>Code Factory launches user-centred licensing for its software running 
>on the Windows Mobile® platform New Licensing Method enables Activation 
>Anytime From Anywhere, Free Movement of Licenses Between Devices, and 
>more!
>
>Terrassa Spain-October 2nd, 2007, Today, Code Factory, the global 
>leader in mobile software development for the blind and visually 
>impaired, announces that it is introducing a new licensing method for 
>its products running on the Windows Mobile operating system, providing 
>its users with unparalleled flexibility in how they activate and use the
software they purchase.
>
>Formerly, users of Code Factory products for Windows Mobile licensed 
>their devices using a serial number generated by the device. This 
>serial number was sent to Code Factory and a license code received 
>which allowed the device to run the software. This device-based 
>licensing method made it necessary to activate the device manually, by 
>entering long codes, from the PC or device, to charge a small fee to 
>move from one device to another, and to enter a new serial number 
>whenever a new product or enhancement was purchased.
>
>All these drawbacks have been overcome with the new licensing method.
>User-centred licensing, where the product is licensed to the user and 
>not to any particular device, allows users to activate their mobile 
>device anytime and anywhere through their PCs, via the internet from 
>the device itself, or by sending an SMS/text message. Users can now 
>move their licensed software from device to device free of charge an 
>unlimited number of times. There is no need to enter any codes into the 
>device itself, the process is entirely automated and all the user need 
>do is initiate the request for an activation.
>
>"Our products support the largest number, and widest range, of mobile 
>devices in the AT industry," says Eduard Sánchez Palazón, C.E.O. of 
>Code Factory. "Our customers demand flexibility in the way they use 
>their software and hardware, and that's what this new licensing system 
>is all about. Users of our products can now activate their software 
>wherever and whenever they like, they can activate quickly and easily 
>and, most importantly of all, they're able to keep up, free of charge, 
>with increasingly innovative mobile devices."
>
>Larry Lewis, President of Flying Blind, agrees: "In an industry where 
>it's fashionable for companies to charge customers thousands of dollars 
>to update proprietary solutions that are out of date within months of 
>being released, it's both mind-blowing and refreshing for those of us 
>who are vision impaired to benefit from such an innovative approach to 
>portable information management. I've been an exceedingly satisfied 
>Mobile Speak customer for over three years, and compared to the costs 
>that I accrued when I used a legacy notetaker, have spent a minimal 
>amount in phone upgrade fees to move between four different mobile 
>phones. But I'm both excited by, and impressed with, this incredible 
>news and what it means for those of us who are blind and use mobile
applications!"
>
>Code Factory will be releasing version 2.0 of Mobile Speak for Pocket 
>PCs and Mobile Speak for Windows Mobile Smartphones in the coming 
>weeks. This will be a free upgrade for all current users. Upon the 
>release of version 2.0 of each product, all current users will have the 
>opportunity to migrate to the new licensing system. Users will be able 
>to activate, deactivate, and reactivate their software using a PC with 
>an Internet connection, wireless internet and/or cellular internet 
>access directly from their mobile device, or through SMS text 
>messaging. To read in greater depth about the many advantages of the 
>new licensing method, visit: http://www.codefactory.es/ucl
