InterWrite MeetingPad Improves Communication and Collaboration to Maximize Team Productivity

April 30, 2001 – GTCO CalComp Inc. announced today the release of their new InterWrite MeetingPad. The MeetingPad is a personal meeting device designed to allow the highest level of collaboration and individual contribution in a meeting or training session. MeetingPad users can now annotate, highlight and control presentations from anywhere in the room while the presenter remains front-and-center. The MeetingPad enables user participation by providing an interactive note pad for any type of conference.

The InterWrite Meeting Pad is designed for education, training and general collaboration. With the MeetingPad, all meeting participants can truly take an active part in the presentation by annotating and highlighting as desired. In collaboration, the MeetingPad provides a way for everyone to contribute by giving everyone the ability to add their own thoughts and comments. With this hands-on approach, participants retain critical information and the meeting experience is significantly enhanced.

The InterWrite MeetingPad is a wireless device that enables individual participation from anywhere in the room. Up to eight MeetingPads can be used in a single conference room, providing unsurpassed participation opportunities to suit all meeting goals. The InterWrite MeetingPad is the only personal meeting device that is wireless and allows multiple units to be connected to the same system. The MeetingPad is used with InterWrite software, an intuitive software package that gives users complete control over meeting content, including sophisticated application annotation, viewing, modification and saving capabilities. With the MeetingPad, users can perform all the functions of InterWrite, including full mouse control and annotation.

The InterWrite MeetingPad is designed as the ultimate personal collaboration tool, allowing each person to contribute and giving them the power to convey their ideas and thoughts in a simple, portable, easy to use system. The MeetingPad can be used in conjunction with the InterWrite MeetingBoard, the Suite’s electronic whiteboard, or as a stand-alone device for large group presentations projected on a wall or any other surface.
