July 20th, 2007

Epson has announced that it has entered into a licensing agreement with

Microsoft to join the Windows rally program. Using Microsoft Windows rally

technologies, Epson plans to launch a series of products featuring advanced

connectivity with Windows Vista.

The Windows rally program is a technology licensing program offered by

Microsoft to hardware manufacturers, software developers and service providers.

Participants in the program have access to Microsoft Windows rally technologies,

which comprise a range of functions for network-connected devices.

Using devices compatible with Windows rally technologies, program

participants can offer simple, secure, wireless LAN configurations. The

technology also enables software to check the status of network-connected

devices and detect such devices for simple transmission of data.
