NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--
Arkadin (www.arkadin.com), a global provider of remote collaboration solutions
including audio conferencing, web conferencing, and streaming media solutions,
today announced the availability of new conferencing tools, Arkadin Mobile
Application, Outlook Add-On and Lotus Notes Add-On. These new features make it
easier than ever for business professionals to remotely collaborate - anytime,
from anywhere. 

Arkadin`s Mobile Application is an add-on for RIM`s BlackBerry which allows
customers to send calendar invites with pre-populated audio and web conference
access details and access the audio conference directly from their mobile phone,
without having to enter account details. In addition, Arkadin is working on
developing the same type of application for iPhone and Windows Mobile OS. 

In addition, Arkadin has developed an Arkadin Add-0n for both Microsoft Outlook
and Lotus Notes email applications. These add-ons allow Arkadin customers to
send calendar invites with pre-populated audio and web conference access details
directly from the integrated toolbar without having to log in. 

Benefits of these conferencing tools:

* Convenient: Save time logging in, finding Access numbers and PIN codes to be
included in the conference email invite. 
* User- friendly: After download, account settings (PIN and Web login) are
automatically integrated. 
* Flexible: Specify and select the access numbers to be displayed in the invite.

* Secure: Only moderators can download the add-on from the Arkadin Web Portal. 
* Easy to integrate:
- All the BlackBerry devices with platform version 4.2 and above are supported.
- Microsoft Outlook (2003 and 2007) on Windows XP/Vista are the only system
requirements.
- Lotus Notes is the only system requirement (version 6.5 or later)

"In today's environment, more of our customers are looking for easy,
cost-effective alternatives to face-to-face meetings. These conferencing tools
will make it easier to schedule and attend meetings, and therefore, further
enhance productivity," said Glenn Fleischman, President of Arkadin North
America.
