ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.

     The securities to which this statement relates are shares of
Common  Stock,  par  value $.001 per share ("Common  Stock"),  of
MobiNetix  Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company").
The  Company's  principal executive offices are  located  at  500
Oakmead Parkway, Sunnyvale, California 94086.

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

     This  statement  is  filed by Federated  Department  Stores,
Inc.,   a   Delaware   corporation  ("Federated").    Federated's
principal  business  is  the operation  of  full-line  department
stores.   Federated's principal executive offices are located  at
151 West 34th Street, New York, New York 10001 and 7 West Seventh
Street, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202.

     Schedule  I  hereto, which is incorporated  herein  by  this
reference, sets forth the name, the business address, the present
principal  occupation  or  employment (and  the  name,  principal
business and address of any corporation or other organization  in
which  such employment is conducted), and the citizenship of  the
directors and executive officers of Federated.

     Neither  Federated nor, to its knowledge, any of the persons
identified in Schedule I hereto has, during the last five  years,
been  convicted  in  a  criminal  proceeding  (excluding  traffic
violations  or similar misdemeanors) or been a party to  a  civil
proceeding  of  a  judicial or administrative body  of  competent
jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject
to a judgment, decree, or final order enjoining future violations
of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or
state  securities laws or finding any violation with  respect  to
such laws.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

     On  March  16,  1998, Federated, through  its  wholly  owned
subsidiary Federated Systems Group, Inc. ("FSG"), entered into  a
Systems Acquisition Agreement (the "Acquisition Agreement")  with
the  Company,  providing  for the acquisition  by  FSG  from  the
Company of certain electronic signature capture products.   Under
the  terms  of  the Acquisition Agreement, FSG  was  to  pay  the
purchase  price for such products following the delivery  thereof
to FSG.  On March 20, 1998, Federated caused FSG to enter into an
amendment   to   the  Acquisition  Agreement  (the  "Amendment"),
pursuant to which FSG agreed to pay to the Company $5,000,160  as
an  advance  payment  of  a portion of the total  purchase  price
payable  for the products to be delivered by the Company  to  FSG
pursuant  to  the  Acquisition  Agreement.   FSG  had  previously
included  the  total  purchase price for  such  products  in  its
capital  expenditure budget to be paid from its general corporate
funds.  As an inducement to Federated's willingness to cause  FSG
to  enter  into  the Amendment, the Company agreed  to  issue  to
Federated a Common Stock Purchase Warrant, dated as of March  20,
1998 (the "Warrant").

     Pursuant to the Warrant, Federated has the right to purchase
from the Company, from time to time, in whole or in part, 125,000
shares  of Common Stock at an exercise price of $3.75 per  share.
The  exercise  price  and  the  number  and  kind  of  securities
purchasable  upon  exercise  of  the  Warrant  are   subject   to
adjustment  as  specified therein.  It is presently  contemplated
that Federated would use its working capital to fund the purchase
price payable in connection with any purchase of shares of Common
Stock upon exercise of the Warrant.

     The  foregoing response to this Item 3 is qualified  in  its
entirety  by reference to the Warrant, the full text of which  is
filed  as  Exhibit  1  hereto  and incorporated  herein  by  this
reference.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

     The  responses to Items 3, 5, and 6 are incorporated  herein
by this reference.

     Federated's principal purpose for obtaining the Warrant  was
to  take  advantage  of what it perceived as  an  opportunity  to
enable itself to acquire an equity interest in the Company at  an
attractive price.

     Federated may acquire shares of Common Stock (upon  exercise
of  the Warrant or otherwise), dispose of shares of Common  Stock
owned  by  it (including without limitation shares purchase  upon
exercise of the Warrant), or take such other actions with respect
to  the  Company or any of its securities, as Federated,  in  its
discretion,  determines to be desirable or  appropriate,  at  any
time  and in any manner permitted by law.  In this regard, as  of
the date of this statement, the Company and Federated are engaged
in  discussions regarding the possibility of a direct  investment
in  the Company by Federated. The Company and Federated have  not
entered  into definitive documentation with respect to  any  such
investment  and, accordingly, no assurance can  be  given  as  to
whether such an investment will be made by Federated or, if  such
an investment is made, as to the terms or timing thereof.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     The  responses to Items 3, 4, and 6 are incorporated  herein
by this reference.

     By  reason of the Warrant, Federated may be deemed to be the
beneficial  owner of 125,000 shares of Common Stock, or  7.5%  of
the  total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding or deemed
outstanding  pursuant  to Rule 13d-3(d)(1) under  the  Securities
Exchange  Act of 1934, as amended.  If Federated were to exercise
the  Warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock, Federated  would
have  the  sole  power  to  vote and dispose  of  all  shares  so
purchased.

     Except  as  disclosed in this statement,  neither  Federated
nor,  to  its  knowledge,  any  of  the  persons  identified   on
Schedule I hereto have effected transactions in shares of  Common
Stock during the preceding 60 days.

ITEM 6. CONTRACTS,  ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS
        WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     The  responses to Items 3, 4, and 5 are incorporated  herein
by this reference.

     The  Warrant  provides that Federated  will  have  so-called
"piggyback"  registration rights with respect to  any  shares  of
Common Stock purchased by Federated upon exercise of the Warrant.

     The  foregoing response to this Item 6 is qualified  in  its
entirety  by reference to the Warrant, the full text of which  is
filed  as  Exhibit  1  hereto  and incorporated  herein  by  this
reference.
     
ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.

     Exhibit 1 --    Common  Stock Purchase Warrant, dated  March
                     20,  1998,  issued  by  the Company  in  favor  of
                     Federated


                           SIGNATURES

     After  reasonable inquiry, and to the best of  my  knowledge
and  belief,  I  certify that the information set forth  in  this
statement is true, complete and correct.

                     MOBINETIX SYSTEMS, INC.

        WARRANT TO PURCHASE 125,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK



     THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, Federated Systems
Group (the "Holder") is entitled to subscribe for and purchase
from MobiNetix Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), 125,000 shares (as adjusted pursuant to Section 3
hereof) of the fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock (the
"Shares"), of the Company at the price per share as determined in
accordance with Section 1(b) below (the "Exercise Price") (and as
adjusted pursuant to Section 3 hereof), subject to the provisions
and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.  This
Warrant has been executed and delivered by the Company as an
inducement to Holder's willingness to cause its subsidiary,
Federated Systems Group, Inc., to agree to enter into the
Amendment to Systems Acquisition Agreement, dated even date
herewith, between the Company and Holder.

     This Warrant is subject to the following terms and
conditions:

     1.     Method of Exercise; Payment.

          (a)    Cash Exercise.  The purchase rights represented
by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, in whole or in
part, from time to time by the surrender of this Warrant (with
the notice of exercise form (the "Notice of Exercise") attached
hereto as Exhibit A duly executed) at the principal office of the
Company, and by the payment to the Company of an amount equal to
the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of the Shares being
purchased, which amount may be paid, at the election of the
Holder, by wire transfer or certified check payable to the order
of the Company.  The person or persons in whose name(s) any
certificate(s) representing Shares shall be issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the
holder(s) of record of, and shall be treated for all purposes as
the record holder(s) of, the Shares represented thereby (and such
Shares shall be deemed to have been issued) immediately prior to
the close of business on the date or dates upon which this
Warrant is exercised.

          (b)    Initial Exercise Price.  The initial Exercise
Price shall be $3.75.

          (c)    Stock Certificates.  In the event of any
exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates
for the shares of Common Stock so purchased shall be delivered to
the Holder within a reasonable time and, unless this Warrant has
been fully exercised or has expired, a new Warrant representing
the shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not have been
exercised shall also be issued to the Holder within such time.

     2.     Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares.  All of the
Shares issuable upon the exercise of the rights represented by
this Warrant will, upon issuance and receipt of the Exercise
Price therefor, be fully paid and nonassessable, and free from
all preemptive rights, rights of first refusal or first offer,
taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issuance thereof.
During the period within which the rights represented by this
Warrant may be exercised, the Company shall at all times have
authorized and reserved for issuance sufficient shares of its
Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights
represented by this Warrant.

     3.     Mechanical Adjustments.  The Exercise Price and the
number and kind of Shares purchasable upon exercise of this
Warrant will be subject to adjustment as follows:
     
            (a) Subject to Section 3(f), if the Company (i) pays
       a dividend or otherwise distributes to all of its holders
       of its Common Stock, as such, shares of its capital stock
       (whether Common Stock or capital stock of any other
       class), (ii) subdivides its outstanding shares of Common
       Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock,
       (iii) combines its outstanding shares of Common Stock
       into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or (iv)
       issues any shares of its capital stock in a
       reclassification of its outstanding shares of Common
       Stock (including any such reclassification in connection
       with a consolidation, merger or other business
       combination transaction in which the Company is the
       continuing or surviving corporation), then the number and
       kind of Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant
       immediately prior thereto will be adjusted so that the
       Holder will be entitled to receive (A) in the case of a
       dividend or distribution, the sum of (1) the number of
       Shares that, if such Warrant had been exercised
       immediately prior to such adjustment, the Holder would
       have received upon such exercise and (2) the number and
       kind of additional shares of capital stock that the
       Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of
       such dividend or distribution by virtue of its ownership
       of such Shares, (B) in the case of a subdivision or
       combination, the number of Shares that, if such Warrant
       had been exercised immediately prior to such adjustment,
       the Holder would have received upon such exercise,
       adjusted to give effect to such subdivision or
       combination as if such Shares had been subject thereto,
       or (C) in the case of an issuance in a reclassification,
       the sum of (1) the number of Shares that, if this Warrant
       had been exercised immediately prior to such adjustment,
       the Holder would have received upon such exercise and
       retained after giving effect to such reclassification as
       if such Shares had been subject thereto and (2) the
       number and kind of additional shares of capital stock
       that the Holder would have been entitled to receive as a
       result of such reclassification as if such Shares had
       been subject thereto.  An adjustment made pursuant to
       this paragraph (a) will become effective immediately
       after the record date for the determination of
       shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or
       distribution in the case of a dividend or distribution
       and will become effective immediately after the effective
       date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification
       in the case of a subdivision, combination or
       reclassification.
     
            (b) Subject to Section 3(f), if the Company
       distributes to all of its holders of its Common Stock, as
       such, (i) evidences of indebtedness or assets (excluding
       regular cash dividends or cash distributions payable out
       of consolidated retained earnings) of the Company or any
       corporation or other legal entity a majority of the
       voting equity securities or equity interests of which are
       owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company (a
       "Subsidiary"), (ii) shares of capital stock of any
       Subsidiary, (iii) securities convertible into or
       exchangeable for capital stock of the Company (including
       Common Stock or capital stock of any other class) or any
       Subsidiary, or (iv) any rights, options or warrants to
       purchase any of the foregoing (excluding those described
       in Section 3(c)), then, the number of Shares thereafter
       purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant will be
       adjusted to the number that results from multiplying the
       number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
       Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment by a
       fraction (not to be less than one), the numerator of
       which will be the Current Market Price per share (as
       defined in Section 3(e)) of Common Stock on the record
       date for such distribution, and the denominator of which
       will be such Current Market Price per share of Common
       Stock less the fair value (as determined in good faith by
       the Board of Directors of the Company, whose
       determination will be conclusive if based on the
       financial advice of a nationally recognized investment
       banking firm) of the portion of the evidences of
       indebtedness, assets, securities or rights, options or
       warrants so distributed on account of one share of Common
       Stock.  Such adjustment will be made whenever any such
       distribution is made, and will become effective
       immediately after the record date for the determination
       of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution.
       Except as provided in Section 3(i), no further
       adjustments of the number of Shares will be made upon the
       actual issue of shares of Common Stock upon conversion or
       exchange of such securities convertible or exchangeable
       for shares of Common Stock or upon exercise of such
       rights, warrants or options for shares of Common Stock.
     
            (c) Subject to Section 3(f), if the Company issues
       rights, options or warrants to all of its holders of the
       outstanding shares of Common Stock, as such, entitling
       the holders of such rights, options or warrants (for a
       period expiring within 60 calendar days after the record
       date mentioned below) to subscribe for or purchase shares
       of Common Stock at a price per share that is lower on the
       record date mentioned below than the Current Market Price
       per share of Common Stock on such record date, then the
       number of Shares thereafter purchasable upon the exercise
       of this Warrant will be adjusted to the number that
       results from multiplying the number of Shares purchasable
       upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
       adjustment by a fraction (not to be less than one), the
       numerator of which will be the number of shares of Common
       Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of
       additional shares of Common Stock offered by such rights,
       options or warrants for subscription or purchase and the
       denominator of which will be the number of shares of
       Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the
       number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate
       subscription or purchase price of the total number of
       shares of Common Stock so offered would purchase at the
       Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on such
       record date.  Such adjustment will be made whenever such
       rights, options or warrants are issued, and will become
       effective immediately after the record date for the
       determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
       rights, options or warrants.  In case such subscription
       or purchase price may be paid in a consideration part or
       all of which is in a form other than cash, the fair value
       of such consideration will be as determined by the Board
       of Directors of the Company, whose determination will be
       conclusive if based on the financial advice of a
       nationally recognized investment banking firm.  Except as
       provided in Section 3(i), no further adjustments of the
       number of Shares will be made upon the actual issue of
       shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such rights,
       options or warrants.
     
            (d) Subject to Section 3(f), if the Company issues
       shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into or
       exchangeable for shares of Common Stock (excluding shares
       of Common Stock or convertible or exchangeable securities
       issued in any of the transactions described in paragraph
       (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 3) for a purchase price
       per share of such Common Stock, or for a conversion or
       exchange price per share of Common Stock initially
       deliverable upon conversion or exchange of such
       securities, that is less than the Series C Conversion
       Price (as defined in the Company's Restated Certificate
       of Incorporation) or, if there are no shares of Series C
       Preferred (as defined in the Company's Restated
       Certificate of Incorporation) then outstanding, the
       Current Market Price per share of the Common Stock, in
       either case, on the date the purchase, conversion or
       exchange price of such additional shares of Common Stock
       is first fixed (the "Adjustment Determination Price"),
       then the number of Shares thereafter purchasable upon the
       exercise of this Warrant will be adjusted to the number
       that results from multiplying the number of Shares
       purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant immediately
       prior to such adjustment by a fraction (not to be less
       than one), the numerator of which will be the number of
       shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date plus the
       number of additional shares of Common Stock so issued or
       issuable upon such conversion or exchange, and the
       denominator of which will be the number of shares of
       Common Stock outstanding on such date plus the number of
       shares of Common Stock which the aggregate purchase,
       conversion or exchange price received or receivable by
       the Company for such additional shares of Common Stock
       would purchase at the Adjustment Determination Price.
       Such adjustment will be made whenever such shares of
       Common Stock or convertible or exchangeable securities
       are issued, and will become effective immediately after
       the effective date of such event.  In case such purchase,
       conversion or exchange price may be paid in a
       consideration part or all of which is in a form other
       than cash, the fair value of such consideration will be
       as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company,
       whose determination will be conclusive if based on the
       financial advice of a nationally recognized investment
       banking firm.  Except as provided in 3(i), no further
       adjustment will be made upon the actual issue of shares
       of Common Stock upon conversion or exchange of such
       securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of
       Common Stock.
     
            (e) For purposes of this Warrant, the "Current
       Market Price" per share of Common Stock on any date will
       be the average of the daily closing prices for 20
       consecutive Trading Days commencing 30 Trading Days
       before the date of such computation.  The closing price
       for each day (the "Closing Price") will be the last
       reported sales price regular way or, in case no such
       reported sale takes place on such day, the average of the
       closing bid and asked prices regular way for such day, in
       each case on the principal national securities exchange
       on which the shares of Common Stock are listed or
       admitted to trading or, if not so listed or admitted to
       trading, the average of the closing bid and asked prices
       of the shares of Common Stock in the over-the-counter
       market as reported by the National Association of
       Securities Dealers, Inc. Automated Quotation System or
       any comparable system, or if not so reported by any such
       organization on such day, the average of the bid and
       asked prices furnished by a professional market maker
       selected by the Board of Directors of the Company.  In
       the absence of one or more such quotations, the Board of
       Directors of the Company will determine the Current
       Market Price in good faith on the basis of such
       quotations or other relevant information as it considers
       appropriate.
     
            (f) No adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares
       purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant will be
       required unless such adjustment would require an increase
       or decrease in the number of Shares purchasable upon the
       hypothetical exercise of the Warrant of at least 1%;
       provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason
       of this paragraph (f) are not required to be made
       currently will be carried forward and made at the time
       and together with the next subsequent adjustment which,
       together with any adjustments so carried forward, would
       require an increase or decrease in the number of Shares
       purchasable upon the hypothetical exercise of this
       Warrant of 1% or more.  All calculations with respect to
       the number of Shares will be made to the nearest one-
       thousandth of a share and all calculations with respect
       to the Exercise Price will be to the nearest whole cent.
       No adjustment in the number of Shares purchasable upon
       the exercise of a Warrant will be made under paragraph
       (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 3 if the Company issues
       or distributes to the Holder the shares, rights, options,
       warrants, convertible or exchangeable securities,
       evidences of indebtedness, assets or other securities
       referred to in the applicable paragraph that the Holder
       would have been entitled to receive had this Warrant been
       exercised prior to the happening of such event on the
       record date with respect thereto (provided that, in any
       case in which the Holder would have been so entitled to
       receive a fractional interest in any such securities or
       assets, the Company may distribute to the Holder in lieu
       of such fractional interest cash in an amount equal to
       the fair value of such fractional interest as determined
       in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company).
       No adjustment in the number of Shares purchasable upon
       the exercise of this Warrant will be made on account of:
       (1) any issuance of shares of Common Stock, or of
       options, rights or warrants to purchase, or securities
       exchangeable for or convertible into, shares of Common
       Stock, in accordance with any plan for the benefit of the
       employees or directors of the Company that shall have
       been duly approved by the holders of Common Stock, (2)
       any issuance of shares of Common Stock in connection with
       a Company-sponsored plan for reinvestment of dividends or
       interest, or (3) any issuance of shares of Common Stock
       or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares
       of Common Stock pursuant to an underwritten public
       offering for a price per share of Common Stock in the
       case of an issuance of shares of Common Stock, or for a
       price per share of Common Stock initially deliverable
       upon conversion or exchange of such securities, that is
       equal to or greater than 95% of the Closing Price per
       share of Common Stock on the date the offering,
       conversion, or exchange price of such additional shares
       of Common Stock is first fixed.  No adjustment in the
       number of Shares will be made for a change in the par
       value of the shares of Common Stock.
       
            (g)  Whenever the number of Shares purchasable upon
       the exercise of each Warrant is adjusted as herein
       provided, the Exercise Price will be adjusted by
       multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately
       prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of
       which will be the number of Shares purchasable upon the
       exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such
       adjustment, and the denominator of which will be the
       number of Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.
     
            (h) For the purpose of this Section 3, the term
       "Common Stock" means (i) the class of shares designated
       as the Common Stock of the Company as of the date of this
       Warrant, (ii) all shares of any class or classes (however
       designated) of the Company, now or hereafter authorized,
       the holders of which have the right, without limitation
       as to amount, either to all or to a part of the balance
       of current dividends and liquidating dividends after the
       payment of dividends and distributions on any shares
       entitled to preference, and the holders of which are
       ordinarily entitled to vote generally in the election of
       directors of the Company, or (iii) any other class of
       shares resulting from successive changes or
       reclassifications of such shares consisting solely of
       changes in par value, or from par value to no par value,
       or from no par value to par value.  In the event that at
       any time, as a result of an adjustment made pursuant to
       Section 3(a), this Warrant becomes exercisable to
       purchase Shares other than shares of Common Stock,
       thereafter the number of such other shares so purchasable
       upon exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price
       payable in respect of such other shares upon the exercise
       of this Warrant will be subject to adjustment from time
       to time in a manner and on terms as nearly equivalent as
       practicable to the provisions with respect to the Shares
       and the Exercise Price contained in this Section 3.
     
            (i) Upon the expiration of any rights, options,
       warrants or conversion or exchange privileges, if any
       thereof have not been exercised, the Exercise Price and
       the number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of
       this Warrant will, upon such expiration, be readjusted
       and will thereafter be such as it would have been had it
       been originally adjusted (or had the original adjustment
       not been required, as the case may be) as if (i) the only
       shares of Common Stock so issued were the shares of
       Common Stock, if any, actually issued or sold upon the
       exercise of such rights, options, warrants or conversion
       or exchange rights and (ii) such shares of Common Stock,
       if any, were issued or sold for the consideration
       actually received by the Company upon such exercise,
       conversion or exchange plus the aggregate consideration,
       if any, actually received by the Company for the
       issuance, sale or grant of all such rights, options,
       warrants or conversion or exchange rights whether or not
       exercised; provided, however, that no such readjustment
       will have the effect of increasing the Exercise Price or
       decreasing the number of Shares purchasable upon the
       exercise of this Warrant by an amount in excess of the
       amount of the adjustment initially made in respect of the
       issuance, sale or grant of such rights, options, warrants
       or conversion or exchange privileges.
     
            (j) In case of any consolidation of the Company with
       or merger of the Company into another corporation or in
       case of any sale, transfer or lease to another
       corporation of all or substantially all the property of
       the Company, the Company or such successor or purchasing
       corporation, as the case may be, will execute an
       agreement providing that the Holder will have the right
       thereafter, upon payment of an amount equal to the amount
       payable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately
       prior thereto, to purchase upon exercise of this Warrant
       the kind and amount of securities or property that it
       would have owned or have been entitled to receive after
       giving effect to such consolidation, merger, sale,
       transfer or lease on account of the Shares that would
       have been purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant
       had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto
       (provided that, to the extent that the Holder would have
       been so entitled to receive cash on account of such
       Shares, the Holder may elect in connection with the
       exercise of this Warrant in accordance with Section 1 to
       reduce the amount of cash that it would be entitled to
       receive upon such exercise in exchange for a
       corresponding reduction in the amount payable upon such
       exercise).  Such agreement will provide for adjustments
       that will be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable
       to the adjustments provided for in this Section 3.  The
       provisions of this Section 3(j) will similarly apply to
       successive consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or
       leases.

     4.     Notices.

          (a)    Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price or the
kind and number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant in accordance with Section 3 hereof, then, and in each
such case, the Company, within thirty (30) days thereafter, shall
give written notice thereof to the Holder at the address of such
Holder as shown on the books of the Company which notice shall
state the Exercise Price as adjusted and, if applicable, the kind
and number of Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this
Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of
calculation of each.
          
          (b)    Any written notice by the Company required or
permitted hereunder shall be given by hand delivery or first
class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Holder at the
address shown on the books of the Company for the Holder.

     5.     Transfer of Warrant  Except in accordance with the
conditions contained in Section 6 hereof, this Warrant and all
rights hereunder are not transferable.  In order to effect any
transfer of all or a portion of this warrant or the Shares, the
transferor shall deliver a completed and duly executed Notice of
Transfer (attached hereto as Exhibit B).

     6.     Condition of Exercise or Transfer of Warrant.

          (a)    Unless exercised pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Act which includes the Shares so
exercised, it shall be a condition to any exercise or transfer of
this Warrant that the Company shall have received, at the time of
such exercise or transfer, a representation in writing from the
recipient or transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
A-1 or Exhibit B-1, respectively, that the Shares being issued
upon exercise, or this Warrant (or portion hereof) transferred,
as the case may be, are being acquired for investment and not
with a view to any sale or distribution thereof.

          (b)    It shall be a further condition to any transfer
of this Warrant, or of any or all of the Shares issued upon
exercise of this Warrant, other than a transfer registered under
the Act, that the Holder shall have given written notice to the
Company which shall describe the manner and circumstances of the
proposed transfer and be accompanied by a written opinion of
Holder's legal counsel or a "no-action" letter reasonably
satisfactory to the Company stating that such transfer is exempt
from the registration requirements of the Act and applicable
state securities laws.

          (c)    Each certificate evidencing the Shares issued
upon exercise of this Warrant, or transfer of such shares (other
than a transfer registered under the Act or any subsequent
transfer of shares so registered) shall be stamped or imprinted
with a legend substantially in the following form:

     THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE BEEN
     ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR FOR
     RESALE IN CONNECTION WITH, ANY DISTRIBUTION THEREOF, AND
     HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
     AS AMENDED (THE "ACT") OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  SUCH
     SECURITIES MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR
     HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN
     OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS
     COUNSEL THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE
     ACT.

     Subject to this Section 6, the Company may instruct its
transfer agent not to register the transfer of all or a part of
this Warrant, or any of the Shares, unless one of the conditions
specified in the above legend is satisfied.

     7.     Removal of Legend.  Upon request of a holder of a
certificate with the legend referred to in Section 6 hereof, the
Company shall issue to such holder a new certificate therefor
free of any transfer legend, if, with such request, the Company
shall have received either an opinion of counsel or a "no-action"
letter referred to in Section 6(b) of this Warrant to the effect
that any transfer by such holder of the shares evidenced by such
certificate will not violate the Act and applicable state
securities laws.

      8.    Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Common
Stock will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder,
but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a
cash payment therefor upon the basis of the Exercise Price then
in effect.

      9.    Representations and Warranties of the Company.  The
Company represents and warrants to the Holder as follows:

          (a)    This Warrant has been duly authorized and
executed by the Company and is a valid and binding obligation of
the Company enforceable in accordance with its terms;

          (b)    The Shares have been duly authorized and
reserved for issuance by the Company and, when issued in
accordance with the terms hereof, will be validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable;

          (c)    The rights, preferences, privileges and
restrictions granted to or imposed upon the Shares and the
holders thereof are as set forth in the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation, a true and complete copy of which has been
delivered to the original Holder of this Warrant; and

          (d)    The execution and delivery of this Warrant are
not, and the issuance of the Shares upon exercise of this warrant
in accordance with the terms hereof will not be, inconsistent
with the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as
amended.

     10.    Representations and Warranties by the Holder.  The
Holder represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

          (a)    This Warrant is being acquired for its own
account, for investment and not with a view to, or for resale in
connection with, any distribution or public offering thereof
within the meaning of the Act.  Upon exercise of this Warrant,
the Holder shall, if so requested by the Company, confirm in
writing, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that
the Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are being
acquired for investment and not with a view toward distribution
or resale.
          
          (b)    The Holder understands that the Warrant and the
Shares have not been registered under the Act by reason of their
issuance in a transaction exempt from the registration and pros
pectus delivery requirements of the Act pursuant to Section 4(2)
thereof, and that they must be held by the Holder indefinitely,
and that the Holder must therefore bear the economic risk of such
investment indefinitely, unless a subsequent disposition thereof
is registered under the Act or is exempted from such
registration.  The Holder further understands that the Shares
have not been qualified under the California Securities Law of
1968 (the "California Law") by reason of their issuance in a
transaction exempt from the qualification requirements of the
California Law pursuant to Section 25102(f) thereof, which
exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature
of the Holder's investment intent expressed above.

          (c)    The Holder has such knowledge and experience in
financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of the purchase of this Warrant and the
Shares purchasable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant and of
protecting its interests in connection therewith.

          (d)    The Holder is able to bear the economic risk of
the purchase of the Shares pursuant to the terms of this Warrant.

     11.    Rights of Stockholders.  No holder of this Warrant
shall be entitled, as a Warrant holder, to vote or receive
dividends or be deemed the holder of Common Stock or any other
securities of the Company which may at any time be issuable on
the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor shall anything contained
herein be construed to confer upon the holder of this Warrant, as
such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any
right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter
submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to give or
withhold consent to any corporate action (whether upon any
recapitalization, issuance of stock, reclassification of stock,
change of par value, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or
otherwise) or to receive notice of meetings, or to receive
dividends or subscription rights or otherwise until the Warrant
shall have been exercised and the Shares purchasable upon the
exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided
herein.

     12.    Expiration of Warrant.  This Warrant shall expire and
shall no longer be exercisable as of the date of the earliest of
the following to occur:

          (a)    March 20, 2003; and

          (b)    the closing of a firm commitment underwritten
public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the offer
and sale of Common Stock for the account of the Company to the
public with gross proceeds to the Company (prior to underwriter
commissions and offering expenses) per share of not less than $8
(the "Public Offering"), subject to equitable adjustment in the
event of any dividend paid in shares of Common Stock, any
subdivision or combination of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock or any similar transaction.

     13.  Certain Registration Rights for Shares.
     
       (a) If the Company proposes to file a registration
statement (other than in connection with an exchange offer, an
offering made solely to employees of the Company or a
registration statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form
to such forms) under the Act with respect to an offering of any
securities issued or to be issued by the Company (whether or not
for its own account), the Company will give written notice of the
proposed registration at least 20 business days prior to the
filing of a registration statement under the Act with respect
thereto to the Holder.  The Holder will have the right to request
that all or any part of its Shares, whether issued or issuable
(such Shares being referred to herein as "Registrable
Securities") be included in such registration by giving written
notice to the Company within 10 business days after the giving of
such notice by the Company.  Subject to the next following
sentence, the Company will include such Registrable Securities in
such registration in accordance with such request and on the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.  If the
registration is an underwritten offering and the managing
underwriters of such offering deliver an opinion to the Holder
that the total amount of securities which the Holder, the Company
and any other person or entity having rights to participate in
such offering is such as to materially and adversely affect the
success of such offering, then the amount of securities to be
offered for the account of the Holder will be reduced (to zero,
if necessary) on the same basis as any other person or entity
seeking to exercise so-called "piggyback" registration rights in
connection therewith or, if there are no such other persons or
entities, to the maximum number of Registrable Securities, if
any, as can be included therein without materially and adversely
affecting the success of such offering.
       (b) Registrable Securities proposed to be registered for
sale pursuant to an underwritten offering for the account of the
Holder will be sold to prospective underwriters selected or
approved by the Company and on the terms and subject to the
conditions of one or more underwriting agreements negotiated
between the Company and such underwriters.  The Company may
withdraw any registration statement which covers Registrable
Securities (a "Registration Statement") at any time before it
becomes effective, or postpone the offering of securities,
without obligation or liability to the Holder.  Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein contained, Registrable Securities
need not be included in any Registration Statement pursuant to
Section 13(a) if (i) registration under the Act is not required
for public distribution of such Registrable Securities in the
manner that the Holder seeks to distribute such Registrable
Securities or (ii) such Registrable Securities may be sold
pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act.
     
       (c) The Holder will, if so requested by the managing
underwriters in an underwritten public offering, not effect any
public sale or distribution of securities of the Company of the
same class as the securities to be included in such registration,
including a sale pursuant to Rules 144 or 144A under the Act
(except as part of such offering), during the 20 calendar day
period prior to, and for a period of 180 days beginning on, the
closing date of such offering. Holder further agrees to execute
any agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the
underwriters in connection with the Public Offering.
     
       (d) In connection with its obligations under
Section 13(a), the Company will as expeditiously as reasonably
practicable:
     
            (i) before filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") a Registration Statement or any
amendments or supplements thereto, furnish to the Holder, if its
Registrable Securities are covered by such Registration Statement
(as such, the "Selling Shareholder"), copies of all such
documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject
to the reasonable review of the Holder;
     
            (ii)prepare and file with the Commission a
Registration Statement and such amendments and supplements
thereto as may be required by the Commission's rules and
regulations; and comply with the provisions of the Act with
respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance
with the intended methods of disposition by the sellers thereof
set forth in the related prospectus (the "Prospectus");
     
            (iii)    notify the Selling Shareholder promptly:
     
            (A) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop
order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement
or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose,
     
            (B) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification
of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the
initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, and
     
            (C) of the existence of any fact which results in
the Registration Statement or the Prospectus containing an untrue
statement of a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;
     
            (iv)make every reasonable effort to obtain the
withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement at the earliest practicable time (unless
such order has been issued as the result of any action, omission
or status of the Selling Shareholder);
     
            (v) furnish to the Selling Shareholder, without
charge, at least one copy of the Registration Statement and any
post-effective amendment thereto;
     
            (vi)deliver to the Selling Shareholder, without
charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including each
preliminary prospectus) and any amendment or supplement thereto
as the Selling Shareholder may reasonably request; and
     
            (vii)    cooperate with the Selling Shareholder to
facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates
representing Registrable Securities to be sold.
     
            (e) As a condition of the inclusion of Registrable
Securities in a registration, the Company may require the Selling
Shareholder to furnish to the Company such information regarding
the proposed distribution of its securities as the Company may
from time to time reasonably request in writing.
     
            (f) In connection with any Registration Statement
prepared and filed under Section 13(a), the Selling Shareholder
will bear all costs and expenses incurred by them directly and
the underwriting discounts and commissions relating to its
Registrable Securities included in the related offering.  The
Company will pay all other costs and expenses of registration.
     
            (g) The Company will indemnify and hold harmless the
Selling Shareholder, its officers, directors, employees and
agents and each person who controls the Selling Shareholder
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act from and against all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including
reasonable costs of investigation and legal expenses) arising out
of or based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Registration
Statement (or any prospectus or prospectus supplement relating
thereto), arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses arising out of or are based upon any such
untrue statement or omission or allegation thereof based upon
information furnished in writing to the Company by the Selling
Shareholder or on the Selling Shareholder's behalf expressly for
use therein; provided, however, that in connection with any non-
underwritten offering the Company will not be liable to the
Selling Shareholder to the extent that any such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses arise out of or are based upon
an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus if either (i)
(A) the Selling Shareholder failed to send or deliver a copy of
the Prospectus with or prior to the deliver of written
confirmation of the sale by the Selling Shareholder of a
Registrable Security to the person asserting the claim from which
such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arise and
(B) the Prospectus would have completely corrected such untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or such omission or alleged
omission or (ii) such untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement, omission or alleged omission is completely corrected
in an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus and, having
previously been furnished by or on behalf of the Company with
copies of the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented, the
Selling Shareholder thereafter fails to deliver such Prospectus
as so amended or supplemented prior to or concurrently with the
sale of a Registrable Security to the person asserting the claim
from which such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
arise.  The Selling Shareholder will indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, its directors and officer, any agent of the Company,
and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Act to the same extent as the
foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Selling Shareholder,
but only with respect to information relating to the Selling
Shareholder furnished in writing by the Selling Shareholder or on
the Selling Shareholder's behalf expressly for use in any
Registration Statement (or any prospectus supplement relating
thereto).
     
       (h) If the indemnification provided for in Section 13(g)
is unavailable to an indemnified party (other than by reason of
exceptions provided therein) in respect of any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then the
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified
party, will contribute to the amount paid or payable by the
indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses in such proportion as if appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of the indemnified party on the one
hand and of the indemnifying party on the other hand in
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in
such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as
any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative fault
of the Company on the one hand and of the Selling Shareholder on
the other hand will be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether the untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a
material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact related to information supplied by the Company or
by the Selling Shareholder and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such statement or omission.  The Company and the Selling
Shareholder acknowledge that it would not be just and equitable
if contribution pursuant to this Section 13(h) were determined by
pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does
not take into account the equitable considerations referred to
above.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within
the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) will be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation.
     
     (i)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
contained, if this Warrant has been exercised prior to
termination of this Warrant in accordance with Section 12, the
provisions of this Section 13 shall survive with respect to the
Registrable Securities.

     14.    Miscellaneous.

          (a)    The headings in this Warrant are for purposes of
reference only, and shall not limit or otherwise affect any of
the terms hereof.

          (b)    The terms of this Warrant shall be binding upon
and shall inure to the benefit of any successors or assigns of
the Company and of the holder or holders hereof and of the Shares
issued or issuable upon the exercise hereof.

          (c)    This Warrant and the other documents delivered
pursuant hereto constitute the full and entire understanding and
agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof
and thereof.

          (d)    The Company shall not, by amendment of its
Certificate of Incorporation, or through any other means,
directly or indirectly, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
performance of any of the terms of this Warrant and shall at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms
and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of this
Warrant against impairment.

          (e)    Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or
destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably
satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of
any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such
Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver to
the holder of record, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like date
and tenor.

          (f)    This Warrant and any provision hereof may be
amended, waived or terminated only by an instrument in writing
signed by the Company and the Holders.

          (g)    Receipt of this Warrant by the Holder hereof
shall constitute acceptance of and agreement to the foregoing
terms and conditions.

                 OF THE COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT ISSUED
                 ON March ___, 1998

AMOUNT      :    _______________ SHARES

DATE        :    ___________________, ______

In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities,
I, the Purchaser, represent to the Seller and to the Company the
following:

     (a)    I am aware of the Company's business affairs and
financial condition, and have acquired sufficient information
about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision
to acquire the Securities.  I am purchasing these Securities for
my own account for investment purposes only and not with a view
to, or for the resale in connection with, any "distribution"
thereof for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act").

     (b)    I understand that the Securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific
exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other
things, the bona fide nature of my investment intent as expressed
herein.  In this connection, I understand that, in the view of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the statutory
basis for such exemption may be unavailable if my representation
was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold these
Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under
tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or
decrease in the market price of the Securities, or for a period
of one year or any other fixed period in the future.

     (c)    I further understand that the Securities must be held
indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities
Act or unless an exemption from registration is otherwise avail
able.  Moreover, I understand that the Company is under no
obligation to register the Securities.  In addition, I understand
that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted
with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities
unless they are registered or such registration is not required
in the opinion of counsel for the Company.

     (d)    I am familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promul
gated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits
limited public resale of "restricted securities" acquired,
directly or indirectly, from the issuer thereof, in a non-public
offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.
     The Securities may be resold in certain limited
circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which
requires among other things: (1) the availability of certain
public information about the Company, (2) the resale occurring
not less than one year after the party has purchased, and made
full payment for, within the meaning of Rule 144, the securities
to be sold; and, in the case of an affiliate, or of a
non-affiliate who has held the securities less than two years,
(3) the sale being made through a broker in an unsolicited
"broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a market
maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934) and the amount of securities being sold during any three
month period not exceeding the specified limitations stated
therein, if applicable.

     (e)    I hereby accept and agree to be bound by the
provisions of the Warrant as though I were a party thereto.

     (f)    I further understand that in the event all of the
applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied,
registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation
A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and
that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive,
the Staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons
proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a
registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will
have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an

               INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT

PURCHASER   :

TRANSFEROR  :

COMPANY     :    MOBINETIX SYSTEMS, INC.

SECURITY    :    COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
                 ORIGINALLY ISSUED ON MARCH ___, 1998

AMOUNT      :    ________________ SHARES

DATE        :    _______________, ____


In connection with the purchase of the above-listed Securities,
I, the Purchaser, represent to the Transferor and to the Company
the following:

     (a)    I am aware of the Company's business affairs and
financial condition, and have acquired sufficient information
about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision
to acquire the Securities.  I am purchasing these Securities for
my own account for investment purposes only and not with a view
to, or for the resale in connection with, any "distribution"
thereof for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act").

     (b)    I understand that the Securities have not been
registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific
exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other
things, the bona fide nature of my investment intent as expressed
herein.  In this connection, I understand that, in the view of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the statutory
basis for such exemption may be unavailable if my representation
was predicated solely upon a present intention to hold these
Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under
tax statutes, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or
decrease in the market price of the Securities, or for a period
of one year or any other fixed period in the future.

     (c)    I further understand that the Securities must be held
indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities
Act or unless an exemption from registration is otherwise avail
able.  Moreover, I understand that the Company is under no
obligation to register the Securities.  In addition, I understand
that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be imprinted
with a legend which prohibits the transfer of the Securities
unless they are registered or such registration is not required
in the opinion of counsel for the Company.

     (d)    I am familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promul
gated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits
limited public resale of "restricted securities" acquired,
directly or indirectly, from the issuer thereof, in a non-public
offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

     The Securities may be resold in certain limited
circumstances subject to the provisions of Rule 144, which
requires among other things: (1) the availability of certain
public information about the Company, (2) the resale occurring
not less than one year after the party has purchased, and made
full payment for, within the meaning of Rule 144, the securities
to be sold; and, in the case of an affiliate, or of a
non-affiliate who has held the securities less than two years,
(3) the sale being made through a broker in an unsolicited
"broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with a market
maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934) and the amount of securities being sold during any three
month period not exceeding the specified limitations stated
therein, if applicable.

     (e)    I hereby accept and agree to be bound by the
provisions of the Warrant as though I were a party thereto.

     (f)    I further understand that in the event all of the
applicable requirements of Rule 144 is not satisfied,
registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation
A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and
that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive,
the Staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons
proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a
registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will
have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an
exemption from registration is available for such offers or
sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who
participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.
                                     
                                             (Signature)

                                    By:

                                    Title:
