The Kyocera Early Adopter Program for Aeris was designed to accelerate a new solution's time-to-market by giving system integrators access to a Kyocera Development Kit with modules pre-activated for the Aeris network before they are commercially released later this summer. In addition, participating integrators receive up to three months free access to the Aeris CDMA network with a subscription to AerPort(TM), Aeris's online customer portal.

"The Early Adopter Program gives application developers easy access to our M2M-optimized CDMA network free of charge, allowing them to take advantage of specific quality of service capabilities that have been designed into our network and the new Kyocera modules," said Bob Schoenfield, vice president of business development, Aeris. "This program is unique to Aeris and offers extremely easy enrollment and start-up. After a customer signs up, we establish VPN connectivity and provide Aeris quick start training, quickly preparing the customer to begin the development and testing process with full Aeris developer support."

"Early access to our advanced CDMA modules, tools and support plus free Aeris network access provides system integrators with a significant time to market advantage," said Dean Fledderjohn, general manager of the M2M product line at Kyocera Wireless. "We are happy to partner with Aeris and provide this great value-added program to our customers and partners."
