Las Vegas, NV - March 8, 2004 --- Solid Innovation®, Inc., a leading provider of mobile route accounting solutions to the Direct Store Delivery (DSD) and wholesale distribution industry, today announced, at the ASD/AMD Gift Show, the launch of Solid Route Accounting - Integration Edition, a highly affordable new product that integrates Intuit QuickBooks Pro invoicing into an array of handheld PalmSource Palm OS devices. Solid Route Accounting - Integration Edition was designed for companies or individuals to easily integrate functions from QuickBooks 2003 or higher with mobile handheld Palm OS devices to be able to invoice, update customer records, and review pricing from virtually anywhere. By installing Solid Route Accounting - Integration Edition on any Palm OS version 4 or higher device, users are able to synchronize with their back-office QuickBooks host to perform accurate, on-the-spot product lookup, inventory synchronization, and produce professional looking invoices.
