| Description: | It's a cold, simple fact - one in every six mobile phones will be lost or stolen this year. That means that out of your friends and family, one in every six experience the pain of trying to recreate their address book. Most people have at least 25 contacts in their phone. If you lost your 25, how long would it take you to recreate your phone book? Could you remember all of the numbers or would you lose some forever? And what about all of your photos, games, and ringtones? With FusionOne's user-friendly mobile phone backup and restore service, you'll always have access to your mobile phone's content - even if it gets lost or stolen. Imagine, no more manually retyping contact information, no more digging through records to find phone numbers, no more re-downloading content. FusionOne's service automatically saves a copy of your phone's content, continually updating it to ensure that it's always ready to go whenever you need it. FusionOne's backup and restore solution provides consumers: * Complete phone-based account creation and set up - no PC required * Automatic daily backup performed on user-selected schedule * Delta changes only * Effortless restoration and transfer, even when the user changes phones * Absolute data integrity via a secure data center * Companion web site for online address book printing and editing (changes transferred to the phone upon logoff) For carriers, FusionOne offers the ability to customize its solutions, creating added value tailored exactly to what your customer wants. How effective is FusionOne's service? A report by Telephia, the mobile industry's leading provider of performance measurement information, recently ranked Backup Assistant for Verizon Wireless, a branded version of FusionOne's mobile content backup/restore solution, in the top ten among revenue-generating downloadable mobile applications.
