USAT News USA Technologies Launches World's First Self Contained Roving Business Center on Wheels

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--USA Technologies (OTC Bulletin Board: USAT) has unveiled in New York the PC Express Nomad, the world’s first self-contained roving business center on wheels.

The Nomad is making its debut at the New York International Hotel, Motel and Restaurant Show at the Jacob Javits Center this week where it was judged a finalist in the prestigious Editor’s Choice Award, sponsored by the International hospitality media.

The Company’s latest Business Express® offering is a mobile, public-access, on demand personal computer, which can be connected to the Internet wirelessly, is activated by credit card, and powered by electricity or battery. It comes with a uniquely designed stand on wheels that can be raised or lowered to accommodate users sitting down or standing. For security, the unit is protected by the Lo Jack theft protection service. Printing services are also available.

Its forerunner, the flat panel, wall-mounted PC Express, was a finalist at last year’s International show, and exceeded all sales expectations after its debut, with 100 units sold in less than nine months. Total sales of the PC Express already exceed $600,000 in revenue.

“The Nomad is the ultimate Business Express business center for the hospitality industry, but also opens up new, non-traditional markets where people meet and gather,” said Cecil Ledesma, Vice President and Hospitality Channel Manager, USA Technologies. “We have been overwhelmed with the reception the Nomad has received in New York, not only from the hospitality industry, but also from non-traditional markets such as conventions, marketing conferences, sales-recognition events, healthcare and assisted living facilities.”

With the addition of the Nomad, USA Technologies now offers the most comprehensive 24x7 unattended Business Express business center service available, covering everything from hotel meeting rooms, guest rooms and lobbies, to corporate board rooms, industry events, hospital wards and medical waiting rooms. The Business Express product line was first introduced at the New York international hospitality show nearly 12 years ago where it won for best new product.

“The PC Express Nomad provides 24x7 online access to work or home, giving everyone the convenience of checking email, conducting business, making purchases, or doing research, no matter where they are,” said Mr. Ledesma.

USA Technologies’ Business Express offerings have been among the finalists at the International hospitality show for the past three successive years. The flat panel, wall-mounted PC Express was an Editor’s Choice finalist, the Business Express Mini kiosk won the Editor’s Choice award, and the Business Express Space Saver was judged best new technology and best product in show.

The new PC Express Nomad is yet another example of USA Technologies’ mission of Delivering Value Through Innovation™.
