Good Technology announces wireless e-mail service on Blackberry

The company is backed by Kleiner Perkins and Benchmark Capital, whose partners John Doerr and Bruce Dunlevie are on the board. Good had raised $6 million in its first round raised in May 2000 and $53.5 million in several tranches between November 2000 and July 2001, none of which were disclosed at the time.

Good Technology's wireless e-mail service functions on Blackberry devices as well as Good Technology's own G-100 devices, which the company plans to release later this summer.
