EMBARC

This is a nationwide, wireless information transmission service that provides data delivery via a Motorola NewsStream Receiver to remote laptop, notebook, or palmtop personal computers located within an EMBARC service region. To receive messages on your HP 95LX you will need the EMBARC subscription package, which includes a Motorola NewsStream receiver, HP's Mobile Data Link cradle (HP# F1006A), EMBARC software on RAM card, an EMBARC User's Manual, and a cable. In addition, you will need the basic EMBARC subscription, which costs $15 per month. This allows you to receive unlimited E-mail. Usage fees for sending messages are billed on a monthly basis and vary depending on number of messages you send, priority and length of message, number of receivers message sent to, and requested geographic coverage. As an example, a 300-word message sent nation-wide in the USA within 3 hours would cost approx. $2.00. Information Services may be added to the basic service at fixed monthly rates.

EMBARC is available in over 70 market areas, including most major cities and metropolitan areas in the United States.
