Posted on: Monday, 11 February 2008, 03:00 CST

Soonr, a global innovator dedicated to making computer files available and useful anytime through any network or web-enabled device, today announced its partnership with CSL, the largest operator in the mobile communications market in Hong Kong.

CSL and Soonr developed and are launching "Get&Share," an innovative service that offers CSL customers on-demand access to their computer files from any mobile phone or web-enabled device.

CSL's "Get&Share" users will also have the ability to access and share documents with others directly from their mobile phones even when their computers are not powered on. Any file in any application can be accessed and shared easily. CSL's "Get&Share" also gives users the ability to remotely search their computer files, access their Outlook email, calendars and contacts, as well as provides the security of continuous secure file backup.

"We're pleased to work with a pioneering partner such as CSL," said Patrick McVeigh, Soonr's chief executive officer. "As a key operator in the Hong Kong mobile market, CSL has consistently provided its customers leading technology solutions to meet their needs. Our partnership with CSL is a great example of our strategy to work with world-class carriers to bring Soonr services to people everywhere."

"CSL's 'Get&Share' offers distinctive advantages that clearly make it the preferred sharing solution for CSL to offer both our business and consumer customers," said Tony Seeto, director, product and business development at CSL. "This partnership with Soonr broadens our value-added service offerings and provides our customers with a best-of-breed solution taking mobility to a whole new level, particularly in the mobile broadband era. Together, we are reinventing how people work, live and communicate."
