ITEM 4. CHANGES IN THE REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT
On September 3, 1998, Datalink Systems Corporation (the "Company") engaged
BDO Seidman LLP as its independent accountants to audit the Company's financial
statements. On July 17, 1998, the Company received notification from
Pricewaterhouse Coopers LLP ("PwC"), who had served as the Company's independent
accountants, that its client-audit relationship with the Company had ceased.
Information concerning the notification from PwC has previously been reported in
a Report on Form 8-K dated July 17, 1998.
Neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf consulted with BDO
Seidman LLP with regard to the application of accounting principles to a
specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion
that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements. In addition,
neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf consulted with BDO
Seidman LLP with regard to any disagreement or event identified in the Company's
prior Report on Form 8-K dated July 17, 1998.
The Company has requested that BDO Seidman LLP review the disclosures
contained herein and, if it desires to do so, provide the Company with a letter
addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission containing any new
information, clarification of the Company's expressions of its views, or the
respects in which it does not agree with the statements made herein. However,
BDO Seidman LLP has not provided the Company with such a letter.
