Create
New Demand for Your Mobile Hardware
 Greater processing power, storage, and functionality
mean the next generation of handheld devices can play an
increasingly important role in the lives of users. Add
Companion World’s software and services to these new
devices and users have a powerful tool that can
substantially increase the quality of their lives.
Workout programs, along with multimedia exercise
instruction accompany the user anywhere: in a gym, on a
track, traveling on business, etc. Updated workout
programs are communicated from their trainer right to
the device; performance tracking is captured and can be
analyzed by the user and trainer for course corrections,
as needed.
Companion’s market research indicates people view their
lives in a bimodal way: their business life (what they
do to earn a living) and their personal life (family,
health, recreation, etc.). Companion’s software and
services allows hardware makers to address the health
and fitness part of their user’s lives.
"The
Companion opportunity is very compelling for
several reasons. It gives us new marketing
ammunition to create excitement surrounding
our new handheld devices that have more
power and more functionality potential. That
potential becomes a reality when our users
tap in to new programs such as those offered
by Companion¹s consumer service: The Progio.
This isn¹t just a one-time offering; it
allows our customers to acquire new health
and fitness content all the time, giving
people on-going reasons to use our product."
-- Product Manager, Leading Hardware

The health and fitness category is substantial in the
U.S.:
- 210 million people participate in Team Sports
- 50 million people workout at least 3 times per week
- 27 million golfers
Companion Worlds is seeking hardware partners who want
to take advantage of this new interactive know-how on
mobile devices. Companion’s ProXM communications
protocol and the ProXM Player require Windows CE 2003,
Windows Media Player 10, or Windows Mobile 5 or newer.
Other operating platforms will be addressed in the near
future.
Our consumer brand, Progio™, allows consumers to add a
growing list of fitness titles from leading authorities
to their handheld devices. This ensures users have
continued high interest in using their devices and the
opportunity to sell upgrades to their hardware, when
greater performance requirements are needed.
