            GEOWORKS RECEIVES NOTICE OF NASDAQ DELISTING AND APPEALS

EMERYVILLE, Calif., September 4, 2002 -- Geoworks Corporation (Nasdaq Smallcap:
GWRX) announced today that on August 29, 2002 it received notice from Nasdaq
that its securities would be delisted from the Nasdaq Smallcap Market on
September 6, 2002, primarily due to non-compliance with the minimum bid and
minimum net equity rules, unless the Company appealed this staff determination.
The Company filed an appeal on September 4, 2002. Although the Company will
propose a plan to Nasdaq that delays delisting, the Company continues to expect
that its securities will be delisted after the Panel hearing, which is
anticipated to take place within 30 to 45 days.
