The agreement extends the number of Office Depot stores where the OmniSky service is available to more than 500 nationwide. With the availability of OmniSky in Office Depot retail stores, OmniSky further establishes itself as the most widely available wireless, device-independent service for Palm and Pocket PC devices.
Office Depot will carry the OmniSky wireless modem and service for the Palm V and Vx, Handspring Visor Platinum, Visor Prism and Visor Edge, and a special bundle for the Hewlett-Packard Jornada 540 and 520 Series Pocket PC that includes the OmniSky service and Novatel modem.

"Customers can have the convenience of one-stop shopping from a well-respected, customer-oriented retailer who is committed to delivering a positive buying experience."
"As more and more of our customers rely on wireless products and services, we are pleased to be able to offer OmniSky's award-winning service," said Steve Embree, executive vice president of merchandising for Office Depot.
