development, this is one of the lowest priced, and most useful general purpose applications for the Newton. WakeUp! utilizes the touch screen of the Newton as the switch for the snooze alarm - you can't hit the wrong button. The user has the ability to easily customize the snooze alarm length, alarm sound, and alarm volume for each alarm that has been set. You may also tell the program how long an alarm should remain active before it turns itself off. This allows you to conserve batteries in the event that you forget to cancel an alarm. The product ships with complete documentation and can be loaded with or without a speech feature that lets the user know to "Wake Up", that you hit "Snooze", or that you turned the alarm "Off".

WakeUp! is compatible with the original MessagePad(TM), MP100, MP110 and Sharp ExpertPad(TM). WakeUp! functions on all versions of the Newton operating system and requires a Newton Connection Kit or a Newton package loader program for installation. A demonstration copy of WakeUp! is available at no charge on eWorld, America Online, AppleLink and Compuserve's Newton/PIE/PDA forums.

A fully enabled version of WakeUp! is available directly from Accountable Software, Inc. at 800-293-NEWT for $19.95 (US) plus s&h, VISA and MasterCard are accepted. Technical support is provided at no charge through the eWorld/NewtonMail address: Accountable (Accountable@eWorld.com).

Accountable Software, Inc. is one of the original developers of software for the Newton MessagePad and is a member of the PIE Partner Program. The company was formed in 1990 and has been incorporated in Pennsylvania since 1993.
