  on behalf of the INTEGRAL GRB team,  report:

  The short hard GRB 060429 (Hurley et al., GCN 5039) was also
  detected by Suzaku-WAM and RHESSI, resulting in a smaller error box.


  The refined 3 sigma error box is:
  -----------------------
  RA, deg   Dec, deg (J2000)
  -----------------------
  Center:
    115.5126  -24.9525

  Corners:
    115.2478 -25.1930
    115.4979 -25.1205
    115.7763 -24.7102
    115.5271 -24.7844
  --------------------

  The error box area is 267 sq. arcmin.

  This error box may be improved.

  As observed by Konus-Wind this burst had fluence
  6.29(-2.69,+0.64)x10^-6 erg/cm2,
  and the 16-ms peak flux measured from T0+0.012 s
  1.07(-0.47,+0.16)x10^-4  erg/cm2/s
  (both in the 20 keV - 5 MeV energy range).

  The spectrum integrated over the most intense part
  of the burst (from T0 to T0+0.064 s) is well
  fitted (in the 20 keV - 5 MeV range)
  by a power law with exponential cutoff model:
  dN/dE ~ E^(-alpha)*exp(-E*(2-alpha)/Ep)
  with alpha = 0.638 (-0.162, +0.141)
  and Ep = 1558 (-320, +416) keV (chi2 = 18.5/26 dof).
  The Konus-Wind trigger time T0=44389.712 s UT (12:19:49.712).

  All the quoted errors are at the 90% confidence level.
