SINGAPORE & SUNNYVALE, Calif. & WATERLOO, Ontario–(BUSINESS WIRE)–June 1, 2006–StarHub Ltd, Palm, Inc.

BlackBerry Connect enables new and existing Treo 650 users to benefit from many popular features of the “push”-based BlackBerry architecture via BlackBerry Enterprise Server(TM).

With BlackBerry Connect, StarHub customers have a greater choice of mobile devices that are supported by the robust and secure capabilities of BlackBerry services and a wider choice of wireless email solutions on the feature-rich Palm Treo 650 smartphone.

“With mobile email becoming an integral part of the business world today, the Treo 650 offers StarHub customers an all-in-one device that simplifies their lives,” said Paul Blinkhorn, vice president for Palm Asia Pacific. “Palm continues to expand its geographic reach, bringing its broad range of world-class, enterprise-strength mobile-computing solutions to a growing customer base. BlackBerry Connect offers StarHub customers even greater flexibility in their choice of enterprise messaging platforms.”

wirelessly — to the Treo 650 smartphone’s VersaMail(R) inbox.
Changes to the inbox, including read/unread status and
deletion, can be automatically synchronized between the user’s

smartphone’s built-in Calendar up to date remotely, allowing

go.

and PDF documents while on the road.

corporate directory wirelessly for email addresses without the
