Intellistream Launches Single Box Interactive Mobile Video Application Development, Deployment and Delivery Platform

LONDON, December 11/PRNewswire/ --

- Simplified Delivery of Premium Content, CCTV to Mobile, Mobile Video
Dating, Mobile Gambling and Interactive TV Services With Reduced Development
Costs

In a move that makes interactive 3G video services a practical
proposition for security, gaming and logistics companies as well as content
owners and network operators, Intellistream today announces that its
Unistream(TM) 3G video content and interactive media platform is now
available as a single box licensed appliance to complement its established
hosted video content management and delivery platform.

With full remote monitoring and support capability, the Unistream
appliance provides a complete set of tools for managing and delivering
interactive content to any mobile device that is capable of making and
receiving standard 3G video calls. The Unistream appliance comprises a single
standard 1U appliance. Unistream applications are network operator
independent, written using standard XML and java techniques and will work on
any 3G video phone without the installation of software. This eliminates the
cost burden of developing and maintaining application variants for different
handsets and networks. These costs have historically been a major barrier to
application deployment for many developers and content owners.

Jim Beagle, CEO of Intellistream said: "Our customers with applications
such as CCTV and mobile gambling require complete control over their
applications for security and audit purposes. The new Unistream appliance has
been developed so that we are able to meet the need for customers to own and
control their hardware. To ensure that we can still deliver the same level of
service and availability as our hosted Unistream service we have equipped the
Unistream appliance with a full remote monitoring and support capability to
enable the Intellistream team to rapidly fix any issues.

The Unistream appliance requires only the addition of interconnects to
the phone networks to begin serving both interactive video and standard IVR
applications. With remote support and monitoring of the Unistream server from
the Intellistream team customers can be confident of rapid development and
stable deployment of their applications.

About Unistream

Unistream is a standards based communications platform which
intelligently delivers content across a wide range of mobile devices, it can
serve full motion interactive 3G video while also handling more traditional
technologies such as voice only IVR applications.

Being standards based and requiring no software to be installed on
handsets ensures that Unistream applications can be deployed immediately to
the widest possible range of handsets irrespective of manufacturer or network
operator. Unistream automatically delivers the content in the most suitable
native format ensuring that users always enjoy the best possible experience.
With no software on the handset processing commands interactive Video and
Voice capabilities are faster and more responsive, enabling more
sophisticated and interactive applications than has been previously feasible.

Multiple billing and access models are supported, allowing content
holders to always use the most appropriate mix. Application creation,
deployment and control are all managed through the same set of Unistream
interfaces and with applications being written in Java and XML customers can
cost effectively integrate mobile content development into existing work
flows. An image illustrating the Unistream platform can be found at:
