iPAQ users can now automatically access SOHU.com's homepage by simply pressing the Hot Key function on iPAQ computer keyboards. This new default option gives iPAQ users a more convenient way of accessing SOHU's products and services. This new marketing arrangement reaffirms SOHU.com's position as a leading brand presence in China's Internet industry.

According to Compaq Computer Corporation, "iPAQ signals a major point of departure from the traditional PC for Compaq and the industry. It is at the forefront of the post-PC era - the type of simple product companies require for an Internet-based computing model."

Compaq Computer Corporation, a Fortune Global 100 company, is the largest supplier of computing systems in the world. Compaq products and services are sold in more than 200 countries, and its new SOHU.com linked iPAQ computers will be sold exclusively in Greater China.
