MotoSAT Introduces the F3 DataStorm, a Commercial Grade Mobile Satellite System for High-Speed Internet Communication

SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 2, 2003 -- For $99 a month in bandwidth fees, an organization may mount a mobile satellite system to the roof of their truck and receive high-speed Internet from almost everywhere on the North American continent.

MotoSAT, makers of the popular DataStorm for mobile satellite connectivity, has been developing a commercial grade mobile satellite system that more than doubles the signal strength of the satellite connection. Dubbed the "F3", this commercial grade DataStorm uses a much larger 1.2 meter satellite dish compared to the smaller .74 meter system popular in the consumer market. The larger dish will allow an organization to stay online in weak signal areas or during sever rain, as well as extend access to Canada, Alaska, Mexico and the Caribbean. The DataStorm is also being used throughout Europe and the Middle East.

"We're finding that many companies are still unaware that broadband connectivity is available in a mobile environment at less than $100 a month for unlimited use," said Mark Wright, CEO and Chairman of MotoSAT. "The DataStorm allows any business to have a remote office that is fully connected no matter where they are at a cost that is more than reasonable."

The DataStorm is a fully automatic, all weather satellite system that works with a personal computer. It can be easily networked to multiple computers with additional hardware. From a parked position, the system may be deployed and lock on satellite in about 3 to 7 minutes. Download speeds are normally 400 to 1500 Kbps rivaling DSL and T1 speeds. Many companies are developing WI-FI access points with the DataStorm to create immediate Hot Spots anywhere the vehicle is parked.

"Connectivity anywhere is not a hit or miss issue as it is in the cellular industry," said Reed Brown, President of MotoSAT. "The DataStorm connects anywhere, with unlimited usage, and unlike cellular, it is high-speed."

MotoSAT has a nationwide dealer base trained in the installation of the DataStorm satellite system.
