VANCOUVER, March 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Absolute(R) Software Corporation (TSX: ABT), the leading provider of firmware-based, patented Computrace(R) Computer Theft Recovery, Data Protection and Secure Asset Tracking(TM) solutions is pleased to announce that Motion Computing(R), a leader in mobile computing technologies, has now embedded support for Computrace in the BIOS of its flagship LE1700 Tablet PC.

Motion is offering Absolute's Computrace(R)Complete(TM) with its LE1700 Tablet PC, the most feature-rich tablet PC on the market. The LE1700 integrates the latest technologies aimed at enhancing productivity of mobile professionals in healthcare, field sales

and service, government and hospitality, and now provides its customers access to the highest level of computer theft protection available on the market.

"Tablet PCs are the most mobile computers available and require diligent tracking to protect an organization's data and assets," said John Livingston, Chairman and CEO, of Absolute Software. "Motion Computing is the leader in the slate tablet PC market and this agreement reinforces that position and firmly establishes our embedded footprint in this growing market."

Computrace helps customers address issues of regulatory compliance, data protection and theft recovery. The software product deters computer theft, recovers stolen computers and provides a $1000 theft Recovery Guarantee(x). Customers may also activate a remote Data Delete feature to protect sensitive data on missing or stolen computers. Computrace addresses issues of regulatory compliance through detailed reporting on asset tracking, hardware and software inventory, software license and lease management, and can help enforce security policies through custom alerts and reporting. Traditional asset management systems can lose track of assets like tablet PCs when they drift to unknown locations or are not connected to the client network. With Computrace, the tablet PC reports changes in asset information on a daily basis over the Internet - regardless of its location.

"The Motion LE1700 tablet PC is portable, durable, innovative, and often used out of the office," said Tony Bonadero, Motion Computing vice president of product management. "Advanced security features and services are important to our enterprise customers as they roll-out larger numbers of tablet PCs to their mobile workers. ComputraceComplete can help our customers protect their tablet PC investment and key data, which is important for us in maintaining our leadership position in the rapidly expanding slate tablet PC market."

As the tablet PC market grows, so do incidences of theft and loss. Over 600,000 mobile computer thefts occurred in 2004, totaling an estimated $720 million in hardware losses and $5.4 billion in theft of proprietary information, according to Safeware The Insurance Agency. Although an FBI study found that 97% of stolen computers are never recovered, Absolute Software recovers three out of four stolen computers that contact its Monitoring Center.
