Worldwide Energy Company Tech Refresh Selects the Goldtouch Adjustable
Keyboard

AUSTIN, Texas, April 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Goldtouch proudly announces it has
been awarded its 2nd global technology refresh with a major Fortune 10 Energy
Company.

"In today's economy, organizations are facing daunting challenges to reduce
costs and increase productivity," said Peter Gilbert, Goldtouch CEO.  "We have
seen sales grow exponentially due to the exceptional quality of our products
and the well established studies that show companies who take a proactive
approach and design their employee programs to work ahead of the injury have
experienced fewer numbers of claims, lower average claim costs, reduced
absenteeism, and improved productivity.  We are extremely pleased to be
partnering with Hewlett Packard and Compucom on this opportunity."

A proactive use of Goldtouch products quickly leads to cost savings related to
injuries as high as 40-50% which is a very compelling and dramatic ROI.  More
importantly, it keeps the workforce safe and productive, while reducing the
employer's exposure to unsafe keying on input devices outside the workplace.

"It is a great testament to the validity of our ROI and the quality of our
product line that we are seeing this global refresh in 140 countries, and 14
languages, some 6 years after initial deployment," stated Christopher Lowe, VP
of Sales and Marketing at Goldtouch, and a Certified Associate Ergonomist
(CAE).

Goldtouch's customer, the Fortune 10 Energy Company, conducted a formal study,

The Goldtouch line of ergonomic keyboards and computer accessories target
workplace productivity improvements and the prevention of work-related
injuries.  Many companies have discovered first-hand the business benefits of
implementing active prevention and risk mitigation programs for employee
safety.  The results have been reduced employee absences/injuries, faster
return from injury, greater productivity and cost savings that can be directly
attributed to the implementation of these programs.
