Press Release Summary: Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and Singapore; September 24, 2007.
hField Technologies today announced the appointment of AsiaFlux Networks Pte. Ltd. as its Singapore and Malaysia distributor for its innovative and high performance wireless product, the Wi-FireTM .
Press Release Body: hField Technologies developed the Wi-Fire, a compact high-performance USB WiFi Adapter for both Windows and Macintosh. With an integrated high gain directional antenna and extremely strong receive sensitivity, the Wi-Fire gives mobile computer users the freedom to connect to WiFi networks when they want, where they want. Users benefit from the increased mobility and greater range with faster speeds as compared to normal built-in or external WLAN cards or adapters.
Wi-Fire provides interoperability with any 802.11 b/g access point and multiplies the effectiveness of wireless networks allowing users to connect to a WiFi network from up to 1,000 feet, more than three times the range of generic or branded 802.11 cards / adapters, at significantly higher speeds, and even in locations where no wireless signal could be detected previously.
Wi-Fire, only 7.5cm by 10cm with a sleek 9mm thickness, is small, easy-to-use, and folds up with its mounting device and retracting USB cable for portability.
"Wi-Fire is the perfect device - light weight and easy to use - for the seriously mobile IT user as well as normal users who have problems connecting to their regular wireless network because of distance, obstacles or other interference," said Tom DiClemente, hField's Chief Executive Officer. "We're dedicated to Mobile IT users connecting better, faster and more economically."
Wi-Fire is also available for Windows XP. Linux and Vista version are being developed and should be ready before year end.

They have an innovative product that caters to both the mobile warrior as well as the average user who is just trying to get better connectivity, speed and performance.
