1.2. Subscription Plan
When you first set up StockBoss on your PageWriter/Timeport, you will normally
be given a two-week free trial period. After this trial period, StockBoss services
are offered to subscribers for a monthly subscription fee. The current subscription
fee structure can be found at

1.3. Overview
StockBoss is a powerful financial interactive application that utilizes the graphic
capabilities of the Motorola PageWriter 2000X and Timeport pagers to provide
the end user with access to their stock portfolio and market information. In
addition, StockBoss Interactive allows the user to visually graph historical stock
data directly on their pager in order to portray a complete market status.
Based upon the unit’s two-way communications capabilities, StockBoss provides
sophisticated navigation of financial data, plus allows for on-demand requests for
new financial information.
