Following the first launch of Celio's REDFLY Mobile Companion, the company unveiled yesterday two new models: the REDFLY C7 and REDFLY C8N. The REDFLY series of products are smartphone terminals designed to offer the mobile workforce a larger keyboard and screen for easy use of E-Mail, web, business applications, remote access and cloud computing resources. The REDFLY C7 is a new, more affordable model with a power-saving 7" display, light-weight five-hour battery, and feather-light design under 1.5 lbs. The REDFLY C8N is the next evolution of the original REDFLY design, enhanced to allow the use of the eight-inch screen by an iPod, iPhone , Zune, or digital camera. These new Celio products continue to support the smartphone, the most successful mobile computing platform available today, and enable the smartphone's Internet-based and cloud-computing applications.

The REDFLY C7 is the result of a customer-driven plan for a power-efficient, lightweight and more affordable solution. With a power-saving seven-inch display and power-efficient features, the REDFLY C7 uses a lightweight battery that provides up to five-hours of performance, perfect for many mobile users. The REDFLY C7 weighs less than 1.5 lbs., lighter than any mobile computer with a 7"display.

The REDFLY C8N evolved from the original REDFLY design to meet overwhelming customer demand to use the larger screen as an external display for media players such as an iPod, iPhone , Zune, or digital camera. A new REDFLY Media Port and REDFLY Media Cable provide a simultaneous connection as a third USB port and composite video input (NTSC/PAL compatible). Now the REDFLY's 8" 800×480-pixel screen can be used to view photos, show demos and even watch movies.

Available the week of December 1, 2008, the REDFLY C7 and C8N can be pre-ordered today from select Celio resellers listed at www.getredfly.com for a suggested retail price of US$ 229 and US$ 299 respectively.
The REDFLY Media Cable is available for a suggested retail price of US$ 19.95.
