First of all, here are the numbers:
GE POWER SYSTEMS
“will be have 1000 MA Vs rolled out, worldwide by the end of 2001.”
This is a 100% rollout to all field engineers.
MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES
“Several Pilot projects in 2001 with XYBR”
concluded by saying “This is key technology for manufacturing…The evolution starts now”
FEDEX
is taking delivery of “190 MAVs in the next few weeks” for aircraft maintenance.
BELL CANADA
didn’t give any numbers but said that they will be continuing their rollout with the MAVs. BC will be issuing a press release with productivity numbers.

Here are the quotations:
Andy White of GE said “for our field engineers, the laptop will be gone”
“this is a huge productivity savings for us” “Our field engineers will be wearing the control room…. A job that took two engineers can now be done by one”
Russ Young of FedEx “we chose xybernaut because they stood by us all along. Xybernaut was ready, nobody else was up to the task”
