Devon IT Named to FierceHealthIT List of Top Health IT Innovators

SafeBook Notebook Thin Client Recognized for Helping Health Companies Achieve HIPAA Compliance

King of Prussia, PA, April 3, 2007 - Devon IT, the fastest growing provider of thin client terminals and innovators of the SafeBook™ thin client notebook, announced today that it has been named to FierceHealthIT's first-ever list of Top Health IT Innovators. This recognition honors Devon IT for its innovation in the health IT industry.

FierceHealthIT is an internationally recognized email newsletter published by FierceMarkets (www.fiercemarkets.com). This free weekly newsletter provides more than 8,000 global subscribers with their weekly "must-know" health IT news.

"Devon IT is excited to have been selected as a FierceHealthIT Health IT Innovator," said Joe Makoid, President, Devon IT. "This prestigious award is yet another validation that the server-centric computing method with thin client terminals and blade utilization can significantly help healthcare IT departments achieve and enhance HIPAA-compliance by protecting patient data from costly security breaches."

Devon IT's thin client computers do not have hard drives, so no data or applications are stored on the devices. Applications are installed directly on organizations' servers, and authorized users have remote access through Citrix ICA or Microsoft RDP protocols. The company's most popular product, the SafeBook, is a mobile laptop that has all of the features healthcare facilities have come to expect from computers, including an affordable purchase price, low total cost of ownership, and the familiar experience of a notebook PC.

"Thin client computing is quickly becoming the preferred way for healthcare IT departments to achieve and enhance HIPAA-compliance," explained Makoid. "But until now, there has been no mobile, HIPAA-ready thin client solution. SafeBook offers the ideal combination of data access, portability and security for all types of healthcare organizations."
