FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


MARK/SPACE EXPANDS ONLINE STORE WITH MAC-FRIENDLY SOFTWARE FOR PALM OS AND
WINDOWS MOBILE HANDHELDS


LOS GATOS, Calif.--February 24, 2005--Mark/Space, Inc., creator of The
Missing Sync family of products, is now selling the top third-party
applications for Palm OS and Windows Mobile/Pocket PC handheld devices in
their online store. The Mark/Space Online Store is unique in its pure focus
on providing applications from Mac-friendly developers.

"Mac users now have a place to shop for handheld software applications where
they aren't forced to wade through a sea of products that don't support the
Mac," said Eric Ullman, Mark/Space's director of sales and marketing. "We've
compiled a great selection of the most popular applications for both Palm
Powered and Windows Mobile devices to start, and we plan to grow that
selection to become the favorite one-stop handheld software shop for Mac
users."

Brian Hall, Mark/Space's president and CEO, explained that this move is all
part of the company's plan to grow the Mac side of the market for PDAs and
smartphones. "Traditionally, Mac users are early technology adopters, and
they have been a cornerstone of the handheld market. Sadly, we've seen a
drop in industry support for Mac users over the past few years. We're
working hard to reverse that trend, and we're doing it with the help of our
allies represented in the Mark/Space Online Store."

All of the applications sold in the Mark/Space Online Store, including those
for Windows Mobile devices, can be installed from a Mac. Currently,
Mark/Space is offering long-time Mac favorites, including DataViz's
Documents to Go, LandWare's Pocket Quicken, Llamagraphics Life Balance and
SplashData's SplashPhoto.

"We are thrilled to be part of the Mark/Space Online Store, as DataViz has
been committed to the Macintosh platform for the last 21 years," said Annya
Sedakova-Bertram, DataViz. "The store offers a convenient and tailored
shopping experience for any Mac user looking for mobile software."

John Chaffee, president of SplashData, remarked: "We're pleased to have
SplashData's apps available in the new Mark/Space Online Store. SplashData
and Mark/Space share a common commitment to providing Mac enthusiasts with
handheld and desktop software designed exclusively for Mac. Given
Mark/Space's large installed base of loyal Mac users, it's an ideal
distribution channel for us."
