Centura's expertise lies in providing Global 2000 companies with the ability to extend business information systems to wireless, mobile devices and smart embedded systems, enabling secure real-time m-Business. Centura will use the new equity facility to gain market share in the mobile and embedded markets by funding cash-based acquisitions, as well as expanding and enhancing market and product development opportunities.

"It is extremely gratifying that Majjes Limited has shown support for both our vision and our ability to execute it," said Scott Broomfield, Centura chief executive officer and president. "The additional financing will assist us in continuing to solidify our leadership position in mobilizing the enterprise via our secure real-time wireless e-Business solutions and to expand strategic partnerships with industry leaders such as, Palm, Symbol, Merant and Intermec."
