Celio Wins Health Care Staffing Firm

Salt Lake City, Utah-based startup Celio Corp. revealed today that health care staffing firm Medfinders Inc. has assigned Celio's flagship REDFLY smartphone terminals to many of its mobile employees. Celio said Medfinders recently purchased more than 20 REDFLYs and distributed them to on-the-go executives and in-home health care providers. Financial impact of the win was not disclosed. Based in Arlington, Texas, Medfinders maintains a network of 100 offices and 25 homecare locations across the country. Celio markets REDFLY as a "mobile companion" device and as a cost-saving alternative to laptops. The device features a larger screen than a mobile phone, a full keyboard and has no hard drive.
