`
`New Option for Teenagers Passionate About Instant
`Messaging
`
`
`By WARREN BUCKLEITNER
`Published: October 4, 2007
`
`As most parents of teenagers fully understand, a son or daughter’s
`instant messaging — not to be confused with text messaging on a
`cellphone — can tie up the home computer for hours at a stretch. The
`pocket-sized Zipit Wireless Messenger is a $150 solution, with no
`monthly fees.

`
`The Z2, as the company wants the
`youth market to call it, is a second
`version of the device, designed to sniff out Wi-Fi hotspots
`so teenagers can I.M. their thumbs to death on their AOL,
`Yahoo or MSN accounts. Encrypted networks work, if the
`password is known.
`
`
`
`The device, which will be available later this month from
`zipitwireless.com, doubles as a picture viewer and MP3
`player, and files can be stored on mini-SD memory cards.
`
`Designed by former military contractors, the clamshell device has rechargeable batteries
`and a color screen. The small keyboard’s raised rubbery keys are backlighted, enabling
`I.M.-ing in a darkened theater or under the covers — unless a parent figures out the
`parental controls and limits access hours. WARREN BUCKLEITNER
