Devon IT Announces Third Straight Record Quarter as Thin Client Sales Skyrocket

Record Demand Amongst Health, Education, and Financial Verticals Clear Evidence that Server-Centric Secure Computing is Set to Explode

King of Prussia, PA, October 30, 2006 - Devon IT, the fastest-growing provider of thin client terminals and innovators of the SafeBook™ thin client notebook, today announced its third straight record sales quarter. The company sold the most thin client terminals since its inception, and successfully launched its new SafeBook thin client notebook.

"We're seeing skyrocketing interest from the healthcare, education, banking, and insurance industries that understand the value in thin clients as a means of protecting data and saving precious dollars," stated Joe Makoid, President, Devon IT. "With support from Citrix and IBM, we've been able to fulfill this exploding demand for thin clients with competitively-priced products. The successful launch of the innovative SafeBook will help us continue this momentum."

Devon IT also announced the availability of its NTA 6030 line of fanless thin client terminals, priced starting at $239. The company's thin clients use the Florida-based Citrix servers, among others, and IBM hardware to ensure data security and virtually eliminate spyware, viruses, and end-user errors. The new SafeBook thin client notebook provides these same features, but also provides the mobility the business world has come to rely on.

"Well-publicized laptop thefts, including those at the federal level, coupled with the necessity for mobile computing, has fueled the need for server centric computing to be facilitated in the world of notebooks," explained Makoid. "The lack of broadband availability everywhere and an inflated price point has deterred thin client notebooks in the past. With now prevalent broadband capabilities and our highly competitive price point, we expect SafeBook to make an immediate impact in the world of business and technology."

SafeBook, starting at $799, was also recently featured in the Philadelphia Inquirer (www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/15712719.htm) as a leading innovation in data security.
