Meraki Enhances Network Insight Technology with Apple iPad Fingerprinting

SAN FRANCISCO, June 2 -- Meraki, the cloud-based wireless networking company, today announced that its Network Insight technology now fingerprints Apple iPads, aiding wireless network administrators in analyzing and supporting their networks.

Network Insight is a technology unique to Meraki's Enterprise Wireless LAN, wherein Meraki's access points perform application-level inspection on wireless traffic, capturing forensics information used by network administrators to analyze network activity and troubleshoot client issues.  The technology identifies network events (DNS, ARP, HTTP, etc), and client information such as the NetBios name, MAC address, operating system, and device make and model.  This deep packet inspection operates at line-rate, with no drop in performance.

Once captured, this data is uploaded to the Enterprise Cloud Controller, Meraki's hosted network intelligence platform, allowing a network administrator to access the entire network's data from Meraki's browser-based Dashboard management tool.

With the enhancements announced today, Network Insight distinguishes Apple iPads from other devices running the iPhone OS, namely iPhones and iPod Touches.

"There is incredible excitement around the iPad, yet network administrators are eyeing it with caution," said Kiren Sekar, Product Marketing Manager at Meraki.  "After the iPad's well-publicized DHCP renewal bug, as well as the potential for significant bandwidth consumption, administrators need visibility into their networks to see the iPad's impact and to support their users.  Meraki's enhancements to Network Insight make this simple."

In use at MIT CSAIL network (covering MIT's largest interdepartmental laboratory), Network Insight identified iPads as a significant driver of wireless traffic.  For the week ending May 21st, iPads made up 9 percent of all iPhone OS devices on the network yet consumed more than half of the bandwidth.  The average iPad user transferred more than 300MB over the week, compared to an average of 31MB for iPhone users and 12MB for iPod Touch users. Overall, 40 iPads transferred 13.3GB, out of a total of 4192 devices that had transferred nearly 1TB of wireless data.

"The visibility that Meraki provides into their wireless solution is invaluable in understanding our network and supporting our users," says Jack Costanza, Assistant Director at MIT CSAIL.  "Meraki removes the guesswork and uncertainty as we encounter new devices like the iPad that require us to adapt to new usage patterns."

iPad fingerprinting is available immediately for all Meraki Enterprise Cloud Controller customers.

About Meraki

Meraki offers enterprise-class wireless networks at a fraction of the cost and complexity of traditional networking vendors.  Using Meraki's unique cloud-based architecture, an administrator can configure thousands of Meraki access points over the web through a single interface.  The company's customers include small-to-medium sized businesses, global hotel chains, and world-class educational institutions.  Meraki wireless networks serve millions of users on over 15,000 networks in more than 140 countries.  Meraki is located in San Francisco, California, and is funded in part by Sequoia Capital and Google. Follow Meraki on Facebook and Twitter. For more information, go to http://www.meraki.com.

Motorola Broadens Digital Imager Portfolio to Meet the Challenging Data Capture Needs of the Enterprise

Scanners deliver new levels of productivity across a wide variety of industries

SCHAUMBURG, Ill., June 2 -- The Enterprise Mobility Solutions division of Motorola, Inc. (NYSE:MOT) today introduced new advanced data capture solutions designed to streamline and error-proof everyday processes across multiple industries. Motorola's new DS6878 cordless imager series and DS6707-HC healthcare-specific handheld imager help enterprises increase operational efficiencies and reduce errors with revolutionary scanning performance for improved quality of customer and patient care.

"With our deep heritage in advanced data capture technologies, Motorola continues to expand its portfolio of solutions to meet the specific needs of customers across vertical markets," said Al Quinn, vice president and general manager of advanced data capture, Motorola Enterprise Mobility Solutions. "Understanding that enterprise customer needs are different and continually evolving, Motorola is committed to delivering solutions that address customer pain points, empowering workers to transform the enterprise."

DS6878 Series breaks innovation barriers to improve productivity and transaction speed

As premium products in Motorola's general-purpose scanning portfolio, the DS6878 cordless imager series, including the DS6878-SR and DS6878-DL, are built on Motorola's revolutionary SE4500 scan engine for rapid data capture performance. The DS6878 series includes Bluetooth® technology for cordless scanning freedom across multiple environments such as at the point of sale (POS), returns desk, entrance gate or check-in counter, and comes in two models:

  --  DS6878-SR: This general-purpose cordless imager can capture all common
      bar codes, including 1-D, 2-D and PDF417, on labels and mobile phone
      displays. When paired with the hands-free presentation cradle, it can
      also capture and transfer images, documents and signatures. This model
      is ideal for POS purchase transactions, mobile loyalty and couponing
      programs, electronic record-keeping, event-ticket tracking and airline
      boarding-gate ticket verification.
  --  DS6878-DL: This model offers all the features and functionality of the
      DS6878-SR with the addition of a parsing agent to read United States
      drivers licenses. This device enables processing of applications for
      age verification, returns monitoring and auto-population of credit and
      loyalty card applications.

Other advanced features include optical character recognition (OCR) functionality to capture actual text in documents, as well as magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) technology to capture the numeric information on the bottom of checks to turn paper checks into electronic debit transactions. The DS6878 series is also IP43 sealed and includes omni-directional and superior motion tolerance for improved scanning performance on virtually any type of bar code, even poor quality and damaged bar codes.

Motorola DS6707-HC redefines patient care

The DS6707-HC imager is specifically designed for hospitals and clinics to automate data capture at the point of care to reduce errors in medication administration, specimen collection, patient admission and dietary management. This multi-use imager combines the functionality of a 1-D and 2-D bar code scanner, digital camera and document scanner in a single device. This reduces capital and operating expenses by eliminating the purchase, management and support of multiple devices in a healthcare environment. As a result, the DS6707-HC offers the scanning flexibility caregivers need to capture virtually any bar code, image, signature and document.

With best-in-class drop specifications and a hygienic design, the DS6707-HC can withstand the rigors of almost any healthcare environment. The scanner housing is disinfectant-ready, so caregivers can easily wipe down and sanitize the device - without harming the housing - to ensure that germs are not spread across a healthcare environment and to patients. The DS6707-HC also includes a unique aiming pattern to ensure the intended product bar code is captured properly. In addition, the DS6707-HC charging cradle conveniently mounts to medical carts providing additional flexibility to caregivers. The DS6707-HC complements the previously announced DS6878-HC cordless imager, providing a choice of devices to meet the versatile needs of demanding healthcare environments.

The DS6878 cordless imager series and DS6707-HC handheld imager are supported by Motorola's Remote Scanner Management (RSM), enabling enterprise IT organizations to configure, deploy, provision and manage fleets of imagers across facilities from a centralized remote location.

The DS6878 cordless imager series and DS6707-HC are currently available through Motorola and Motorola partners.

Berkeley Varitronics Systems Releases Stealthy Cell Phone Detector

Wolfhound-Lite's small form factor offers hands free detection while providing alternative to cell phone jamming

METUCHEN, N.J., June 2 -- Berkeley Varitronics Systems, Inc. (BVS), a leading provider of advanced wireless solutions and products to the domestic and international wireless telecommunications industry, today announced the release of an palm-sized cell phone detector called the Wolfhound-Lite.  Wolfhound-Lite is the second in a line of BVS' advanced cell phone detection products and can be concealed in any pocket or worn on a belt clip like a wireless pager.

(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20100602/NY13760 )

When Wolfhound-Lite vibrates, security and correctional professionals are alerted to nearby cell phone activity.  The device runs on standard Lithium Ion rechargeable 9-volt batteries for up to 8 hours enabling security personnel to continuously scan for all cellular voice, text or data transmissions while keeping their eyes and hands free.

According to the U.S. Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), the use of contraband cell phones by inmates has risen as the U.S. prison population continues to expand. The number of cell phones confiscated by prison officials has dramatically increased in only a few years. For example, during 2006 California correctional officers seized approximately 261 cell phones in the State's prisons and camps; by 2008, that number increased ten fold to 2,811. Maryland and other States have also seen a rise in the number of confiscated cell phones in their State prisons. In 2009, Maryland prison officials confiscated nearly 1,700 phones, up from approximately 1,200 phones the year before.

In order to address this growing problem, the Wolfhound-Lite is designed to detect and locate contraband cell phones without using jamming technology that can interfere with authorized communication channels or 911 emergency calls. In fact, jamming is a violation of FCC rules and the CTIA, a leading wireless industry association, is on record as opposing jamming. Other solutions may require an entire network infrastructure of wireless sensors hard-wired throughout a facility that can be expensive and difficult to deploy.

Wolfhound-Lite contains a high speed scanning multi-band receiver in a pocket-sized pager configuration.  Its integrated omni-directional antenna system allows correctional personnel to 'sniff out' a cell phone's unique RF energy algorithm and lock on to it.  The unit's bright but discreet OLED display indicates signal strength. Wolfhound-Lite also provides a stealth mode that alerts only the operator with vibration as soon as any cell phone is detected.

Most correctional facilities and prisons utilize a significant amount of steel and are not RF friendly resulting in poor cell phone coverage. This requires cell phones to transmit at higher power levels in order to maintain connection with nearby base stations. Wolfhound-Lite takes advantage of this anomaly, allowing the instrument to easily 'sniff out' the cell phone quickly and discreetly.

"The Wolfhound-Lite will allow correctional facilities to enforce an affordable NO CELL PHONE USE policy, since each security officer could potentially be equipped with a cell phone detecting watchdog," said Scott Schober, President and CEO of Berkeley Varitronics Systems.  "We believe secure facilities will come to depend on the Wolfhound-Lite to detect and confiscate the increasing number of contraband cell phones being smuggled in prisons that are not only used to threaten public safety, but also contribute to ongoing criminal activity."

World's First 3LCD LED Projector

3LCD Technology Powers World's Brightest LED Projector

LOS ANGELES, June 2 -- Samsung and 3LCD, the world's leading projection display technology, have teamed up to deliver the world's first 3LCD LED projector, the F10M. Announced in January at CES, the F10M is the world's first LED-based projector with 1,000 lumens.(1)

The versatile F10M delivers 1,000 lumens with a light life of up to 30,000+ hours and offers XGA resolution and an image size range from 40 - 300 inches, with HDMI input and PC connectivity. With 3LCD's efficient use of light, and an LED light source, the F10M offers customers an extremely energy efficient projector option, and the brightest LED projector in the projection industry.

In addition, the LED-based projector offers instant on/off functionality, requiring almost no warm up time, producing a nearly instantaneous projected image.

"Utilizing 3LCD technology in the F10M was an obvious choice," said Tom Grau, senior product marketing manager for Samsung Electronics Co., LTD. "The technology advantages offered by the 3LCD architecture ensure the F10M provides customers with an incredibly bright and energy efficient projector, and when paired with an LED light source, even more amazing color and image quality."

Powering the majority of all projectors in the business, education and home theater space, 3LCD's 3-chip design delivers vibrant, true-to-life images with high Color Light Output. The technology continues to be the leading choice for projection needs worldwide, as illustrated by its use in the innovative Samsung F10M.

  3LCD innovative features and technology advantages include:

  --  3-Chip Optical Engine:  All 3LCD projectors use a 3-chip optical
      engine to deliver incredibly bright, true-to-life color.
  --  High Color Light Output:  3LCD projectors deliver high Color and White
      Light Output so images, video and text always look their very best.
  --  No Color Wheel:  3LCD projectors do not rely on a spinning color wheel
      to produce color and do not suffer from "the rainbow effect" or "color
      break-up."
  --  Road-Tested Reliability:  3LCD technology is the #1 projection
      technology and has consistently been the choice of users who demand
      long-life performance and reliability.

  About 3LCD Technology

DOmedia Debuts DOfind to Help Advertisers and Agencies Connect with Media Providers More Efficiently Than Ever Before

Enhanced subscription tool enables easy, granular search of more than 200,000 alternative, traditional and digital out-of-home media properties

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 2 -- DOmedia (http://www.domedia.com), the most comprehensive database and tool set for alternative, traditional and digital out-of-home media, today released its enhanced DOfind tool to the public. The online, subscription-based tool allows agencies and advertisers to search more than 200,000 out-of-home media properties using an extensive set of parameters, such as venue type and target audience, for precise results. From the initial search results, subscribers can access detailed information for each product offering, including planning rates, locations, audience data, production requirements and company contact information. The result is a significant savings in time, money and resources during the concept development, research and early planning phases of a campaign.

Whether a subscriber is building a digital out-of-home media plan to reach active moms in the top 10 DMAs or needs unique media ideas to reach beach-goers in Southern California within 5 miles of a client's swimwear shop, the enhanced DOfind platform makes it easy to locate the information they need faster than ever before. Through its wide variety of search criteria options, DOfind easily powers both broad and targeted data requests. Search options include defined geographies (DMAs, MSAs, ZIP Code and proximity to a location), media category, venue type or target audience demographics. Dynamic filters, user-defined sort order and Product Profile summaries enable DOfind subscribers to quickly identify the best media options for their needs.

From the Search Results, subscribers can select the appropriate Product Profiles to access critical planning-level data such as network at a glance (for digital place-based media only), planning rates, contract terms, audience demographics, network impressions, coverage areas, art requirements and production specs, to name a few. Additionally, agency and advertiser clients can send an electronic request-for-information (RFI) at any time, using a quick link within the profile. After viewing product information at an aggregate level, the user can then view location-specific information for each listing.

"With the launch of DOfind, subscribers can now navigate the industry's most extensive data warehouse of out-of-home media properties using a refined vertical search engine," said Rich Langdale, Interim CEO, DOmedia & Managing Partner, NCT Ventures. "DOfind not only helps our clients identify what media properties are out there, it also gives them unparalleled information about each and every one of them. With this tool, agencies and advertisers can research and identify the right properties and providers for their campaigns more efficiently than ever before, giving them more time to plan creative, effective and successful campaigns."

DOmedia unveiled its first search platform in August 2008 (during the OAAA STAR Showcase) and solicited extensive customer feedback to improve the research vehicle, both in terms of search functionality as well as the media property data available. That feedback has been incorporated into DOfind's enhanced capabilities and interface, resulting in an experience optimized for usability.

DOmedia's basic search tool remains a valuable, complementary research and ideation resource available to all approved, registered users. Basic elements such as name, address and contact information for the media provider are available for free.

With the purchase of a DOmedia subscription, qualified agency and advertiser clients receive unlimited access to all DOfind features for 12 months from the activation date. Pricing is based on the total number of registered subscribers within each organization. For more information, an online demonstration, or to request a free trial, visit http://www.DOmedia.com.

About DOmedia

DOmedia connects agencies and advertisers with an extensive nationwide database of alternative, traditional and digital out-of-home media properties and providers. Through its online platform, the site encourages the creative use of people, places and things (such as place-based digital networks, street teams, sides of buildings and more) to help advertisers develop the most compelling campaigns. Innovative inventory management tools and in-depth search functionality simplify participation in this growing media channel. DOmedia currently has more than 200,000 media properties, 700 media providers and 300 agencies and advertisers registered on the site. The company is privately funded and based in Columbus, Ohio.

BizAuctions Begins Listing First Shipment of Electronics-TV's From Creating Lifestyles

SAN DIEGO, June 2 -- BizAuctions, Inc. (Pink Sheets: BZCN), a prime provider of commercial eBay and Amazon liquidation services for excess inventories, overstocks and returns, begins listing its first load of electronics from Creating Lifestyles on eBay.

Delmar Janovec, CEO comments, "BizAuctions began eBay listings on May 27 of the electronics-TV's it purchased from Creating Lifestyles, an electronics wholesaler, after BizAuctions completed its testing of the TV's. We are anxious to see how this first round of TV's sell as this Creating Lifestyles product line varies from our normal product line of TV's due mostly to the earlier manufacture date. Some of the TV's have good price points for Plasma TV's that carry a 30-day warranty for the consumer. We plan to include the Creating Lifestyles product line of electronics in the BizAuctions-La Jolla Liquidation live-auction along with Tropicana Hotel & Casino consignment inventory, additional BizAuctions electronics, and general merchandise that is scheduled for June 19, 2010 at the office-warehouse of BizAuctions, 1510 Corporate Center Drive, Otay Mesa, CA. The Creating Lifestyles product line of electronics targets the buyer who is looking for name brand electronics and at a favorable pricing point. BizAuctions and Creating Lifestyles are in the beginning stages of a business relationship which should prove to be beneficial for both companies while providing BizAuctions with another product line of electronics that should ultimately benefit the consumer."

"BizAuctions employs two primary business models, whereby it liquidates inventory through eBay and Amazon on consignment for a lucrative commission; and/or it purchases inventory at a fraction of retail price for the purpose of liquidating it for a profit. BizAuctions consigns, buys inventory, and liquidates through eBay and Amazon platforms and its recently opened retail store, Lucky 7's," continues Janovec.

The Company's clients have included some of the Nation's leading retail names at the forefront of their industries. With a long-term strategy to provide liquidation services to Fortune 1000 enterprises, BizAuctions is a clear and lucrative solution for most any business to liquidate excess inventory on its eBay and Amazon platforms and its Lucky 7's retail store.

ThePirateBay.org and Meezoog.com Launch Friends-Sharing Dating Network

Innovative dating network for long-term relationships allows singles to share information and social connections

NEW YORK, June 2 -- Meezoog.com, a leading provider of trust-based social dating, announced today the launch of PirateDate.com in cooperation with ThePirateBay.org (TPB) - the leading file-sharing site.

The launch of PirateDate.com has come amid legal turmoil and efforts to shut down ThePirateBay.org.  This launch stands in contrast to recent rumors about selling TPB.  It also indicates the persistence and endurance of TPB, as well as the emergence of a web-based ecosystem to maintain TPB's existence and leadership, as well as its expansion into new markets.

The new dating network presents a radically different concept to traditional dating sites, and it follows the TPB core concept of social sharing.  PirateDate allows singles to share and assist their social connections in finding potential dates, while getting recommendations and referrals from their friends.

PirateDate utilizes Meezoog's technology to provide users with "social proximity" measurements, that allow people to efficiently filter their cyber connections.  In addition, the site is connected with Facebook and it aims to compete with leading personals sites, like Match.com and eHarmony.

About The Pirate Bay

TPB is the world's largest Bittorrent tracker.  The Pirate Bay was started by Swedish anti copyright organization Piratbyran in late 2003.  In October 2004 it separated and was run independently by dedicated individuals.  In 2006 the site changed its ownership again.  Today the site is run by a non-profit organization.

About Meezoog

Meezoog is the world's first dating network geared exclusively toward the international, working professional community, built on a fully-secure and trust-based platform.  Meezoog's technology provides a safe and lifelike experience for users looking for love and friendship on the Internet.  Modeled after a person's real-life social circle, Meezoog allows friends to act as matchmakers.  Meezoog's technology addresses the issues of Internet scamming and fake profiles with "social trust" built on the company's patent pending technology.

Only official AVP Beach Volleyball game for iPhone enables fans to play as or against Olympic gold medalists

HOUSTON, June 2 -- Want the close-up action and excitement of pro beach volleyball with access to the gold medal players? Released today, AVP GOLD Beach Volleyball delivers a realistic and fun game -- right into the hands of serious and casual gamers as well as die-hard volleyball fans.

Offering an impressive number of game options and exclusive AVP content, this exhilarating game gives players the opportunity to compete as or against pro beach volleyball's American Olympic gold medalists in a choice of four of the world's most beautiful beach settings. The action-packed AVP GOLD Beach Volleyball game is now available for download through iPhone's App Store or at Apple's iTunes Store for $3.99.

"The AVP is proud and excited to partner with Soarion Studios and our four gold medalists, Misty May-Treanor, Kerri Walsh, Todd Rogers and Phil Dalhausser, to produce the AVP GOLD Beach Volleyball iPhone app," said Canyon Ceman, AVP vice president.

Jam-packed with tons of addictive features and game play, AVP GOLD Beach Volleyball promises to energize gamers and keep them entertained. RAH!

A perfectly hit spike shakes the camera. While beginners may choose to play in "regulation" mode, allowing them to choose their opponent's skill level and total game points, more experienced gamers can try to beat the clock in "time attack" mode which increases the challenge and takes AVP GOLD Beach Volleyball to a whole new level.

Sonic to Acquire DivX

Combination Creates Digital Video Delivery Powerhouse; Streamlines "Over the Top" Distribution of Hollywood Movies

NOVATO, Calif. and SAN DIEGO, June 2 -- Sonic Solutions® (NASDAQ:SNIC) and DivX, Inc. (NASDAQ:DIVX) today jointly announced that they have signed a definitive merger agreement for Sonic Solutions to acquire DivX, Inc., a leading digital media company, based in San Diego, California.  Under the terms of the agreement, approved by the boards of directors of both companies, Sonic would acquire all the outstanding shares of DivX and merge DivX operations into those of Sonic. DivX stockholders would receive a combination of cash and stock equal to $3.75 in cash and 0.514 shares of Sonic common stock for each share of DivX they hold. The acquisition, which is expected to close in September 2010, is subject to approval of the shareholders of both companies as well as applicable regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.

For more than 20 years, Sonic has been the leader in developing technologies for the preparation and delivery of entertainment content in popular formats -- CD, DVD, Blu-ray Disc and most recently Internet delivery of video.  The acquisition of DivX is expected to advance Sonic's mission to deliver technology that makes it easy and convenient for retailers, online services, Hollywood studios, and manufacturers of CE and mobile devices to distribute premium digital video content over the Internet.  DivX is expected to enable Sonic to deepen and broaden the technology it offers for Internet-based video delivery and expand its relationships with leading retailers and consumer electronics manufacturers.

DivX is a leading digital media company that enables consumers to enjoy a high-quality video experience across any kind of device. The DivX brand is recognized worldwide and supported by a community of millions of consumers.  DivX technology -- encoders for formatting video, decoders for playback, and digital rights management (DRM) for content protection -- resides on over 300 million devices shipped into the global market from all major CE manufacturers including over 8,500 models of digital televisions, DVD and Blu-ray Disc players, and over 80 different mobile handsets.  In addition, the DivX web properties enjoy more than 12 million unique visits each month.

Sonic believes that the acquisition of DivX will provide a number of key benefits:

  --  The acquisition is expected to be accretive to Sonic's shareholders,
      potentially doubling fiscal year 2012 earnings per share on a non-GAAP
      basis.
  --  The DivX technologies are expected to give Sonic a more extensive
      solution for Internet video delivery including the dominant tools for
      content preparation in "the cloud," video playback, and
      Hollywood-approved DRM.
  --  DivX is expected to provide leverage to Sonic's strategy of consumer
      electronics deployment - the DivX player and DRM is deployed in
      products from more than 150 different CE manufacturers worldwide on
      millions of devices.
  --  The DivX brand is known worldwide as an indicator of compatibility,
      quality, and ease of use.

Overall, the combination of DivX technology, capabilities, and market position is expected to advance Sonic's mission: to make publishing, delivery, and enjoyment of movies over the Internet as easy and widespread as DVD delivery is today.

"Our studio, storefront, and consumer electronics partners agree: they want a clear and efficient path to deliver premium content to their customers," said Dave Habiger, president and CEO of Sonic Solutions.  "The combination of Sonic and DivX promises to be the foremost provider of platforms, tools, and technologies for the efficient delivery of premium video entertainment to virtually any type of consumer electronics device.  We expect DivX's deep technology and broad deployment in the CE and mobile areas to give us significant leverage as we expand and enhance our RoxioNow premium entertainment platform."

"Sonic and DivX are both market leaders in digital media and share similar visions about a better media future for consumers," stated Kevin Hell, CEO of DivX.  "We also share similar cultures and both recognize the tremendous market opportunity that lies ahead for Internet video services. By combining our products, technologies, partnerships, and talented employees, we immediately create a complete end-to-end delivery platform for digital media, with expanded reach and capacity, at a perfect time to capitalize on the market's rapid development.  With the acquisition of DivX, Sonic should be extremely well positioned to serve existing customers, attract new partners, and increase our market presence and potential."

The current Sonic management team (including Dave Habiger, Clay Leighton, Paul Norris, Mark Ely, and Matt DiMaria) will lead the combined company, augmented with key managers and executives from DivX.  Kevin Hell, DivX's chief executive officer, Dan Halvorson, DivX's chief financial officer and executive vice president, operations, and David Richter, DivX's executive vice president, business & legal affairs and general counsel, will be cooperating closely with the Sonic team to close the transaction and integrate the companies, but will not continue in the combined company in their current positions. Following completion of the merger, DivX stockholders will own approximately 35% of the combined company's capital stock.  Sonic expects to add two members of the DivX board of directors, to be named later, to its board at the closing of the transaction.

Oppenheimer & Co. is acting as DivX's exclusive financial advisor in the transaction.

Sonic Earnings Preview and Announcement

As previously announced, Sonic plans to release its financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter and full year (ending March 31, 2010) on Thursday, June 3.  In order to facilitate discussion with investors on the impact of the DivX merger, Sonic is announcing today the following key points from its upcoming earnings announcement:

For the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2010, Sonic recorded $26.4 million in revenue, $1.2 million in net income or $0.04 per fully diluted share on a GAAP basis.  Sonic expects that, for the first quarter of the 2011 fiscal year (the quarter ending June 30, 2010), it will generate approximately $25.0 million in revenue.

Shareholders and investors interested in more detail are encouraged to review the announcement Sonic will make tomorrow, as well as Sonic's Annual Report on Form 10-K, which it plans to file shortly.  In light of today's announcement, Sonic will not be hosting its previously scheduled earnings conference call on June 3, and instead encourages participation in the following joint conference call.

Most Reliable Wireless Network Just Got Better for Customers in Northern Michigan

$750,000 Integration of Verizon Wireless' and Alltel's Networks Delivers Stronger Coverage in Antrim, Charlevoix, Emmet, Kalkaska and Grand Traverse Counties

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich., June 2 -- Verizon Wireless today announced it has completed a $750,000 integration of its network with that of Alltel across much of northern Michigan, including Antrim, Charlevoix, Emmet, Kalkaska and Grand Traverse counties, to provide customers with clearer reception, fewer dropped calls and more coverage, including stronger in-building coverage.

Verizon Wireless' voice network and high-speed 3G data network (that lets customers rely on their phones for just about everything other than making calls) combined with that of Alltel creates the largest wireless network footprint in the United States. The integration enables more customers to use their wireless phones concurrently to make calls; send and receive email and text, picture and video messages; access the Internet; view high-quality videos; and download music, games and ringtones.

"The addition of Alltel's network to the Verizon Wireless network provides our customers with unmatched coverage across northern Michigan," said Greg Haller, president-Michigan/Indiana/Kentucky Region, Verizon Wireless.

We are committed to continuing to perfect our network so that our customers in Michigan know they can depend on us every time they use their wireless devices."

Verizon Wireless has been preparing to integrate Alltel's network since completing its purchase of the company more than a year ago. Alltel's 3G data network has been upgraded to the latest revision of wireless broadband technology to enable faster delivery of data services, including email and browsing the Internet.

Verizon Wireless has invested more than $59 billion since it was formed--$5.7 billion on average every year--to increase the coverage and capacity of its premier nationwide network and to add new services. Since the company was formed in 2000, Verizon Wireless has invested more than $1.4 billion on improvements to its wireless network in Michigan.

Fujitsu Microelectronics Introduces Industry's First 3G and LTE SAW-less Transceiver

Providing a New Multimode, Multiband LTE/UMTS/GPRS/EDGE Solution in a Compact, Single-chip, Including Open Standard Digital Interface for 4G/3G/2G Multimode Phones

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 2 -- Fujitsu Microelectronics America, Inc. (FMA) today introduced the industry's first transceiver that supports 3GPP LTE/WCDMA/EGPRS wireless phones.

The Fujitsu MB86L10A transceiver eliminates 3G and LTE TX and RX interstage SAW filters and low-noise amplifiers (LNAs). The single-chip transceiver features backward compatibility with a high-level programming model (API) for radio control using DigRF/MIPI D3G and D4G open standard digital interfaces. This makes the new MB86L10A compatible with a wide range of industry basebands.

The compact module enables cell phone manufacturers to reduce component count, board space and total bill of materials. Its simplified programming model significantly reduces development time and simplifies integration of the RF in a radio platform. The transceiver, which is optimized for compressed mode operation, features quad-band GSM/EDGE and up to five WCDMA or LTE bands in a single-phone configuration.

The MB86L10A includes eight outputs that directly drive the power amplifier, eliminating the need for TX SAW filters while simultaneously supporting advanced multimode PAs. The receiver provides nine inputs that support LTE, WCDMA and GSM/EDGE. The new RF front-end eliminates the need for LNAs and SAW filters. Five additional ports enable RX diversity in WCDMA and LTE modes. The receiver also incorporates anti-aliasing filters, digital channel filters, digital gain control and high-dynamic-range ADCs.

The MB86L10A supports GSM (GSM850, EGSM900, DCS1800, PCS1900), WCDMA (Bands I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VIII, IX, X and XI) and LTE (FDD Bands 1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 17 and TDD band 38 or 40). The transceiver includes dual 3G and 4G DigRF interfaces to the baseband IC to support the latest as well as legacy generations of basebands, SPI and/or GPOs control PAs, switching regulators and antenna switches. A microcontroller in the transceiver simplifies timing and control.

"The Fujitsu MB86L10A LTE multimode transceiver is the first of its kind to eliminate LNAs and 3G/4G TX and RX SAWs, reducing board area, component count and cost," said Vivek Bhan, senior director of RF Engineering and Product Development for Fujitsu Microelectronics America. "This LTE multimode RF transceiver supports most global band configurations and standard interfaces, and its simple RF API programming reduces radio integration time. The result is smaller radios with optimal time to market for handset manufacturers worldwide."

MB86L10A Now in Pre-Production Field Trials

The new MB86L10A adds to the company's leadership in the mobile phone RF transceiver market, following the September 2009 introduction of the first commercial multimode 2G/3G SAW-less transceiver, the MB86L01A. (See related press release, http://www.fujitsu.com/us/news/pr/fma_20090914.html.)

The MB86L10A transceiver is in pre-production phase and is supporting field trials at a major carrier. The field trial is exercising the new device in 2G, 3G and 4G modes across multiple bands and both DigRF interfaces.

"It's fantastic to receive direct feedback from leading LTE carriers," said Bhan. "The early feedback on an advanced new standard will help develop a stable product faster, speeding time to market."

Availability

Samples of the MB86L10A manufactured in 90nm CMOS process technology are available now in 230-pin, 6.5 mm x 9.0 mm x 0.9 mm LGA packages. Volume pricing is available upon request.

One Million Downloads of Realtor.com iPhone App in Five Months

iPhone Users Say iLOVE Realtor.com App With Overwhelming Usage and Download Response

CAMPBELL, Calif., June 2 -- In five short months, iPhone users have downloaded the Realtor.com® Real Estate Search iPhone application one million times to search the #1 homes for sale website, twice as many downloads as the next closest competitor in the same time period (1). The Realtor.com iPhone app, launched on January 13, 2010, by Move, Inc.(NASDAQ: MOVE), the leader in online real estate, has been named one of four great iPhone apps by Money Magazine.

Since the January 2010 launch, iPhone users have tapped into the Realtor.com website through the Realtor.com iPhone app on average of two times per day as they search for local properties and connections to Realtors®.  In April 2010, the number of iPhone users searching for real estate with the Realtor.com iPhone app was four times higher than a close competitor (2).

The Realtor.com Real Estate Search application is categorized as a Lifestyle Application in the Apple® iTune® store.  In the past five months, while the average minutes per session of the average iTunes Lifestyle application is five to six minutes (3) , the average minutes per session of consumers using the Realtor.com Real Estate Search iPhone application surpasses 16 minutes.

Today, Realtor.com also announced several new features now available on the Realtor.com Real Estate Search application including the 'Area Scout' feature and several new search features such as waterfront, garage, multi-story, and more.

"Area Scout" combines iPhone GPS capabilities with automated search features delivered by the Realtor.com iPhone app to provide automatically updated search results on the go.  As a result, house hunters can now quickly find listings and obtain detailed features such as proximity to major roadways, average price per square foot, average prices of homes nearby, and average home sizes in the area in the Map View feature. To access 'Area Scout,' users simply perform a Nearby Search, switch to the Map View and press the 'Area Scout' button in the bottom right-hand corner, and the feature is up and running.

"We're very pleased with the extraordinary response buyers, sellers and real estate professionals across the country have had to the Realtor.com Real Estate Search iPhone app," said Steve Berkowitz, chief executive officer of Move, Inc., operator of Realtor.com.  "With more than 7.5 million homes viewed on the Realtor.com iPhone app every month since our launch in January 2010, and thousands of calls and emails to Realtors from consumers via the app each month, our iPhone app is clearly connecting buyers with Realtors as they search for real estate properties and information."

Berkowitz continues by explaining that while site traffic and engagement to Realtor.com is historically strongest during weekdays (4), consumer usage of the Realtor.com Real Estate Search app peaks on weekends by approximately 37 percent.  To help Realtor customers market their brands and client properties on the Realtor.com iPhone app, the company offers premium listing advertising opportunities on Listing Detail Pages that display individual homes for sale.

The free Realtor.com Real Estate Search iPhone app is compatible with iPhone OS 3.0 or higher and the iPod Touch, and can be downloaded at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/real-estate-search/id336698281?mt=8 or by going to a consumer information page on Realtor.com at http://www.realtor.com/iphone?source=a27508.

AT&T Announces New Lower-Priced Wireless Data Plans To Make Mobile Internet More Affordable To More People

DALLAS, June 2 -- AT&T*, the U.S. smartphone leader, today introduced new wireless data plans that make it more affordable for more people to enjoy the benefits of the mobile Internet. Customers can pick the new data plan that best meets their needs - either a $15 per month entry plan or a $25 per month plan with 10 times more data. Current smartphone customers are not required to switch to the new plans, but can choose to do so without a contract extension.

"AT&T helps mobilize everything on the Internet - your favorite web sites, TV shows, music, games and social networks. Virtually everything previously done while sitting at a computer can now be done on the go," said Ralph de la Vega, president and CEO, AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets. "To give more people the opportunity to experience these benefits, we're breaking free from the traditional 'one-size-fits-all' pricing model and making the mobile Internet more affordable to a greater number of people."

Each plan includes unlimited access at no additional charge to more than 20,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots in the U.S. Customers can also use unlimited Wi-Fi at home, in the office or elsewhere if available. AT&T will also help customers manage their wireless data usage by sending free text messages after customers reach different usage intervals and by providing online tools, including a smartphone app that shows monthly usage information.

The new wireless data plans - including a new tethering option - will be available beginning June 7.  Current AT&T voice and texting plans are unchanged.

More Choice

The new AT&T plans provide large amounts of data to enable people to enjoy their favorite online activities:

  --  DataPlus. Provides 200 megabytes (MB) of data - for example, enough to
      send/receive 1,000 emails (no attachments), plus send/receive 150
      emails with attachments, plus view 400 Web pages, plus post 50 photos
      on social media sites, plus watch 20 minutes of streaming video - for
      just $15 per month.**  This plan, which can save customers up to 50
      percent off their wireless data charges, is designed for people who
      primarily like to surf the web, send email and use social networking
      apps. If customers exceed 200 MB in a monthly billing cycle, they will
      receive an additional 200 MB of data usage for $15 for use in the
      cycle.  Currently, 65 percent of AT&T smartphone customers use less
      than 200 MB of data per month on average.
  --  DataPro. Provides 2 gigabytes (GB) of data - for example, enough to
      send/receive 10,000 emails (no attachments), plus send/receive 1,500
      emails with attachments, plus view 4,000 Web pages, plus post 500
      photos to social media sites, plus watch 200 minutes of streaming
      video - for $25 per month.**  Should a customer exceed 2 GB during a
      billing cycle, they will receive an additional 1 GB of data for $10
      for use in the cycle.  Currently, 98 percent of AT&T smartphone
      customers use less than 2 GB of data a month on average.
  --  Tethering. Smartphone customers - including iPhone customers - who
      choose the DataPro plan have the option to add tethering for an
      additional $20 per month.  Tethering lets customers use their
      tethering-enabled smartphones as a modem to provide a broadband
      connection for laptop computers, netbooks or other computing devices.
      Tethering for iPhones will be available when Apple releases iPhone OS
      4 this summer.

With the new wireless data plans, pricing for a smartphone voice and data bundle now starts at just $54.99 per month for an individual plan, or $24.99 per month for an additional line on a FamilyTalk plan, $15 per month less than the price of the previous entry level bundle.

For new iPad customers, the $25 per month 2 GB plan will replace the existing $29.99 unlimited plan. iPad customers will continue to pre-pay for their wireless data plan and no contract is required. Existing iPad customers who have the $29.99 per month unlimited plan can keep that plan or switch to the new $25 per month plan with 2 GB of data.

Wi-Fi at 20,000 AT&T Hot Spots

The vast majority of smartphones that AT&T offers have built-in Wi-Fi, which lets the devices automatically switch from the wireless network to a Wi-Fi hotspot without prompting, making Wi-Fi even more convenient and easy to use. This enables customers to use Wi-Fi in the home, office and at public locations where available. Wi-Fi will generally provide consistently fast speeds and does not count against a customer's monthly data plan usage total. In addition, virtually all AT&T smartphone customers have access at no additional charge to more than 20,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots in the U.S. Customers can get more information on how to use Wi-Fi and find the location of AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots at http://www.att.com/wifiaccess.

Monitoring and Managing Usage

To help customers easily check their data usage, AT&T has made the information readily available in a number of ways***:

  --  Customer Text Notifications On Data Usage. When customers begin to
      approach their monthly usage limit, AT&T will send three text
      notifications - after they reach 65 percent, 90 percent and 100
      percent of the threshold.  Customers will also be sent emails if AT&T
      has their email address.
  --  Data Usage Monitoring. Additionally, customers with iPhones and other
      select devices can use the free AT&T myWireless application to check
      data usage. The application is available for download in several
      smartphone app stores. Also, AT&T customers can call *DATA# from their
      wireless phone to check their data usage for the current billing
      period. They receive a free text message with their usage information.
      Customers can also go online to http://www.att.com/wireless to see all of
      their usage information, past and present.
  --  Data Calculator. The easy-to-use online data calculator enables
      customers to estimate their mobile data usage and get a better sense
      for which data plan is right for them. It's located at
      http://www.att.com/datacalculator.

Customers can learn more about the new plans online at http://www.att.com/dataplans, by contacting AT&T customer service at 1-800-331-0500, or by visiting an AT&T retail store.

AT&T expects these new data plans to have minimal revenue impact this year and to not affect previous guidance for 2010.

*AT&T products and services are provided or offered by subsidiaries and affiliates of AT&T Inc. under the AT&T brand and not by AT&T Inc.

**Usage examples are estimates. Individual results will vary based upon customer's Internet usage patterns.

*** Customers will see their usage reflected in their tools generally within 15 hours or less of actual data usage.

Samsung and Ideaworks Partner to Open up Opportunity for Application Developers Across Samsung Apps

LONDON, June 2, 2010--     Samsung and Ideaworks are announcing an ongoing partnership to deliver a
range of application developer tools and content services. Initially, this
will comprise of Ideaworks adding SamsungApps support to the latest
incarnation of their native development Airplay Software Development Kit
(SDK). http://www.airplaysdk.com

    This first element of the partnership will offer significant benefits to
both application developers and Samsung mobile users alike. In the case of
developers, by adding Samsung Apps support this opens up opportunity on
Samsung platforms supported by Airplay. Developers can start with Airplay SDK
in advance of these phone launches so that applications that leverage their
unique capabilities hit the market at the same time as the devices.

    With Airplay, these new platforms can be addressed by a single binary of
an application, dramatically improving the economics of multi-platform
development. Airplay will attract new developers to SamsungApps' platforms,
offering more variety and creativity to the expanding SamsungApps portfolio
and, as a native platform, there are no compromises in performance so the
user experience is enhanced.

    For consumers, the partnership will allow the rapid migration of the
world's best applications to Samsung devices. This rich portfolio of
applications will create a more diverse and personal experience that will
engender a true bond with the Samsung handsets.

    With Airplay SDK allowing developers to use a 'One Push to Deploy'
approach across all platforms the economics of mobile application software
development begins to make sense.

    "Samsung's new mobile product line up is world class. Given the breadth
of choice that Samsung is offering to the market, it is imperative that the
needs of the developer are taken in to account.' stated Alex Caccia CEO of
Ideaworks 'By choosing Airplay, Samsung is enabling a single sales channel
through its SamsungApps program and a single development path across its
portfolio resulting in a better economic rationale for development of
applications.

to Samsung smart-phone users.

    Additionally, Samsung Smartphone users can take advantage of Kies
(pronounced "kids"), a free software download that allows users to browse,
search and purchase applications directly from their PC. Applications that
are downloaded using Kies will be installed onto the compatible device when
synced with the PC - providing instant backup of all application downloads.

Iridium Announces Comprehensive Plan for Next Generation Constellation

- Iridium Selects Thales Alenia Space to Design and Construct Satellites for Iridium NEXT - French Export Credit Agency Commits to Guarantee Substantially All of $1.8 Billion Credit Facility

MCLEAN, Va., June 2 -- Iridium Communications Inc. (NASDAQ:IRDM) today announced its comprehensive plan for funding, building and deploying its next-generation satellite constellation, Iridium NEXT.  Specifically, the Company announced the execution of a fixed price contract with Thales Alenia Space, a joint company between Thales (67%) and Finmeccanica (33%), for the design and construction of satellites for the Iridium NEXT constellation.  In addition, the company announced that Coface, the French export credit agency, has issued, for the account of the French State, a "Promise of Guarantee" which commits to cover 95% of the $1.8 billion credit facility for the project. The financing to be covered by the Coface guarantee is being syndicated through French and other major international banks and financial institutions and is expected to be completed this summer. The Coface guarantee commitment is not conditioned on Iridium raising any further debt or equity financing. Goldman, Sachs & Co., Societe Generale, and Hawkpoint Partners Limited continue to advise the Company in connection with the financing.

(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20100602/MM12941 )

Iridium's fixed price contract with Thales Alenia Space provides for the construction of the originally planned 72 operational satellites and in-orbit spares, plus an additional nine ground spares, which provide greater risk mitigation with respect to the new constellation. As a result of the expanded scope of the project, the total cost of Iridium NEXT, including all costs associated with development, manufacture and launch of the constellation, is now anticipated to be approximately $2.9 billion. In addition, Iridium has entered into an Authorization to Proceed (ATP), which allows Thales Alenia Space to commence work immediately on the development of satellites prior to completion of the financing, with the plan to commence the launch of the first satellites during the first quarter of 2015.

"Our announcement today exceeds our earlier expectations in every way," said Matt Desch, CEO of Iridium.  "We are very pleased with the completion of our comprehensive vendor selection process. We have a great partner in Thales Alenia Space, a world leader in satellite systems, who has developed a sophisticated satellite constellation that will allow us to seamlessly transition to an even more powerful network in the future.  In addition, the Coface guarantee enables Iridium to secure attractive and flexible low cost financing for the project. Based on the amount of this guarantee, we expect Iridium NEXT to be fully funded when the financing is finalized this summer. This is a critical step in maintaining our customers' and partners' confidence that Iridium will keep delivering innovative products and services globally through the coming decades."

"We are excited to be Iridium's lead supplier in the design and build-out of the Iridium NEXT constellation," said Reynald Seznec, CEO of Thales Alenia Space. "With our satellite design, Iridium will have a flexible platform for the delivery of existing and new services. As the prime contractor for Iridium NEXT, Thales Alenia Space is the undisputed leader in the design and manufacture of commercial LEO satellite communications systems. We will be supported by a broad consortium of world-class technical partners with extensive expertise in supporting critical missions of this scale and nature, and we expect 40 percent of the work for Iridium NEXT to be subcontracted to North America companies."

In conclusion, Desch noted, "Today marks a great milestone in Iridium's history.  We operate the world's only communications system that truly works everywhere in the world, with more than 359,000 subscribers.  By entering into the ATP to immediately begin building a complete next generation satellite system, and by securing export credit agency support of an amount sufficient to enable us to fully fund the project, we have completed critical steps in laying a strong foundation for Iridium's future.  Going forward we can focus all our energies on continuing to add new subscribers and working with our partners to deliver new products to serve our diverse subscriber base."
