(My comment: I have posted numerous times about Action Engine previously on this board - this is a Company that knows how to make things happen! Neomedia does now appear to be on a parallel path to what Action Engine has already achieved. I still think it would be great for Neom to convince Action Engine to license qode - it could take Action Engine to the next level.)

Scott G. Silk Recognized as Visionary in Wireless Services
BELLEVUE, Wash. — October 24, 2006 — Action Engine® Corporation, the on-device portal leader, today announced that it has won a Silver Mobile Star Award™ from MobileVillage®, the 14-year leader in market development and news services about mobile technology. The award named Scott G. Silk, president and CEO of Action Engine, as a Visionary in Wireless Services.
The fifth annual Mobile Star Awards™ aim to honor and promote the best companies, products, deployments, and leaders in mobile and wireless technology. Winners are chosen by subscribers to Go Mobile®, MobileVillage’s free online newsletter sent to technology executives, mobile professionals, IT managers, developers, and top tech journalists.
“The Mobile Star Awards program has grown along with the mobile industry,” says MobileVillage Editor Gary Thayer. “This year we saw hundreds of entries in about 60 categories, and nearly 1,000 people took the time to cast votes. The Mobile Star Awards are unique in that the judges are Go Mobile® readers. These people have a great knowledge of mobile products and success stories, and are eager to share that knowledge with the world.”
Since joining the company in 2004, Silk executed on several key strategic decisions that directly led to the company's recent wins with leading media companies and mobile operators, including Globe Telecom, Sprint, Verizon Wireless, SingTel, Optus, MSNBC.com, TiVo, and SmartVideo. In his role as CEO, Silk has led Action Engine to:
1. Create a best-in-class On-Device Portal Platform that overcomes the usability barriers of the mobile device, including screen size, keyboard, and memory and network constraints.
2. Enhance the platform to support a wide-variety of mass-market mobile devices, including those powered by Java, BREW, Windows Mobile, and Symbian.
3. Showcase the power of the platform through a suite of signature solutions that target customer needs in key strategic wireless areas including mobile advertising, mobile search, location-based services (LBS), and mobile entertainment.
4. Broaden the company’s go-to-market strategy to focus on two key customer bases: established media companies and leading edge mobile operators.
As a direct result of the execution of Silk's vision, Action Engine has seen dramatic growth in 2006. The company was also recognized as one of the top 15 emerging wireless companies by Fierce Wireless and was voted one of the top 10 mobile entertainment and content companies by the analyst group IDC.
