Singapore, February 5, 2002 - Fujitsu PC Asia Pacific is proud to announce the availability of touch screen notebooks that support biometric signature technology.

This technology enables users to electronically 'sign' documents, hence offering virtually tamper-proof security. Once applied, the biometric handwritten signature will render any document unalterable. The contents cannot be changed; neither can the signature be moved, copied or pasted in any way. This process is the most reliable and efficient way to approve and process documents electronically.

At present, Fujitsu is the first notebook vendor that is able to support this technology, thanks to its state-of-the-art touch screen LifeBook B series notebook. Fujitsu has targeted mobile professionals such as insurance agents and sales executives as the likely market for this product. The LifeBook B series, an ultra-portable, 1.3" thin notebook, has always been the preferred model of choice of such mobile professionals.

E-com, the Asia Pacific distributor of the biometric signature software, is impressed with the LifeBook B series' capability in supporting e-signatures for e-paper solutions. E-com firmly believes that e-paper is the document workflow management and contract execution technology of tomorrow.

"We have brought in the latest Handwritten Biometric Signature technology that has been specially developed for the Asia e-signature industry. The incorporation of this software with the latest touch screen technology on a notebook is another first for E-Com and Fujitsu in the Asia Pacific region," said Michael Ryan, General Manager for E-Com. www.ecomaus.com
