The Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT(R)) and eSignal, a division of
Interactive Data Corporation (NYSE: IDC), today announced CBOT
Advantage Wireless - a real time solution for delivering streaming
quotes, charts and market news to mobile devices. CBOT Advantage
Wireless, available to new subscribers for free over a 30-day trial
period, offers greater access and flexibility for users of the
Exchange's market data. Product information is available at
www.cbot.com/wireless. "Due to the ever-changing nature of our
markets, CBOT market participants must be able to access the
timeliest information as they make important decisions," said Steve
Dickey, vice president of market data products at the CBOT. "CBOT
Advantage Wireless is the ideal solution for participants seeking
mobile connectivity to the market. It offers easy-to-use features
and functionality and its screens are easy to follow." Compatible
with many mobile devices including Palm-based Treo products,
Blackberry devices, and HP's iPAQ product line, CBOT Advantage
Wireless is available as a stand-alone solution, or as a companion
to the existing browser-based CBOT Advantage product. "Because we
had successfully launched CBOT Advantage in June 2003, it was an
easy next step to join forces again to launch CBOT Advantage
Wireless," said Chuck Thompson, president of eSignal. "Timing is
essential in the futures market, and being anchored to a terminal
or PC is not always possible. Now, CBOT market participants can
track commodities and financial futures wirelessly, in real time."
CBOT Advantage Wireless will be available on a stand-alone basis,
including CBOT real-time market data, for $99.95 per month. The
product will also be available for $24.95 as an add-on to CBOT
