Clio R.S. 200 EDC to Star in First Update to the Asphalt 8: Airborne Video Game

PARIS, November 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

    The first update to Asphalt 8: Airborne makes it the only game to feature Clio R.S.
200 EDC, the latest sports model to come out of the Renault Sport stable in 2013.

    Available at the App Store and soon via Google Play, the game's launch will coincide
with the organisation of a competition organised by Renault Sport, with a real Clio R.S.
200 EDC up for grabs.

    Following the success of the Alpine A110-50 in the game Asphalt 7: Heat, Renault Sport
and Gameloft - a leading global publisher of digital and social games - have worked
closely together to add Clio R.S. 200 EDC to the 47 high-performance cars present in the
latest game in the series.

    Clio R.S. 200 EDC is the latest model to have been developed by Renault Sport
Technologies. In addition to its outstanding performance credentials and versatility, it
incorporates a number of hi-tech enjoyment-enhancing features, such as steering
wheel-mounted paddle-shift gear changes, an R.S. Monitor 2.0 data acquisition system and
the R.S. Drive button to adapt the car to the way you want to drive (Normal - Sport -
Race).

    Renault Sport shares with Gameloft a spirit of community that brings together
sportscar and video game fans alike.

    An arcade game at the cutting-edge of technology

    Asphalt 8: Airborne, the latest game in the successful Gameloft series, enables
players to compete in arcade races like never before courtesy of a new, high-performance
physics engine and new game modes.

    Thanks to this update, fans of Clio R.S. 200 EDC will be able to pull off
breath-taking airborne feats, travelling through the air in a way that would be impossible
in real life.

    "For me, the most enjoyable aspect to this project was convincing Renault Sport to
include Clio R.S. 200 EDC in a game in which the car will spend the majority of its time
flying and gliding through the air, whereas Renault Sport's engineers are far more
renowned for their chassis and suspension design expertise!" notes Geoffrey Vion, Client &
Digital Marketing Manager.

    "We are delighted to be able to offer our fans and those of Renault a chance to drive
Clio R.S. 2000 EDC in Asphalt 8: Airborne. We are continuing to upgrade the series with an
increasingly comprehensive catalogue of cars and new, breath-taking game modes," adds
Gameloft's Alexandre Tan, VP Brand Partnerships.

    New Hi-Fi quality engine noises have similarly been incorporated by the Gameloft
developers to guarantee an even more realistic sound immersion.

    Multi-player function and phantom challenges

    Given that it would be rude not to share your passion for driving, the multi-player
mode allows up to eight people to compete against one another in the same race, or in
asynchronous challenges. The game also enables players to compare their best scores with
those of friends and drivers worldwide.

    Virtual world meets real life

    A source of inspiration for the Renault Sport Technologies teams, Asphalt 8: Airborne
will come alive in the form of a video entitled 'Challenge Us If You Can! #4'.

    The fourth in a series of viral videos produced by Renault Sport, it puts Clio R.S.
200 EDC at the heart of the action and illustrates the company's partnership with
Gameloft. An eclectic selection of drivers takes each other on in the Clio R.S. 200 EDC,
with numerous references to the video game itself.

    These drivers come from a number of very different backgrounds:

       
        - Charles Pic, F1 driver for Caterham F1 Team
        - Jean Ragnotti, legendary rally driver and Renault Sport ambassador
        - Nelson Panciatici, a product of the Formula Renault 3.5 feeder series
        - Margot Laffite, driver and journalist
        - Dmitri Mangiagalli, Gameloft designer responsible for the integration of Clio
          R.S. into Asphalt 8: Airborne
        - Marco Prince, actor and lead singer of the group FFF

    A ten-day competition offered throughout Europe will see one Asphalt 8: Airborne
player win a real Clio R.S. 200 EDC.

    The new Asphalt 8: Airborne update is downloadable for free on the App Store
[https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/asphalt-8-airborne/id610391947?mt=8 ] and soon on Google
Play.

available in Canada on November 8, 2013. Originally unveiled earlier
this fall at the Samsung Unpacked 2013 Episode 2 in Berlin, the GALAXY
Note 10.1 will arrive in Canada hot on the heels of the successful
launch of the GALAXY Note 3 and GALAXY Gear and just in time for the
holiday shopping season. Bringing the premium design and exceptional
product features of the GALAXY Note 3 to a tablet, the new GALAXY Note
10.1 balances productivity, power and aesthetics, allowing Canadians to
create and consume content from one device.

Division, Samsung Canada. "Not only is this device both fashionable and

product innovation and our commitment to providing a variety of
products that Canadians can choose from to help make their lives easier
and more enjoyable."

The new GALAXY Note 10.1 expands on the advanced productivity and
creativity leadership delivered by the original Samsung GALAXY Note
10.1 by introducing significant S Pen improvements such as Air Command,
Action Memo, Scrapbook and Pen Window. Additionally, the 2014 Edition
offers a 10.1-inch WQXGA TFT screen with a resolution of 2560x1600
pixel, an Exynos 8-core processor and 3GB RAM.

Notable benefits include:

        --  Use the S Pen:Enhanced S Pen features such as Air Command,
            Action Memo, Scrapbook and Pen Window that work together to
            provide quicker and better organization, expression of
            creativity and personalization. For more advanced note taking,

            write, organize and edit notes that sync with a Samsung account
            for access from multiple devices.

        --  Get more done: With Multi Window, users can run separate
            instances of the same application, and use an enhanced S Pen to
            drag and drop content from one window to another. The improved
            S Pen and S Note functionality includes updated features such
            as Action Memo, Scrapbook, Screen Write and S Finder.
        --  Keep it all in one spot: With new Scrapbook capabilities, users
            can easily indicate any interesting content with the S Pen and
            organize it into individualized scrapbooks, creating a log of
            discussion points for a future work conversation, a wish list
            for new clothes or a home redesign project.
        --  Stay protected: The new GALAXY Note 10.1 comes with enhanced
            privacy and security protection provided by Samsung KNOX. Users
            can activate Samsung KNOX with ease which allows them to run
            and store security-sensitive applications and data inside a
            protected execution environment called "container." The
            security inside the container is strengthened by system-level
            protection of Samsung KNOX against malware and phishing attacks
            as well as hacking attempts on physical devices when devices
            are stolen or lost. For instance, important personal pictures
            or video can be stored in the container with no worries of data
            leakage due to hacking.

MiiPC Delivering Worldwide This Week - Power to the Parents!

SAN MATEO, California, November 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

           The world's first family PC on Android set to redefine family computing

    MiiPC [http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2102024857/1909836057?tokenaa9d5c8 ], the
world's first family computer on Android, today announces that the hotly-anticipated
device is going out to Early Bird backers following a storm of success on Kickstarter that
saw MiiPC smash its goal in the first 24 hours of launch.

    MiiPC provides an easy way for parents to set online boundaries for their children and
let them have a safe online experience playing games, watching videos or just browsing the
web, as you would with any PC but with additional functionality. The device is paired with
a mobile app for iOS and Android that gives parents access to these features while on the
go; meaning that busy parents can monitor and refine the real-time online activities of
their kids whether at work, at a supermarket or on their way home. Parents can also use
any major browser to log in to the MiiPC Parental Web Portal to access the same parental
control features.

    Young Song, Founder of MiiPC, explains: "The idea behind MiiPC came from my experience
of being a father - I want my two children to be able to learn and have fun online, but I
also need to make sure that they're safe. The Internet opens up all sorts of information
and possibilities but it also poses a significant challenge for parents in its
addictiveness, and MiiPC helps monitor the time your kids spend on different tasks. We
couldn't be more excited about the first batch of MiiPCs finding their new homes, to get
parents and kids alike making the most of the online experience."

    Parents can even set up multiple user accounts for each of their family members,
giving each child access to different apps and games and with different time restrictions.
This means that parents can monitor the time each child is spending online as well as
their use of apps in real time.

    Richard Sah, Chief Product Officer explains: "MiiPC is easy to use from the very
start, and we've worked hard to create features that enrich your MiiPC experience. We
carefully scrutinize the apps to make sure they are purposeful and child-friendly and have
even hand-picked and categorized over 500 web apps and Android applications that are ready
to access and download, saving you time browsing through an app store looking for relevant
apps. MiiPC provides a flexible solution for parents to set safe boundaries for kids of
all different ages with application management, a multi-user interface and remote parental
control features, making sure you can monitor their activity while your kids have fun."

    Specifications

    MiiPC comes with an HDMI connection and three USB ports, so it can be used with HDMI
monitors and most HDTVs - providing a true keyboard and mouse experience. The device runs
on top of Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean) leveraging the ever-growing Android application
ecosystem. To complete the desktop computing experience MiiPC comes with pre-bundled
Android apps and access to a Web App Center with over 500 web applications which will

Expect More!: Remixing Training Modes, Media, and Design at Masie's Learning 2013 Conference

Allen's industry experts will present and report on how to expect more from your training.

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Allen Communication's CLO Michael Noble and CEO Ron Zamir will present "Expect More!: Remixing Training Modes, Media and Design" at Masie's Learning2013 Conference. The annual conference, taking place November 3-6, brings learning professionals together to collaborate on improving techniques and leveraging innovative strategies.

Allen's session, will be held at 11:15 EST Tuesday, November 5, will demonstrate how to make over stale web-based and instructor-led approaches by remixing them with new mobile technologies, social applications, motion graphics, and game-based strategies. Showcasing unconventional strategies, Noble and Zamir will explore techniques for creating surprising hybrids like the instructor-led, app-based simulation or the gamified-story-tutorial-turned-social mentoring program. They will also demonstrate how to create new recipes using Allen's award winning iPad app, DesignJot.

Zamir will also participate in Tuesday's lunch panel, "Tired LMS," to discuss why Learning Management Systems are not keeping up with the evolving nature of learning. Currently, most LMSs do not offer the personalization the industry is demanding. Along with other panelists, Zamir will discuss how organizations can leverage new technologies to get a custom-tailored solution at lower cost of ownership.

Allen's Senior Design Consultants (SDC's) will also be attending the conference to provide insights and updates on Learning2013 happenings. Before and during the conference, SDCs will provide blogs, case studies, and insights that will be available via the Allen webpage http://www.allencomm.com/masie2013.

Wondershare(TM)'s New SafeEraser Stops Identity Thieves in Their Tracks by Permanently Deleting Everything from an iPhone(R)

iTunes(R) "Restores" Leave Behind Potentially Recoverable User Data; SafeEraser Securely Wipes the iPhone of All Personal Information; Meeting US Department of Defense Standards for Data Destruction

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Identity theft is on the rise as more people are using their iPhones for online shopping, making payments and even banking. Often times, identity theft can be traced to information recovered from mobile phones. When disposing of an old iPhone, many users will simply use iTunes to do a "restore" on the iPhone with the belief this erases everything, but the truth is in many cases personal data can still be retrieved using sophisticated data recovery technologies used by criminals. Wondershare's new SafeEraser gives users peace of mind by ensuring permanent removal of all personal information.

SafeEraser is a simple yet effective Windows® application, which permanently deletes all personal information by physically over-writing the iPhone's memory with random data and restores the iPhone to original factory setting while ensuring safety of the system and the device. Afterwards, there'll be no other data recovery tools that can recover any personal data from the device. Users can select fast 1-pass overwriting which overwrites the memory blocks 1-time, medium strength 2-pass overwriting, or maximum strength 3-pass overwriting which meets the US Department of Defense DOD 5220-22M standard for secure data destruction on digital devices.

Deeper dive on Wondershare SafeEraser's features:

    --  Peace of mind - 100% permanent data deletion with zero chance of
        recovery by hackers and identity thieves. Wipes out user names,
        passwords, photos, text messages, emails, call history...EVERYTHING
        stored on the iPhone;
    --  Works with all iPhone models running iOS version 5.0 and higher. Also
        works on all models of iPad® and iPod® Touch.  Works on iPhones that
        have been jail-broken too;
    --  3 modes for secure erasure: 1-pass (fastest, but least secure), 2-pass
        (slower but smarter deletion, other's won't know your phone was erased),
        and 3-pass which meets the US military standard for data destruction;
    --  Option for erasing an entire iPhone or just shred the free-space on the
        phone, a good safeguard to make sure deleted content stays deleted
        without having to wipe out the entire phone.
Wondershare SafeEraser is currently available for $19.95 for "one-time" use on a single iPhone, and $39.95 for use with up to five iPhones.

Cloudyn puts Managed Service Providers back in the Cloud Game

MSPs managing aggregated AWS capacity can now easily monitor and optimize cloud consumption as well as maximize ROI for themselves and their clients

TEL AVIV, Israel, November 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

    Cloudyn [http://www.cloudyn.com ](TM), the leading cloud cost analytics and
optimization company, has released a new platform called Cloudyn MSP that enables Managed
Service Providers to create new revenue stream, increase profit margin and round-out their
cloud offerings.

    MSPs, including system integrators and cloud resellers can easily visualize cost,
usage and saving opportunities across all customers. Cloudyn's offering also enables
accurate cost allocation and calculation of profit margins for each and every customer.

    While MSPs currently control about 15% of on-premise business IT, enterprises are
rapidly moving to the cloud, and MSPs are seeking new ways to stay relevant. Cloudyn's
monitoring and optimization tools enable them to be the cloud hero for their customers.

    "Our customers entrust us with managing their cloud deployments and maximizing every
penny they spend on AWS," said David Benson, CEO of DSB Consulting, a Los Angeles based
cloud MSP. Benson noted that "by providing a deeper visibility into AWS costs with
Cloudyn, we can highlight opportunities for optimizing spend and eliminating wasted cloud
resources across all our customers."

    Cloudyn MSP supports any type of AWS deployment with the ability to manage standalone
clients, as well as multiple sets of consolidated billing environments. Set-up can be done
in minutes, with MSPs able to view the high-level, aggregated deployment as well as
individual customer views. MSPs can easily match AWS accounts with relevant customers and
define permission levels for users so access can be shared in a controlled manner.

    "We are excited about our new MSP offering as it completely changes the cloud game for
system integrators, resellers and other cloud players," said Sharon Wagner, CEO of
Cloudyn. "Buying in bulk from AWS and then being able to redistribute to customers, with
the ability to ensure that margins remain optimal, changes the business model for them. We
urge as many MSPs as possible to try out the new platform for free."

    About Cloudyn

    Founded in 2011, Cloudyn is defining the cloud monitoring and optimization space.
Obsessed with maximizing public and private cloud ROI, our mission is to enable
enlightened cloud management. Cloudyn's SaaS solution delivers unprecedented insights into
usage trends and cost allocation, along with actionable recommendations for enhancing
performance and reducing spend. Aggregated and granular views of cloud consumption with

increased their cloud ROI up to 30-fold. With over 6 million virtual instances monitored,
Cloudyn regularly contributes statistics for studies such as the popular instructional For
Dummies series "Cloud Computing for Dummies." Based in Israel, Cloudyn is privately held
and backed by Elron Electronic Industries Ltd. (TASE: ELRN).

Socket Mobile Realigns Pricing for its Family of Colorful Bluetooth Barcode Scanners

NEWARK, Calif., Nov. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Socket Mobile, Inc. (OTC: SCKT), an innovative provider of mobile productivity solutions, today announced realignment of pricing for its family of colorful Cordless Hand Scanner (CHS) Series 7 Bluetooth barcode scanners for use with Smartphones and Tablets running operating systems from Apple, Google, Blackberry and Microsoft. The scanners are available in red, blue, yellow, white and gray. Socket's price alignments further the Company's efforts to offer barcode scanners which are of exceptional value without sacrificing features or function.

Standard case models in vivid colors include the 7Ci, 7Mi and 7Qi.

The CHS 7Ci is the smallest, lightest and most affordable CHS model in the family. As with all the models in the CHS range, the CHS 7Ci provides 10m Bluetooth range and a 1D (Imager) engine. It offers the user an excellent value general purpose scanning solution for multiple applications.

At the center of the family is the CHS 7Mi featuring a Class 2 laser engine ideal for applications with special barcode requirements or for use in challenging light conditions. The CHS 7Mi works well in bright sunlight and in low lighting and with barcodes that are small, tightly spaced on shiny surfaces or behind plastic or glass. 

Completing the family is the newest addition, the CHS 7Qi, which reads both 1D and 2D barcodes. It is a high performance barcode scanner which can read barcodes from device screens.

HGST Ships 6TB Ultrastar® He6 Helium-filled Drives for High-density, Massive Scale-out Data Center Environments

First Hermetically Sealed, Helium HDD Platform Provides Path for Higher Capacity Storage, While Significantly Lowering Power and Cooling, and Improving Storage Density

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/-- Cloud Expo Silicon Valley (Booth #209) --HGST, a Western Digital company (NASDAQ: WDC), today announced that it is shipping the 6TB Ultrastar He(6) hard disk drive (HDD).  Key OEM, cloud and research leaders working closely with HGST to qualify the drive include HP, Netflix, Huawei Unified Storage, CERN, Green Revolution Cooling and Code42, as well as some of the world's largest social media and search companies. Revealed in September 2012, HGST's cutting-edge HelioSeal(TM) platform provides a path for higher capacity storage for decades to come while significantly lowering customer total cost of ownership (TCO). Leveraging the inherent benefits of helium, which is one-seventh the density of air, the new Ultrastar He(6) drive features HGST's innovative 7Stac(TM) disk design with 6TB, making it the world's highest capacity HDD with the best TCO for cloud storage, massive scale-out environments, disk-to-disk backup, and replicated or RAID environments.

(Photo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120913/LA73138LOGO )

"With ever-increasing pressures on corporate and cloud data centers to improve storage efficiencies and reduce costs, HGST is at the forefront delivering a revolutionary new solution that significantly improves data center TCO on virtually every level - capacity, power, cooling and storage density - all in the same 3.5-inch form factor," said Brendan Collins, vice president of product marketing, HGST.  "Not only is our new Ultrastar helium hard drive helping customers solve data center challenges today, our mainstream helium platform will serve as the future building block for new products and technologies moving forward. This is a huge feat, and we are gratified by the support of our customers in the development of this platform."

Through HGST's innovative and patented HelioSeal process, the Ultrastar He(6) drive is the industry's first hermetically sealed helium-filled HDD that can be cost-effectively manufactured in high volume.  The breakthrough development of the hermetically sealed process is arriving just in time as key market requirements are colliding with HDD areal density constraints. According to IDC, areal density growth rates have slowed, and are expected at a rate of less than 20 percent per year from 2011 to 2016. Moving forward, HGST's helium platform will serve as the main platform for new technologies like shingled magnetic recording (SMR) and heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) where HGST will continue to push the HDD areal density envelope. The helium platform will also serve as the future building block for new, growing market segments such as cold storage, a space that HGST plans to address over the next couple of years.

"HDD industry areal density growth is not keeping pace with the rate of storage capacity growth in enterprise data centers," said John Rydning, research vice president, IDC. "HGST's proprietary, new, hermetically sealed, helium-filled HDD solution - the industry's first helium filled platform that simultaneously increases capacity while lowering power consumption and operating temperature - is intersecting the market at a time when IT managers are seeking out capacious and energy efficient new disk drives that will help to reduce the total cost of ownership of enterprise  storage systems."

TCOptimized(TM) - Driving Down Data Center TCO with Helium

The amount of data that companies need to store is growing exponentially, but IT budgets remain flat. With 6TB, a low 5.3 idle watts, a reduced weight of 640g, and running at 4-5°C cooler, the new Ultrastar He(6) lowers data center TCO on virtually every level. Key TCO benefits when compared to a 3.5-inch, five-platter, air-filled 4TB drive include:

    --  Highest Capacity HDD on the Market; 6TB, Seven-disk Design, Providing
        the Best TCO
    --  Lowest Power Consumption with Best Watts-per-TB
    --  23 percent lower idle power per drive
    --  49 percent better watts-per-TB
    --  Best Density Footprint in a Standard 3.5-inch Form Factor
    --  50 percent higher capacity
    --  Lighter Weight than a Standard Five-disk 3.5-inch Drive
    --  50g lighter even with two more disks, offering 50 percent more capacity
    --  38 percent lower weight-per-TB
Pushing New Limits: Ultrastar He(6) Enables Liquid Cooling in the Data Center - See the Demo at Cloud Expo, Booth 209

Data center designers and server vendors are continuing to pack more capability into smaller spaces, and with that, effective cooling is becoming a new challenge due to hotter components and less space for efficient airflow. One solution, which has been explored by many, is liquid cooling. Liquid, which is denser than air, can remove heat more efficiently and maintain a more constant operating temperature. However, traditional drives cannot be submerged as they are open to the atmosphere and would allow the cooling liquid inside, damaging or destroying the HDD. HGST's HelioSeal platform provides the only cost-effective solution for liquid cooling as the drives are hermetically sealed and enable operation in most any non-conductive liquid. Today, HGST is working with leading innovators in this space such as Huawei and Green Revolution Cooling.

HGST Ultrastar He(6) Availability

The 6TB HGST Ultrastar He(6 )hard drives are now generally available. For more information, please visit: http://www.hgst.com

QUOTE SHEET

"As a leader in Big Data solutions, HP is constantly working to improve storage densities. Partnering with HGST on their Ultrastar He(6 )drive allows HP to continue that leadership; delivering cost effective solutions to keep up with today's growing storage demands," said Jimmy Daley, director of Smart Storage, HP.

"The Netflix Open Connect delivery platform is a highly optimized video content delivery network.  We serve billions of hours of streaming video per quarter to over 40 million subscribers," said David Fullagar, director of Content Delivery Architecture, Netflix.  "As part of our efforts to optimize the delivery ecosystem for Netflix and our Internet Service Provider partners, we strive to build better and better streaming appliances.  The high storage density and lower power usage of the Ultrastar He(6) hard drives allow us to continue with that goal, and create a great customer experience."

"Huawei is very excited to be working with HGST. HGST has invited Huawei, one of the world's leading information and communications solutions providers, to become one of the first helium drive customers in Asia Pacific to collaborate on storage applications utilizing the new helium hard drives," said  Mr. Fan Ruiqi, president of Huawei storage product line. "With the new HGST Ultrastar He(6) drives, Huawei will be able to expand its product line with a strong competitive offering that has industry-leading lower power consumption and operating temperature, and an 87.5% improvement the system storage density compared to the current industry standard."

"Over the past 20 years, we've recorded more than 100 petabytes of physics data and our projected data growth rate is accelerating," said Olof Barring, IT Department section leader responsible for facility planning and procurement, CERN. "To scale efficiently, we must deploy vast amounts of cost-effective storage with the best TCO. We have tested the helium drive and it looks very promising: it surpassed our expectations on power, cooling and storage density requirements. We're excited about the opportunity to qualify the HGST Ultrastar He(6) hard drive in our environment."

"Our CarnotJet(TM) data center cooling system provides simple, high-performance data center expansion that can be dropped virtually anywhere in the world," said Christiaan Best, founder and CEO of Green Revolution Cooling. "Today a data center using the CarnotJet technology uses half the power of a traditional data center, with servers using 10% - 20% less power, and the facility cooling using an average of 95% less power when compared to air.  With HGST's new breakthrough 6TB Ultrastar He(6) drives, we will not only be able to offer the highest storage density per container, but with the drive's low power and low temperature, we can significantly lower power and cooling costs even further. These developments equal huge savings for our data center customers."

"Our CrashPlan enterprise endpoint backup is trusted by thousands of leading brand-name organizations worldwide," said Dan Mack, director of cloud engineering, Code42. "HGST's current 4TB enterprise-class drives help CrashPlan quickly scale to meet our customers' growing data storage needs. We're now evaluating the new, low-power Ultrastar He(6) drives as they provide 50 percent more capacity in the same 3.5-inch HDD footprint, while helping reduce power and cooling costs."

CIAmedia Caller Identfication App - Kim Ariyor? - Tops Seven Million Downloads on Android and iPhone Devices

VIENNA and ISTANBUL, November 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

    - Kim Ariyor? hits the number one spot in the Utility category in Google Play and the
iPhone App Store making it the most popular call identification app in Turkey

    http://ciamedia.com

    Mobile advertising technology company, CIAmedia today announced that its free caller
identification app, Kim Ariyor? has already topped seven million downloads achieving
number one ranking in both Google Play (Android) and the iPhone App Store in the Utility
category and making it the most popular caller identification app in Turkey.

    Competing with hugely popular mobile games and social media apps, Kim Ariyor? also
ranks extremely well against all free apps, currently sitting at position 13 (App Store)
and 18 (Google Play) and has achieved a highly valued four star customer rating in both
app stores.

    Proving that Turkish mobile consumers value their privacy and mobile functionality,
Kim Ariyor? allows users to identify whoever is calling them (from outside their personal
contacts) and to block unwanted calls from telemarketers for example. It also allows users
to save and back-up their contacts which consumers find useful when switching phones, in
particular from one mobile operating system to another.

    Moreover, the free app helps consumers reach the businesses and services that they
want by automatically suggesting alternative merchants nearby when a call goes unanswered.
Typically restaurants, banks, insurances, car dealers, consumer electronics stores, DIY
stores, taxis, sports and fashion retailers, and medical doctors are bad at picking up the
phone. Once a call is completed the user is also prompted to rate and review the quality
of their experience, providing useful feedback to other users on the businesses that they
routinely interact with.

    Claudia Dreier-Poepperl, CEO and founder at CIAmedia, said: "Achieving seven million
plus downloads and 4star ratings in both app stores really shows how Turkish mobile
consumers value their privacy and also how sophisticated they are as mobile consumers."

    "With up to 40 per cent of business calls going unanswered, the CIAmedia app also
represents a way for merchants and businesses to reach mobile consumers by suggesting
alternative contact numbers or displaying adverts and offers that benefit the consumer
right at the moment of need."

    About CIAmedia

    CIAmedia is a mobile ad-tech company that delivers Call Triggered Advertising,
creating entirely new mobile ad-inventory space that is initiated by voice calls and not
only based on browsing or in-app activity. Turning almost every phone call into a new
advertising opportunity CIAmedia's patented ad-technology, processes a user's call
behaviour in real time to provide highly relevant targeting options for advertisers.

    CIAmedia's technology runs in its popular Android apps Kim Ariyor? and CIA - Caller
Identification App(TM) (cia-app.com [http://cia-app.com ]) with more than 25 million users
around the globe. In Turkey the app has already created over 80 million impressions
creating a huge opportunity for major brands and advertisers to target consumers. The
ad-technology is also available via the CIA SDK to app publishers and developers who wish
to instantly increase ad-impressions and revenue from their apps.

Air Display 2 Optimized for Apple A7 in iPad Air and iPad mini with Retina Display

PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 31, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Air Display was the first usable app to let you use a nearby device as a wireless second display, and with the recent update to Air Display 2, Avatron Software has streamlined the interface, introduced multiple-display connectivity, and optimized the video drivers to take advantage of Apple's latest hardware, the iPhone 5s and new iPads.

(Photo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131031/SF08625)

Air Display 2: Faster, Smarter, Better

"Our primary goals for this new version were to make Air Display even easier to set up and more satisfying to use, and to make it absolutely scream on Apple's new 64-bit iPads," says Dave Howell, Avatron's CEO. "We wanted to make the iPad feel just as responsive as an ordinary computer monitor, but without the wires."

Faster. The Air Display 2 host-client communication is about 3 times faster than the best of class experience in the previous version. Avatron's proprietary video compression protocols now offer crisper performance, tuned to run smoothly on the iPhone 5s, iPad Air, and the new iPad mini with Retina display. "When we first tried Air Display 2 on the iPhone 5s," says Howell, "we were stunned by the graphic fluidity, both in playing movies and in performing everyday computer tasks. The A7 chip changes everything."

Smarter. Air Display's ease of use remains unparalleled. Its new freshness comes from working with the user community to find opportunities to improve. The result is a revamped and reorganized interface, optimized for iOS 7.

Better. Air Display 2 can connect the computer desktop to up to four displays simultaneously with video performance unmatched in its category. With just a click, the user wirelessly extends or mirrors their screen to up to 4 iOS, Android, Mac, or Windows clients at once.

Released in 2010, Air Display has consistently hovered at the top of the App Store rankings for Productivity apps. Air Display 2 builds on that "Best of Class" foundation with multiple display support, an iOS 7-friendly interface, and improved performance, tuned to take advantage of Apple's latest hardware.

Avatron Software

Avatron(R) Software is a leading developer of productivity-enhancing mobile apps, including Air Display, Air Sharing, and Air Login. Avatron was founded in April 2008 by Dave Howell, a former Apple software engineering manager. The company is based in Portland, Oregon.

Hauppauge Launches HD PVR Rocket, a Portable Video game Recorder for Xbox, PlayStation and PC Game Systems

HD PVR Rocket is the latest in the line of high definition video game recorders from Hauppauge, and includes a built-in audio mixer to record game commentary

PARIS, Oct. 31, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Hauppauge Digital, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAUP), the leading developer and manufacturer of HD video recorders, is launching its latest video recorder, HD PVR Rocket, at Paris Games Week in Paris, booth 3H59.

HD PVR Rocket records video game play from PlayStation, Xbox and PC gaming systems in high definition up to 1080p. The HD PVR Rocket is the ultimate portable video recorder: it is small enough to fit in your hand and weighs just 4.6 oz (130 grams). The HD PVR Rocket has a built-in audio mixer and has a USB port where a gamer can plug a USB thumb drive to record game play. A 16 Gbyte USB thumb drive, when plugged into the HD PVR Rocket, can record 4 hours of video game play at an HD resolution of 1080p.

The HD PVR Rocket follows the HD PVR 2, which was introduced in September 2012. While being the highest quality video game recorder on the market, the HD PVR 2 requires a PC or Mac to store video recordings. However, the all new HD PVR Rocket is standalone and does not require a PC for making recordings.

"Many of our gaming customers asked for a high quality game recorder which was portable. The HD PVR Rocket can be carried to gaming events to record game play and game commentary, and does not need a PC or Mac for recording," said Ken Plotkin, President of Hauppauge.

The HD PVR Rocket also has a built-in audio mixer so that gamers can record game commentary along with game audio. Game commentary is used by professional gamers to describe their game moves and strategies, and is one of the most widely used features in high definition video game recorders. A microphone can be plugged into the microphone jack mounted on the front of the HD PVR Rocket, and the built-in audio mixer will record game audio and game commentary. HD PVR Rocket has a control panel which allows gamers to adjust the volume of the microphone.

Once game play is recorded, Hauppauge provides a Windows application called Hauppauge Capture which can be used to upload video game play to YouTube. This application allows users to select their videos and upload them to their YouTube channel. Users can create YouTube channels and record and post their best game moves with game commentary using the HD PVR Rocket. The recordings made by the HD PVR Rocket are also compatible with a Mac for editing in iMovie and uploading to YouTube.

Any game system which uses either HDMI video without HDCP or uses component video can be recorded with HD PVR Rocket, including the Xbox 360 and Xbox One, PlayStation3, WiiU and PC based game systems. Sony has recently announced that the PlayStation4, their new game console which will ship in 2013, will also support game play recording through the HDMI port.

HD PVR Rocket will be available at major retailers throughout Europe starting November 15. The suggested retail price is 169 euros. It will also be available at Best Buy and other North American retailers starting November 15 at a suggested retail price of  $169.00

Sportfishing Value Added Data (VAD) Makes C-MAP 4D And MAX Even More Powerful Tools For Serious Anglers

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., Oct. 31, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Many visitors to the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show come in search of the latest technology to help them catch more gamefish in coastal and offshore waters.  Among the developments Jeppesen will be highlighting at the show are important updates to its exclusive Sportfishing Value Added Data (VAD) for C-MAP 4D and MAX cartography -- features that make these widely used electronic charts an even more powerful tool for serious saltwater fishermen.

For 2014, Jeppesen is introducing information about thousands of new reefs, hot fishing locations, updated state record gamefish information and latest angling regulations across the country. This valuable information helps anglers find productive fishing grounds and fish them more effectively.

Pinpointing fishing spots on compatible chartplotters is just part of the equation.   Jeppesen's Sportfishing VAD provides easy-to-use "information pages" that help anglers understand what types of fish are there, the size, depth and reef composition, and what type of bottom surrounds the structure.  With this detailed information, anglers can better understand the layout and orientation of key structure areas and determine where fish should be holding in given conditions.   This can help anglers target both resident and pelagic gamefish more effectively, whether fishing at anchor, drifting or trolling.  Other important angling intelligence is also available right on C-MAP 4D and MAX electronic charts, including fish information and ID photos, updated seasonal and gear restrictions, and size/bag limits that help keep anglers "in the know" and on the right side of the law.

C-MAP 4D and MAX cartography is compatible with a wide range of popular chartplotters from OEM partners Furuno, Standard Horizon and SI-TEX.  Jeppesen's latest Sportfishing VAD will be included with MAX charts and sold as an additional segment to C-MAP 4D Local charts.

D-CABLE Xpert's position as the most comprehensive DOCSIS testing tool available".

    Support for the 16x4 bonding configuration is an option in new D-CABLE Xpert systems
and may also be added on to existing systems by purchasing additional software and
hardware modules. Some of TraceSpan's customers are already in the process of purchasing
this enhancement for their D-CABLE Xpert systems, and many new customers are expressing
interest in this solution to utilize the full 16x4 bonding capabilities in their testing
environment.

    D-CABLE Xpert captures and analyzes the signals without using any DOCSIS chipset and
has no effect on the data transfer between the CMTS and the CMs. With its unique
multi-layer probing capability, it provides comprehensive DOCSIS 3.0 PHY and MAC layer
analysis from multiple upstream and downstream bonded channels simultaneously. It supports
DOCSIS 3.0 and EuroDOCSIS 3.0 as well as the legacy DOCSIS and EuroDOCSIS 2.0, 1.1 and
1.0.

    Its intuitive user interface displays detailed information for the physical layer, MAC
layer and upper layer protocols, thus allowing its users to quickly and easily monitor and
troubleshoot their DOCSIS equipment and networks. Cutting significant time from DOCSIS
development, deployment, troubleshooting and interoperability testing, D-CABLE Xpert
accelerates time to market and return on investment.
