"With Visto Mobile, we deliver a mobile push email service to satisfy the needs of business customers, regardless of their size, email infrastructure, or preferred mobile device," said Ms. Caihong He, president of Lenovo Chinaweal. "The market has been anxiously waiting for a secure, real time mobile email service. In keeping with our strong tradition of innovation, we are proud to be the first to market with Visto and bring the huge productivity benefits of wireless email to China."

"Lenovo's strong leadership position in the Chinese market in combination with Visto's advanced global technology makes this exciting partnership a catalyst for rapid wireless email growth in China," said Brian Bogosian, president, chairman and CEO of Visto. "This service is the first of its kind in China and unlike competing mobile email offerings, the Visto Mobile solution is available immediately on a broad range of mobile devices. China is central to our strategy and we will continue to invest heavily in the region, providing partners such as Lenovo with the superior local resources that are required for driving adoption among China's 400 million mobile users."

Over the last year, Visto has aggressively invested in the Chinese market and has significantly expanded its Asia Pacific operations. With more than 60 people in China and a robust organizational growth plan, Visto will continue to expand and support new market opportunities in Asia. Currently, the company has established sales offices throughout the region and a world-class development centre in Tianjin, China. The Tianjin office is a major R&D centre for Visto, supporting the company's global product and technology vision while providing local support for partners throughout the region.

Lenovo is prepared to deploy the service internally to its own mobile employees, and already has commitments from a number of initial launch customers that include some of China's largest enterprises.
