Video Without Boundaries, Inc. Inks Deal With Compass Marketing for Broad Retail Representation

Compass to Provide Exposure to Largest Mass Retail Outlets

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., Aug. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Video Without Boundaries, Inc. , a leading provider of interactive, media-convergent home entertainment devices, today announced that it has signed a representation agreement with Compass Marketing, Inc., a respected retail go-to-market firm based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Compass Marketing is expected to expand VWB's retail distribution with top-name retail accounts in a wide variety of segments, from upscale department stores to mass market retailers.

Compass Marketing has a successful track record of launching significant brands and products at premier retailers in the mass merchant, consumer electronics, and office superstore channels including Best Buy, Target and Sears/Kmart.

"The staff at Compass Marketing is highly qualified to bring the VWB MediaREADY(TM) line to a wide range of distribution channels and retail chains," said Jeffrey Harrell, CEO and President of VWB. "Their experience will further diversify our growing network of professional retail representatives."

"Video Without Boundaries' MediaREADY products are defining the broadband media device category through exceptional innovation, versatility and value," said Jon Mogck, VP of Business Development & Marketing of Compass Marketing. "The advanced engineering of MediaREADY products gives customers a simple and rewarding way to connect all their digital entertainment choices. We believe retailers and customers alike are looking for this kind of approach."

VWB's MediaREADY broadband media products, led by the flagship MediaREADY 5000 advanced digital media center, are expected to be of significant interest to retailers in the consumer electronics, computer, and mass merchant channels. The product line not only supports a wealth of multimedia playback choices, but also connects people simply to virtually every type of digital entertainment device in the home.

With MediaREADY set-top products, users can watch TV, record video to the hard drive or to DVD, stream multimedia directly from the Internet, surf the World Wide Web, read or send email, enjoy karaoke, listen to digital audio, and burn or manage a music collection.

In addition to DVD, CD, MP3 and MPEG-1/2/4 recording and playback, MediaREADY devices, about the same size as a conventional DVD player, connect the home TV to the Internet and to in-home networks. The line also includes the MediaREADY Flyboy, a portable multimedia player that records and plays back up to 40 hours of video, 100,000 digital pictures, or 370 hours of music on its 20 GB hard drive. The unit's 3.5-inch LCD screen and built-in speakers provide excellent playback quality while the internal USB 2.0 capability enables users to receive files from any MediaREADY set-top device or PC.
