Wireless 2001
LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 20, 2001--Audible, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADBL -
news), the leading provider of Internet-delivered spoken audio
(
www.audible.com) for computer-based listening or mobile playback on
AudibleReady(TM) PC-based portable digital audio players, announced today
that the company will showcase its technology and products at CTIA Wireless
2001. The convention and exposition will take place March 20 - 22, 2001 at
the Sands Expo and Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas. The company's exhibit will
be located in the Microsoft Partner's Pavilion, booth #6325, and demonstrate
the wireless delivery of Audible's premium spoken audio programming to
Pocket PC PDAs for corporate and enterprise applications.
Targeting the estimated 84 million people in the U.S. who drive alone to
work each day, 40 million mobile workers who spend 20 percent of their time
on the road, and more than 50 million people who exercise regularly,
Audible® has the most diverse digital spoken audio content selection, which
offers customers a range of alternatives to broadcast radio programming,
conventional cassette and CD versions of audiobooks and more.
``The applicability and acceptance of Audible's technology and our
tremendous collection of spoken-word content has widened the target market
for wireless delivery of this digital medium,'' commented Thomas Baxter,
president and CEO of Audible, Inc. ``As more people explore entertainment
and business communication options beyond traditional broadcast delivery for
the drive to work and other intermittent travel periods during the day,
Audible's content offerings allow consumers to break the boundaries of the
AM/FM world.
``The corporate application of Audible's technology also represents a
tremendous opportunity,'' continued Baxter. ``Business owners and managers
continue to search for ways to turn windshield time into productive time.
Audible is working with businesses to create and deliver actionable business
content in digital spoken audio, to provide flexibility and improve
time-management.''
