Generic Unicoi IconSAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA – April 21, 2003 – Unicoi Systems, Inc. (formerly DSP OS, Inc.), a leading provider of software solutions to the embedded device market, and AIJI System, a world leader in the embedded development tools market, today announced a partnership in which Unicoi will distribute AIJI products throughout the United States and Canada.

The OPENice32-A900 supports the ARM7, ARM9, ARM10, XScale and CDMA/GSM devices. It also supports the Linux GDB debugger, IAR’s Embedded Workbench for the ARM (EWARM), and the ARM SDT/ADS.

“Our partnership with AIJI System moves us closer to our goal of providing a one-stop-shop for embedded developers,” said Unicoi’s President and CEO Greg Coonley. “AIJI has an extremely loyal base of developers in both Europe and Asia. We look forward to extending the reach of their products to the U.S. and Canada.”

“We have been searching for a qualified distribution partner in the U.S. and Canada for quite some time now,” said Chang-Kyun Kim, AIJI’s President and CEO. “Unicoi’s knowledge of the embedded market makes them the perfect fit for our extensive line of emulators and development tools.”
