“We are delighted to have reached a settlement with Peiker and to grant them worldwide licensing rights for our technology,” said Pat Kennedy, Cellport’s chief executive officer. “This enhanced relationship strengthens the entire hands-free personal telematics category-and provides more motorists with a convenient way to use a wireless phone while driving.”
