CTIA-The Wireless Association® Statement on Senator Udall's Legislation Introduced Today

WASHINGTON, April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- In response to the legislation that U.S. Senator Mark Udall introduced today, here is a statement from CTIA-The Wireless Association® Director of External Communications Amy Storey:

(Logo:  https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100629/DC28223LOGO-a)

"Legislation is not needed. CTIA's members currently offer their customers a variety of tools and features, such as 24/7 support on websites and toll-free numbers, to help them monitor their usage. Many carriers also offer free shortcuts for consumers to check the number of texts, amount of voice minutes and data usage. In addition, the wireless industry continues to educate consumers with efforts such as today's launch of the 'Wireless Consumer Checklist' to ensure they have the right plans and services to meet their individual needs. Legislation that attempts to standardize these practices will also have the effect of freezing these developments in place and limiting innovation. That doesn't help consumers."     

CTIA-The Wireless Association® (http://www.ctia.org) is an international organization representing the wireless communications industry. Membership in the association includes wireless carriers and their suppliers, as well as providers and manufacturers of wireless data services and products. CTIA advocates on behalf of its members at all levels of government. The association also coordinates the industry's voluntary best practices and initiatives, and sponsors the industry's leading wireless tradeshows. CTIA was founded in 1984 and is based in Washington, DC.

Introducing Simpl, the Platform Where Social Innovators, Government, and Non-Profits Meet to Make Innovation Happen

LONDON and WASHINGTON, April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Imagine if there were an online marketplace where people with good ideas could connect with people, government agencies, and non-profit organizations who have the resources to make those ideas happen. Now, imagine how government might be transformed if they were able to participate in this idea exchange, inviting citizens and social innovators to help them solve some of today's most vexing problems.  Thanks to the launch of the new Social Innovation Marketplace Simpl, the concept of matching innovative ideas with the resources to make them happen has become a reality.

Code for America Hosts Launch of Simpl

The launch and initial social innovation matchmaking activities hosted by Code for America, at their San Francisco headquarters on April 5th, will be the first public unveiling of the new Simpl platform. This important milestone is the result of a partnership between public sector consultancy FutureGov and government marketing experts Rock Creek Strategic Marketing.  Find out more about the event in Craig Newmark's Huffington Post article.

How Simpl Works

The Simpl Social Innovation Marketplace is similar to other well-known online marketplaces like eBay, Freecycle, or even Match.com. Simpl is a platform where innovators can post ideas and ask for the resources they need to make the idea happen - anything from money to expertise or even office space to help get their idea off the ground. Once the ideas are posted, organizations and individuals with resources can bid on the ideas, sharing their resources with innovators.  Simpl also allows people and organizations, such as government agencies, to post "asks" where they outline a problem and invite social innovators to submit potential solutions.

Initial Simpl Responses are "Inspiring" and "Amazing"

"Initial response to the non-public beta version of the Simpl platform was pretty inspiring," said Scott Johnson, president and founder of Rock Creek Strategic Marketing, one of the firms responsible for developing the Simpl concept and platform.  "During the beta phase, we were impressed by many of the ideas posted on the site.  For example, one idea was the concept of a 'Good Gym' where people would be able to combine exercise with a meaningful task, like running to visit a lonely elderly person in a nursing home.  Another idea submitted was to create groups that focus on the school of 'everything', where lifelong learning would be reinvented and supported via the creation of local face-to-face peer learning groups."

"We can't wait to see what ideas and resources will be submitted now that Simpl will have a much larger audience," remarked Johnson.

Government Agencies Request Citizen, Private Sector Ideas for Social Problems

In addition to social innovators posting ideas, government agencies, and councils have also posted "asks" on the site.  For example, on recent "ask" was from a librarian seeking creative ideas to help support the young unemployed people who use her library on a regular basis. Additionally, the UK's largest fund for social entrepreneurs, UnLtd, recently used Simpl to help in its search for the 25 most ambitious social entrepreneurs in England. Representatives from UnLtd believe Simpl provided an opportunity to reach a far wider audience than ever before, helping them to seek out new and innovative ideas of all shapes and sizes.

Free Simpl Social Innovation Platform Registration Available at http://www.simpl.co

At this time, Simpl registration is free, and available to social innovators, individuals, government agencies, entrepreneurs, volunteers, and small businesses.  Users can quickly sign in using their existing Facebook or Twitter login credentials, or they may create another standalone account on the Simpl site. Interested innovators, agencies and non-profits should visit http://www.simpl.co for more information or to register.

Simpl is a social innovation marketplace that connects people with good ideas for radical social change with people in the public sector who want to do things differently.  For more information, visit http://www.simpl.co.

Paramount Defenses Announces Availability of Gold Finger 4.0, World's Most Powerful and Innovative IT Security Analysis Solution for Microsoft Windows Server and Active Directory

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Paramount Defenses Inc, an innovative, rapidly-growing, privately-held, Southern California company, led by a former Microsoft security expert, today announced the availability of Gold Finger 4.0, the world's most powerful and innovative IT security analysis solution in the world.

A PARAMOUNT GLOBAL SECURITY NEED

From the U.S. Government to the Fortune 1000, Microsoft's Active Directory is the foundation of IT security in Microsoft Windows Server based IT infrastructures, as it stores and protects all organizational user accounts and their passwords, all computer accounts and their security policies and all security groups and their memberships.

Active Directory also lets organizations delegate the distribution of administrative power in their IT infrastructures.

Delegation of administrative power helps organizations enable cost-efficiencies by enabling the distribution of IT management responsibilities amongst IT personnel. For instance, it lets organizations outsource IT help-desk operations such as account password resets to more cost-efficient service providers in India.

However, the challenge in delegating administrative access in Active Directory is that while it is easy to precisely delegate administrative access, it is extremely difficult to find out precisely who is delegated what access. This is because the technological sophistication involved in administrative delegation, coupled with dynamic business-driven changes in provisioned access, makes the assessment process difficult, time-consuming and error-prone.

Consequently organizations continue to delegate power in the proverbial dark, and in most organizations today, while large numbers of IT personnel have various levels of administrative access, no one knows precisely who has what access. For instance, while one of the easiest ways to engage in corporate identity theft is to reset a corporate user account's password, in most organizations, today no one really knows exactly who can reset whose password.

Not knowing precisely who is delegated what administrative power poses a serious security risk to organizational security because the unauthorized use of delegated administrative power, whether intentional, accidental or coerced, provides perpetrators one of the easiest ways to compromise large numbers of IT resources.

The need to know precisely who is delegated what administrative power on which IT resources is thus paramount.

A POWERFUL, INNOVATIVE SECURITY SOLUTION

Gold Finger 4.0 delivers on this paramount security need by completely automating the technologically sophisticated process involved in determining who is delegated what administrative access on which IT resources.

Gold Finger delivers accurate and reliable insight into exactly Who is delegated What administrative power, Where in their Active Directory, and exactly How so, and at a button's touch.

This availability of this information lets organizations worldwide find out precisely who is delegated what access, and how, and identify and eliminate all unauthorized access grants, in effect, for the first time ever, letting them reliably manage the distribution of administrative power.

Gold Finger is architected by former Microsoft Program Manager for Active Directory Security and endorsed by Microsoft Corporation. It is deployed at 4000+ organizations in 70+ countries, including Fortune 100 companies and international financial institutions.

Gold Finger 4.0 is now available, starting at US $4,999.

"We have spent more than two years developing Monkey Quest, asking kids for their input every step of the way," said Steve Youngwood, EVP and General Manager, Nickelodeon Kids and Family Group. "The result is an immersive and detailed online game with the look and feel of a state of the art console game, but with the accessibility of an internet browser that is fun to play."

Monkey Quest is an ever-evolving world that puts kids in charge and empowers them to chart their own adventures.  Based on an original property, the online game is set in the World of Ook, a mysterious realm where monkeys rule and five tribes must band together against one dark force that threatens them all. Players can team up in groups up to four, to work together to defeat monsters and solve puzzles. As players advance, their monkey avatars grow more powerful, unlocking each new tribe by completing quests and impressing the powerful tribal Monkey leaders.

Similar to closed captioning on television, Mobile Captions Service allows subscribers to read text of their phone conversations on the screen of their Nokia E5 smartphone.

Profile Migrator 2.0 Masters the Migration of User Settings and Data on Clients and Servers

COLOGNE, Germany, April 5, 2011/PRNewswire/ --     sepago, inventors of the Citrix User Profile Manager, make version 2.0 of
their Profile Migrator software available as freeware for unlimited
evaluation under http://www.profilemigrator.com. The new version extends the
performance spectrum of the universal enterprise solution for the migration
of profiles by the GUI controlled migration on clients: After provisioning
the project definition, user settings and data are collected "unattended"
from source systems and are written to newly created profiles and directories
on the target system.

    This results in simultaneous a profile cleanup along with the migration.
After the migration, users can immediately continue to work with their
familiar settings on the new system. This ensures business continuity and
avoids additional effort for the user helpdesk. Profile Migrator
significantly reduces the cost of a migration.

    Windows 7 and Office 2010 out of the box

    With the release of version 2.0, sepago also makes new ACS files
available free of charge. They permit the immediate and uncomplicated
migration of user settings for various standard applications. In a single
step, Profile Migrator masters not only a migration of the operating system,
e.g., from Windows XP to Windows 7, but also updates of software versions,
such as upgrades from Office XP, 2003 or 2007 to Office 2010.

    The ACS technology developed by sepago for profile migration makes it
possible to migrate arbitrary application settings with Profile Migrator. The
required ACS files can be created with the "ACS Builder" monitoring tool if
the need arises and can be post-processed with the "ACS Editor".

    Developed for enterprise use

    The ACS technology enables Profile Migrator to be deployed flexibly, so
that even homegrown programs and windows-based special software can be
migrated. The adaptability for use in enterprise environments is underlined
by further features. For example, scripts can be executed before and after
the migration and Profile Migrator 2.0 can be integrated into desktop
management suites such as SCCM.

    Like the first version, the new version of the sepago software also
supports all current migration scenarios. This also includes the changeover
of servers with a Windows Server 2003 operating system to the latest version
2008 R2. In this context, Profile Migrator manages the folder redirection
that goes along with the introduction of 64 bit as well as a change in
language versions.

    Profile Migration as bridge to the Cloud

    With Profile Migrator, cloud service providers import selected user
settings and data of their customers from physical desktops to their own
virtual desktops. Even user profiles on clients running, e.g., on Windows XP,
can be switched to Windows Server 2008 R2 and 64 bit technology in a single
step. Profile Migrator is Citrix Ready and part of the Citrix Desktop
Transformation Model.

Force10 Networks' Top-of-Rack Solutions Selected by Avid, a Leading Digital Media Editing Solution Provider

S-Series(TM) access switches to integrate with Avid ISIS 5000 shared storage system to provide customized, end-to-end solutions for small to mid-size businesses

SAN JOSE, Calif., April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --  Force10 Networks, Inc., a global technology leader, today announced that Avid®, a recognized leader in digital audio and video editing solutions, has selected top-of-rack (ToR) access switches from Force10 Networks to integrate with its Avid ISIS® 5000 shared storage system and provide customized end-to-end media editing solutions for small to mid-size production facilities. The ultra-low latency, port density and dynamic buffering capabilities of selected S-Series(TM) ToR access switches will enable Avid to provide a variety of cost-effective, flexible and real-time shared media storage solutions.

(Logo:  http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100831/SF55967LOGO)

To provide customized solutions for a variety of environments, Avid is integrating the S25N, S25P, S60 and S4810 1/10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ToR access switches into the ISIS 5000 offerings. For smaller editing environments with fewer ports, Avid is integrating the Force10 S25N while the S25P ToR switch is being used for similar-sized environments operating fiber-based networks.  For its mid-range customers, Avid will incorporate either the S60 (for 1 GbE backbones) or the newly offered S4810 for 10 GbE environments. The compact S4810 design provides 48 dual-speed 1/10 GbE (SFP+) ports.

"Post- and broadcast-facility production environments require high performance, the ability to collaborate and maintain flexibility depending on project growth as well as overall growth of the business," says Jim Frantzreb, senior market segment manager Media Enterprise, Avid Technology. "Integrating the S-Series ToR access switches, with their ability to deliver low latency and unique buffering profiles, enables us to provide our customers with enterprise-level functionality at a lower cost."

Low Latency and Dynamic Buffering Functionality Help Accentuate the Performance Characteristics of the ISIS 5000

Avid selected Force10 Networks as part of its own solution offering based on their ability to provide preconfigured S-Series ToR access switches that smoothly integrated with the mid-range ISIS 5000 platform that provides real-time shared media access to help users increase productivity while simultaneously improving the quality of content. The S-Series' ultra-low latency ensures line-rate L2 and L3 performance, which is especially critical for projects requiring collaboration. To achieve optimal throughput even in a congested network, Avid is able to leverage the dynamic buffering capability of the S-Series to allocate appropriate levels of bandwidth to different classes of traffic and to protect delay-sensitive applications from excessive queuing delays.

"The network requirements needed for media editing share similar characteristics as some other industry verticals, such as enterprise data centers, Internet exchanges and high-performance computing where Force10 has enjoyed considerable global success," says Arpit Joshipura, chief marketing officer, Force10 Networks. "Avid recognized the value of how Force10 ToR solutions provide ultra-low latency and enterprise-class features that are easily configurable and can be offered cost effectively for their small to mid-size customers who still rely heavily on the performance of the network."

The Princeton Review Releases SAT® Score Quest App for iPad

NEW YORK, April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The Princeton Review, a national leader in education services and test preparation, today announced its SAT® Score Quest(TM) App for iPad is now available on the App Store. SAT Score Quest is built upon The Princeton Review's 30 years of expertise in preparing college-bound students for the SAT while leveraging the large, high-resolution display and Multi-Touch capabilities of iPad.

The SAT® Score Quest App allows students to select their SAT score goals and take a short assessment designed to diagnose their relative strengths in the Critical Reading, Math and Writing sections of the SAT. Students can then immediately receive a personalized score report which guides their SAT preparation efforts. The app also contains short ShowMe lessons to each SAT problem on the assessment, in which an expert tutor demonstrates The Princeton Review's unique methodology for teaching students to arrive at the right answer as efficiently as possible. These visual lessons include the tutor's handwritten solutions to each question as well as an accompanying spoken explanation.

Additionally, the app allows students to record themselves working through SAT problems, using their finger to virtually write notes and answers on iPad's Multi-Touch display, just as they would write on an SAT test booklet--underlining, drawing diagrams, and crossing out wrong answer choices. Students can then play back these recordings to reinforce what they have learned, or to share these exercises with a parent, teacher or friend.

"Innovative, high-quality test prep is the core of The Princeton Review's mission," said Scott Kirkpatrick, president of The Princeton Review's Higher Ed Readiness division. "Whether in our books, mobile apps, online courses or in-person courses, The Princeton Review gives students the best tools with which to achieve their educational goals. We are excited to bring The Princeton Review experience to iPad."

The SAT® Score Quest App was developed by mobile app firm Easel, who created the unique method for leveraging the Multi-Touch display of iPad to allow for recording and playback of interactive step-by-step solutions, known as ShowMe. The Princeton Review's ShowMe lessons capture the effectiveness of an instructor teaching on a whiteboard using high-fidelity visuals and video clips for each solution. "ShowMe has proven to be a highly effective way to engage students and to showcase the strength of The Princeton Review's teaching methodology," said Kirkpatrick.

The Princeton Review's SAT® Score Quest App is the latest innovation from the firm that has put need-to-have test prep tools in the hands of students since the release of its New York Times bestselling book, "Cracking The System: The SAT", in 1986. Since then, The Princeton Review has established a reputation for excellence in preparing college-bound students for the SAT and ACT college entrance exams, as well as graduate school entrance exams such as the MCAT, LSAT, GMAT and GRE. In 2009, The Princeton Review released its first mobile app for iPhone and iPod touch, SAT® Vocab Challenge, which instantly became a go-to resource for aspiring college students across America.

The SAT® Score Quest App is available for free from the App Store on iPad or at http://www.itunes.com/appstore.

The tool is also invaluable for managing response staffing while saving significant dollars on postal and logistics costs.

To improve ease of use, desktop functionality, analytics, measurement and coordination with the USPS, SourceLink made several client-focused enhancements to MultiTrac®:

    --  Addition of ACS® (Address Change Services) to IMb® (Intelligent Mail
        Barcode).  Address change information can be received electronically to
        reduce or remove UAA (Undeliverable-as-Addressed) pieces, lowering
        campaign costs and eliminating waste from undeliverable mail.

    --  Utilization of CAPS (Centralized Account Processing System).  Allows
        customers to efficiently reconcile postage account transactions with the
        USPS, saving the time and effort of managing their postage funds on a
        campaign by campaign basis.

    --  Robust integration with client's custom software applications. This
        facilitates seamless  processing of information between MultiTrac® and
        client systems for internal use.

    --  Upgraded Web-based Desktop Application.  Clients can create unique
        tracking IMb's® on their own, reducing the overall processing time.

    --  The ability to scan returned mail and flag UAA customers. This enables
        MultiTrac® to provide an output file to easily reconcile client
        databases.

    --  Enhanced email module. Timed emails can be automatically sent to any
        mail recipient based on mail tracking information and delivery.

    --  Quality Control module. The IMb® can be scanned to verify customer
        information in the proofing process, reducing errors downstream in the
        production process.

"The ability to receive mail-tracking information in real-time allows marketers complete oversight of their campaigns throughout the entire mailing process," said Dan Browne, MultiTrac® Product Manager. "This helps ensure customers have the proper response mechanisms -- such as staffed call centers, stocked retail outlets -- and helps franchise locations plan for increased traffic at precisely the right time and respond quickly and efficiently. Tighter controls over timing help contribute significantly to marketing and cost optimization, which are more critical now than ever."

All told, MultiTrac® tools deliver best-in-class accuracy in predicting in-home mail delivery dates. As a result, customers can identify and improve underperforming records, coordinate multichannel marketing campaigns, track remittance pieces, balance logistics costs and postage discounts for cost-effective delivery all while demonstrating 100% delivery efforts for compliance mailings . The use of MultiTrac® affords marketers real-time reporting and access to reports that track mail pieces within the system -- to accurately predict in-home dates and facilitate a more efficient response-management program.

PopCap Games Launches New Small Games Label

Casual Games Leader Creates "4th & Battery" Design Center to Develop Experimental Social and Mobile Games

SEATTLE and DUBLIN, April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- PopCap Games, the worldwide leader in casual games, today announced the formation of 4th & Battery(TM) (http://www.4thandbattery.com), a new experimental label where PopCap's designers and developers have free reign to create smaller, simpler, and sometimes edgier games without the typical constraints of an established global games publisher. Named after the Seattle, Washington intersection where PopCap's Seattle headquarters are located, 4th & Battery today introduced its first game, Unpleasant Horse(TM).

"4th & Battery is a pressure valve intended to keep our heads from exploding," explained Ed Allard, Executive Vice President of Studios at PopCap. "The PopCap brand has become closely associated with ultra-high quality, polish and attention to detail -- which is a great thing. But our standard game development process is therefore long and involved, and doesn't really accommodate all of the creativity pumping through our collective veins. 4th & Battery gives us a way to quickly try really strange or marginal ideas, and to give our designers a safe area to hone their chops."

4th & Battery is expected to produce several games per year, primarily small-scale, arcade-style games for platforms ranging from PC to Facebook® and iPhone. Unlike PopCap's traditional franchises, some of the content emanating from 4th & Battery, including its initial launch title Unpleasant Horse, will be aimed at mature audiences.

"4th & Battery is a purely experimental, creative label with none of the typical concerns like schedules, profitability, or even target audience. It's kind of the video game equivalent of B-sides or short films," explained Jason Kapalka, co-founder and Chief Creative Officer at PopCap. "Expect weirdness."

The first game from 4th & Battery, Unpleasant Horse, was announced today. Players take on the role of - wait for it! - a strikingly unpleasant horse that sports wings and advances through the game by destroying small birds and landing on more pleasant horses from above. Landing atop other horses enables the player to force them earthward into a perpetual meat grinder for extra points and special bonuses. Available later this month for the iPhone and iPod touch through the Apple App Store, Unpleasant Horse will be available for free.

About 4th & Battery

4th and Battery is located in a secret druidic chamber below one of Seattle's largest public parks. Small groups of PopCap® game developers gather there when the stars are right to let their imaginations run wild. The results can be alarming.

About PopCap

PopCap Games is the leading global developer, publisher and operator of casual video games: fun, easy-to-learn, captivating games that appeal to all ages across PC, mobile, social and other platforms. Based in Seattle, Washington, PopCap was founded in 2000 and has a worldwide staff of more than 400 people in Seattle, San Francisco, Vancouver, B.C., Dublin, Seoul, Shanghai and Tokyo. PopCap's games have been downloaded over 1.5 billion times by consumers worldwide, and its flagship franchise, Bejeweled®, has sold more than 50 million units.

TrueCar, Inc. Announces Far-Reaching Partnership with Direct Response Leader Guthy-Renker

Groundbreaking partnership to include unprecedented equity investment from blue-chip direct response company in leading data-driven car marketplace

SANTA MONICA, Calif., April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- TrueCar, Inc., the automotive industry innovator in new and used car pricing, trends and forecasting, has announced that GR Match, an affiliate of Guthy-Renker LLC, will make a significant equity investment in the company. The seminal partnership will allow TrueCar to give millions more Americans access to truthful, transparent, upfront prices and a no-hassle car buying experience through Guthy-Renker's highly successful and proven method of targeting, messaging and network strategies to increase awareness of the brand on a mass scale.

(Logo: https://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110401/LA75616LOGO)

"Guthy-Renker believes in TrueCar's mission, value proposition, and ability to revitalize and transform the auto sales industry - a landscape that currently provides few positive experiences for the consumer and shrinking margins for the retail car dealer," said Scott Painter, CEO and Founder of TrueCar.

Guthy-Renker will play an integral role in shaping TrueCar's brand visibility by broadening and amplifying the power of its reach beyond the internet through the use of TV, print, radio, and other powerful advertising channels.

TrueCar has already helped more than 250,000 consumers save nearly $1 billion on auto purchases(1), while simultaneously helping its nation-wide network of certified dealers increase velocity and maintain margins through operational and marketing efficiencies, and a steady stream of in-market customers who are ready to buy. 

For dealers who join the TrueCar certified network, the Guthy-Renker partnership opens up the floodgates for exposure to millions of potential car buyers - men, women and families who are in search of a fair price and a positive, no-hassle car buying experience.

"TrueCar offers a paradigm shift for an entire industry.  It is fundamentally changing the way cars are sold," said Ben Van de Bunt, co-CEO of Guthy-Renker. "We are excited to partner with TrueCar and help them bring transparency and customer empowerment to an industry requiring both."

TrueCar is poised to move beyond the services provided by traditional websites such as Kelley Blue Book and Edmunds - solutions that have provided a measure of information to car consumers over the years, but have never provided the kind of transparency, accuracy or context of the unbiased data provided by TrueCar.

"The days of lead generation and haggling over price are over," said Bernie Brenner, Chief Strategy Officer for TrueCar.  "Moving forward, every car buyer in the United States can get a fair deal and a positive experience at the dealership.  It starts with the power of information and continues with real upfront pricing.  We are changing the game for both the dealer and the consumer."

Brenner continued, "Guthy-Renker understands the art and the science of reaching a wide audience.  We believe this relationship is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take the TrueCar brand national."

AT&T Building Most Advanced Mobile Broadband Experience in Denver, Announces 2011 Network Upgrade Plans

AT&T to Expand Backhaul in 2011 in Denver Area to Enable 4G Speeds, Increase Mobile Broadband Capacity, Upgrade Hundreds of Cell Sites

DENVER, April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T*, building on its strong 2010 record of network accomplishments, today announced network improvement plans designed to enable 4G speeds** and enhanced reliability to Denver and surrounding communities in 2011. The wireless network enhancement plans are part of AT&T's planned $19-billion investment in its U.S. wireless and wireline networks and other capital projects in 2011.

Bill Soards, president of AT&T Colorado, says AT&T plans the following network improvements in the Denver metro area in 2011:

    --  Deploying enhanced backhaul connections to about 400 cell sites to
        enable 4G speeds and add capacity to support more mobile traffic, like
        adding traffic lanes to a highway
    --  Installing approximately 24 new cell sites to improve network coverage
    --  Adding spectrum carriers to over 40 cell sites to support more traffic
    --  Installing distributed antenna systems in high-traffic areas and
        facilities, such as office buildings and sporting and event venues, to
        provide enhanced wireless coverage to customers in indoor or outdoor
        spaces where geographical limitations might otherwise prevent an optimal
        wireless experience

"Our story is getting even better for Denver and Colorado," Soards said. "Our recently announced agreement to acquire T-Mobile USA represents a great deal for customers and a major commitment to strengthen and expand our network. In fact, this deal, if approved, means that we'll be able to expand the next generation of mobile broadband - 4G LTE - from our current plan of 80 percent of the U.S. population to 95 percent."

"The T-Mobile acquisition provides a fast, efficient and certain solution to the impending wireless exhaust situation facing both companies while adding cell sites. Additional sites mean additional capacity which means fewer dropped calls. We'll be able to provide better voice quality and data performance to our customers."

Soards said AT&T invested more than $200 million in its Denver metro area wireless and wireline network from 2008 through 2010 as part of its commitment to superior service in the area. The 2010 upgrades included:

    --  Installing 10 new cell sites
    --  Upgrading and adding spectrum carriers to over 200 cell sites for mobile
        broadband
    --  Installing distributed antenna systems in high-traffic areas and
        facilities, such as office buildings and sporting and event venues.

A key planned upgrade for 2011 is deployment of enhanced backhaul connections to about 400 cell sites in metro Denver to enable 4G speeds. Backhaul connections carry traffic between cell sites and AT&T's nationwide network. Enhanced fiber-optic and ethernet backhaul connections expand capacity many times over, and enable additional expansion in the years to come.

"We're investing in our Denver network to help AT&T customers take advantage of the numerous capabilities of their wireless devices," said Jace Barbin, vice president and general manager of AT&T in the Rocky Mountain Region. "This year, we're committed to providing best-in-class wireless voice service to our customers, and we're backing that up with the right investments."

The investments made in the Denver area wireless and wireline networks are part of the $375 million AT&T invested from 2008-2010 across Colorado, Barbin said.

AT&T's advanced network provides several important advantages for customers. Unlike some competitors, AT&T's mobile-broadband network provides customers with the ability to talk and surf at the same time. For instance, you can look up directions to an event while staying on the phone with your boss, or browse your favorite social media sites will chatting with a friend. AT&T's mobile broadband network also is up to 35 percent faster than our largest competitor's CDMA-based network on average nationally.

AT&T also provides access to voice service in more than 220 countries and data service in more than 200 countries. AT&T's largest competitor's CDMA-only devices work in fewer than 45 countries.  Business Traveler magazine recently named AT&T as having the "Best Mobile Coverage in the World" - the fourth time AT&T has received the distinction.

"AT&T is consistently among the top companies in the U.S. in terms of our capital investment and we're committed to helping our customers right here in metro Denver take advantage of the numerous capabilities of their wireless devices," said Barbin.

Tom Clark, executive vice president, Metro-Denver Economic Development Corporation, said AT&T's significant investment to improve its network will further bolster Denver's reputation as a great place to live and work.

"High-tech expansions like this one help our business community, our local economy and our overall quality of life," Clark said. "Few businesses today are more competitive than the wireless industry. That level of competition results in investment and new technology, which delivers benefits to the entire community."

AT&T's focus is delivering the nation's most advanced mobile broadband experience, which includes delivering the benefits of mobile broadband networks, devices and applications. With the nation's fastest mobile broadband network, AT&T provides accelerated mobile data speeds and simultaneous voice and data capabilities for an amazing wireless voice and data experience. At the same time, AT&T offers a wide-ranging portfolio of smartphones and devices, with 20 4G devices planned for 2011, including a robust Android lineup. And we're driving development of wide-ranging mobile applications with three AT&T Foundry collaborative innovation centers planned for this year, as well as leadership in multiple initiatives to provide new tools for apps developers.

AT&T's mobile broadband networkis based on the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) family of technologies that includes GSM and UMTS, the most widely used wireless network platforms in the world.

AT&T also operates thenation's largest Wi-Fi network*** with more than 24,000 hotspots in the U.S., and provides access to more than 125,000 hotspots globally through roaming agreements. Most AT&T smartphone customers get access to our entire national Wi-Fi network at no additional cost, and Wi-Fi usage doesn't count against customers' monthly data plans.
