AirTouch Communications, Inc. (ATCH) Becomes Approved Telmex Vendor; Receives Initial SmartLinX Purchase Order

AirTouch Communications, developer and supplier of wireless telecommunications devices, today announced it is an approved vendor of Telefonos de Mexico S A B de CV (Telmex), and that it has received an initial order for sale of AirTouch’s patent pending SmartLinX™ (U250).

The SmartLinX device connects a smartphone to a landline, which allows the user to benefit from receiving landline and cellular calls on the same device. This product is compatible with all major smart phones.

Per the purchase order, 2,000 units are expected to be shipped to select Telmex retail outlets, where the company will test the effectiveness of the marketing programs and train sales associates on how to use the products. Once the marketing programs are at the desired state, Telmex plans to release 18,000 units.

The initial order is slated for shipment in the second quarter in Mexico, with the products expected to ship to 400 Mexico Telmex retail stores, Telmex online stores, and on the SNS that Telmex uses to sell its communication equipment. Ultimately, the product will also be shipped throughout Telmex locations in Latin America.

“Telmex has businesses in 19 countries throughout Latin America. Following the introduction of the SmartLinX(TM) U250 device in Mexico, our intent is to bring this product into each of those markets,” Vazquez del Mercado, executive vice president for Corporate Development of Telmex stated in the press release. “Telmex currently sells hundreds of thousands of cordless telephones each year. We are confident that the easy to use U250 may eventually lead to replacing cordless phones among a large portion of our broadband and Wi-Fi network customers.”
