Reinforcing its partnership and commitment to fusionOne, Nokia Ventures is also participating in this round. "We have been extremely pleased with the success that fusionOne has achieved thus far," said John Malloy, general partner at Nokia Ventures.

fusionOne is developing a next-generation Internet synchronization service that provides the ability to automatically sync information between PCs, handheld devices, Web sites and mobile phones. Unlike similar technologies that require direct contact between devices (i.e. connection cords or cables), fusionOne utilizes the Internet and wireless carrier services to automatically update devices with information changes, regardless of the device's physical location. fusionOne has recently expanded its service to include 1-Click SyncÔ -- the ability to seamlessly sync pertinent online content, such as travel information, event listings and online directories into users' offline devices. With 1-Click Sync, fusionOne subscribers can instantly integrate online content from the Web into their offline world or "personal data sphere," including their desktop PCs, handheld devices, favorite Portal sites, and even mobile phones - all with the click of a mouse.

"We are confident that fusionOne's innovative architecture and vision will be a driving force behind the new era of pervasive computing," said Rick Onyon, president and co-founder of fusionOne. "The backing and support of such an impressive roster of companies is not only an endorsement of the importance of next-generation synchronization technology and services being developed by fusionOne but also supports the potential for fusionOne to drive the market." fusionOne Secures $50M Mezzanine Round
