MobiTV Invites 3GSM Attendees to See Live Demonstrations of Broadcast-Quality Television Over Mobile Wimax

BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 12 /PRNewswire/ --
When: February 12-15th, 2007

Where: 3GSM World Congress 2007, Barcelona, Spain -- Fira de Barcelona

-- Montjuic; Hall 1, Booth C49, WiMAX Ecosystem Partner Booth
-- Hall 4, IMA Pavilion, Runcom Booth

Who: MobiTV, the global leader in mobile and broadband TV and music
services.

What: MobiTV will be offering 3GSM attendees demonstrations of the
industry's first seamless multicast and unicast television
solution for Mobile WiMAX. MobiTV recently demoed a slight
variation of this mobile WiMAX integration at CES in January.
This revolutionary demonstration enables operators to offer
premium mobile television over a two-way IEEE 802.16e network,
protect content rights and service revenues, all while providing a
true TV experience with high-quality, multicast and unicast
streaming at 30 frames per second.

"This demonstration proves that the Mobile WiMAX standard is very
well-suited to support the long-term evolution of wireless
networks in the face of rapidly growing demand for television
services," said Kay Johansson, CTO for MobiTV. "If and when any
area of the network becomes congested, redundant delivery could be
combined by multicasting popular channels."
