- SUMMARY: WindowPhone (TM) Group of AG Communication Systems introduces
- version 1.2 of its personal call management system for PCs
-
- PHOENIX, Arizona -- AG Communication Systems Corporation has announced
- availability of WindowPhone (TM) Version 1.2, an innovative personal
- call management system that further enhances user productivity with
- phone book import and export capabilities, a button for quick access
- to other software programs, a last number redial function and
- left/right mouse button support.
-
- The new version is available for immediate delivery through
- MicroWarehouse, Inc., Power Up Software Corporation and The
- Programmer's Shop. Current owners of WindowPhone will receive 1.2 at
- no charge.
-
- WindowPhone 1.2 allows data in other programs to be imported into any
- of its three phone books. The new version also allows database
- information in WindowPhone to be exported into other software
- applications.
-
- A new function called "Launcher" has been added, giving users quick
- access to other Windows and DOS applications with just one click.
-
- Version 1.2 also includes a redial function which provides automatic
- recall of the last number dialed.
-
- After selecting an entry in the call log, phone book or unanswered
- calls window, users can immediately access the caller's database,
- delete the entry or initiate automatic dialing to the caller without
- having to move around the screen.
-
- "We designed WindowPhone 1.2 with the enhancements our customers have
- been asking for, offering users greater flexibility and increased
- productivity. With these upgrades available at the same list price,
- WindowPhone is an inexpensive, sophisticated call management tool for
- home or office applications," says Roger Heldt, WindowPhone general
- manager.
-
- WindowPhone links the PC and telephone using advanced teleconnection
- features and provides many unique benefits with or without the
- availability of Caller ID service. It maintains a complete log of all
- incoming and outgoing call activity--by time, date and duration--when
- the PC is on or off. With Caller ID service, WindowPhone identifies a
- caller by name in a pop-up window on the PC screen, providing instant
- access to detailed caller information.
-
- Even without Caller ID, WindowPhone automatically logs all outgoing
- calls from any extension on the line; maintains thousands of phone
- book entries complete with caller notes, photos, and auto-dial phone
- number listings; blocks outgoing calls to selected prefixes or
- numbers; and much more.
-
- WindowPhone is both a software (requires Microsoft (R) Windows 3.0 or
- higher) and hardware (8-bit Industry Standard Architecture card)
- product, which allows it to provide a unique arsenal of call
- management features without requiring additional peripherals, such as
- a modem, or occupying system serial port addresses.
-
- WindowPhone, which lists for $295, is available for immediate delivery
- by contacting any of these distributors: MicroWarehouse at
- 1-800-367-7080, Power Up Software at 1-800-851-2917 and The
- Programmer's Shop at 1-800-421-8006.
-

- wide range of products and services, including hardware and software
- design, systems engineering and systems integration. The
