Arc90's Flagship Product Brings New Collaboration Features, Outlook and SharePoint Integration and Expanded Mobility for Idea Management Initiatives

NEW YORK and BOSTON, May 4 -- Front End of Innovation US (Booth #25) -- Arc90, Inc., a leading provider of business technology tools and strategic consulting services, today announced the launch of the new version of Kindling, their flagship product, to drive unparallel collaboration throughout the enterprise. Integrating with Microsoft SharePoint and Outlook for enhanced communication, Kindling brings a new level of dialogue within enterprise environments. Committed to capturing ideas that occur outside of the office, Kindling Mobile, a new wireless platform, offers users a fast and easy-to-use solution that can be accessed from all Smartphone Web browsers. In addition to new capabilities with other platforms, Kindling now offers idea evolution and decision-maker workflow features to drive innovation through a refined user interface of the product.

"The core focus of Kindling is to enable innovation through collaboration to help good ideas become great ones," said Richard Ziade, President, Arc90. "As organizations look to their employees to identify opportunities for innovation, Kindling allows users to stay informed of the ideas and topics that are meaningful to them through Outlook and SharePoint, two of the most dominate systems in today's enterprise environment. To further innovation, Kindling Mobile offers a fast way for employees to collaborate on ideas wherever they are."

Microsoft Outlook and SharePoint Integration

With expanded integration with Outlook and SharePoint, users can now engage more actively with Kindling from strongly used applications within the enterprise. To drive enhanced collaboration, SharePoint administrators can configure Kindling's Web Part to integrate customized views and lists of ideas throughout SharePoint. With Kindling's integrated federated search, SharePoint users can find relevant ideas as results of their SharePoint queries. With unified authentication and single sign-on, SharePoint users can seamlessly move between SharePoint and Kindling without barriers to participation. Kindling brings the latest activity to Outlook in a non-obtrusive way within the application so that users can stay informed of ideas and topics relevant to them. With an industry-leading approach to bringing idea management directly into Outlook, Kindling allows users to submit new ideas and comment and vote on existing ones directly from their email client.

Kindling Mobile

As a strong channel to engage with users on the go, Kindling Mobile offers organizations the first mobile web-optimized idea management solution that can seamlessly capture ideas wherever they come to mind. With a clean and easy to use interface, Kindling Mobile offers one-click idea submission and easy access to the latest ideas and discussions happening on Kindling so that users can collaborate anywhere. Recognizing the diversity of Smartphones used for business, Kindling Mobile is built on web-standards for an engaging experience on any mobile Web browser. This approach allows device users to collaborate without any application download or IT integration requirements.

New User Interface with Idea Evolution

Dedicated to being the most engaging solution for idea management initiatives, Kindling now features a new user interface that requires zero-training for users and offers new features to promote collaboration. Aware that the best ideas grow through conversation, Kindling now offers expanded idea evolution opportunities for users to have private as well as public conversations to incorporate knowledge from throughout the organization. Users can now directly contact the author of an idea with specific edits and suggestions for change to their idea. This allows for collaborative editing of ideas while maintaining control with the idea creator.

Decision-maker Approval Workflow

Believing that successful idea management programs maintain a healthy balance of employee engagement and direction from management, Kindling offers Moderators the ability to have private discussions within idea Rooms. In these private conversations, decision-makers can discuss the direction of ideas as well as which ones should be identified for approval. New tools allow moderators to track key information, such as ROI, to asses which ideas are most feasible from a business perspective.

Existing clients look forward to utilizing the new enterprise features for Kindling.

"As an organization that seeks to effectively engage our workforce in idea sharing and collaboration, the latest features added to Kindling will help us keep employees active in the conversation," said Chris Forbes, President and CEO, Knovel Corporation. "At the management level, the new workflow tools provide dynamic new ways for decision makers to moderate the dialogue and effectively identify and approve the best ideas within our organization."

Kindling Mobile also earned strong feedback from clients engaging with the new offering.

Palisade Systems Delivers Next Generation Data Loss Prevention for the Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise

PacketSure 8.0 provides small and mid-sized enterprises unprecedented visibility into sensitive data within their organization

DES MOINES, Iowa, May 4 -- Palisade Systems, the leader In Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions for the small and medium-sized enterprise, today launched the latest version of its comprehensive data loss prevention solution - the easiest-to-use and fastest-deployed solution on the market. PacketSure 8.0 helps organizations keep data secure and in compliance with government regulations. PacketSure 8.0 is available as an appliance to customers requiring an on-site solution, or as a managed service from Palisade's Managed Service Provider partners.

Palisade's core customers in the healthcare, education, finance, and insurance industries need an easy DLP solution, where the information technology group can just flip the switch and begin preventing accidental data loss.

PacketSure 8.0 provides the features that busy network security managers need to see what is actually happening on their network. Dashboards keep network professionals informed of content violations, traffic trends, cases awaiting resolution, social trends and other information flows within the organization. PacketSure 8.0 gives IT managers powerful tools to structure the best network policies for their companies, using content, protocol, and web filtering.

With PacketSure 8.0, organizations are kept up-to-date on the latest government compliance rules and regulations. Like prior versions, PacketSure 8.0 has certified interoperability with the Cisco IronPort S-Series Web Security Appliance (WSA), integration with Oracle's Content Access software, and uses Voltage Security for tighter encryption integration.

"The small and medium-sized enterprise continues to grow and invest in its long-term security, including data loss prevention solutions. But these groups have different needs than larger enterprises. Those needs are only met with a solution built specifically with smaller enterprises in mind," said Christian Renaud, president and CEO, Palisade Systems. "PacketSure is built for these businesses and industries. It's an easily deployed solution with the reporting and management needed to keep data secure and prevent loss."

PacketSure 8.0 Brings the Tools Needed for Premiere DLP Solutions

PacketSure 8.0 brings a new set of tools to the already-robust PacketSure DLP solution, including:

  --  Contextual Analysis of traffic patterns within an organization
      provides network managers the background they need to inform their
      remediation decisions. Flexible social graphs of SMTP traffic enables
      customers to determine where incidents originate, and other areas for
      concern.
  --  The Network Dashboard is an inclusive, one-stop widget for network
      intelligence. The new dashboard is fully customizable for each user,
      includes protocol, web and content filtering statistics, short- and
      long-term tracking, as well as customizable widgets.
  --  Case Management includes integrated incident and case tracking,
      including multiple cases per incident and multiple incidents per case,
      with the ability to assign owners based on departments and roles
      within the organization.
  --  Enhanced Reports Engine with fully customizable reports and an
      extensive library of report templates allowing for integration with
      protocols, Web and content. The report engine also integrates the new
      contextual analysis, and can be used as a separate module or within
      the new Network Dashboard.

  PacketSure 8.0 Testimonials

PacketSure 8.0 is already deployed to current customers, and has been winning accolades:

  --  "We are charged with keeping our students' data secure. We've been
      long-standing customers of Palisade Systems, and when we went looking
      for a new data loss prevention system, at the end of the day we knew
      we would stick with PacketSure. The latest version's contextual
      analysis and reports keep us on top of data, and help us stay on top
      of FERPA compliance." -- Stephen Stiles, CTO, El Paso Independent
      School District

Vycom Launches New Web Site to Organize New Product Categories and Streamline Purchasing for Customers

SCRANTON, Pa., May 4 -- Vycom, a division of CPG International, has launched a new Web site at http://www.vycomplastics.com/ to clearly define its growing product families and help customers streamline their buying efforts. Vycom is a world leader in Olefin and PVC solutions for a vast number of industries, such as graphic and display, marine, playground/recreation and food processing as well as fire, chemical and corrosion resistant materials.

According to Don Wharton, President of Vycom, the new site will help the company manage its rapid growth by showing its broad product offerings, industry applications and essential data about each of the six product families, which include:

  --  Celtec® graphic/display boards for inside and outdoor applications
  --  Flametec® clean room and semiconductor fire safe materials
  --  Seaboard® outdoor furniture and marine components
  --  Corrtec® chemical and corrosion resistant materials
  --  Playboard® sheet for modular recreational and playground systems
  --  Sanatec® food processing and cutting board materials

These distinct product "families" as Vycom defines them, serve a diverse mix of markets, yet have a common thread of manufacturing leadership and operational flexibility, such as consolidation of purchase orders and shipments across product families.

"You can now see on our home page that Vycom is a one-stop resource for all of your olefin and PVC needs, making our products easy to identify and easy to buy," said Wharton.

The new site lists key benefits of each product family and shows profiles, sizes, colors and finishes with illustrated graphics. It also provides downloadable pdfs with marketing, technical specs and MSDS information.  A News section will contain new company announcements and trade shows. To assist in purchasing, the site also has a Distributor Locator, by zip code.

"Along with being intuitive and visually appealing, Vycom's new Web site is another step in streamlining processes to serve our end users," said Wharton.  "As our customers find new venues for their products, we are evolving right along with them, with more product offerings and more convenient ways to do business."

In keeping with Vycom's mantra of being a place where quality meets performance, the new site truly brings to light the wide selection of highly engineered products, capacity, availability, convenient shopping experience and attentive customer service.  For more information, visit http://www.vycomplastics.com/.

The iCap(R) MP3 System from Gesten Technologies Is the Safe Alternative to Earbuds for Active Music Lovers

LAKE WORTH, Fla., May 4 -- Active people looking for a safer way to listen to their favorite tunes on-the-go will benefit from a patented new portable music system called The iCap. This unique MP3 player with speakers allows users to listen to music and still hear all the traffic hazards and interact with the people around them. The MSRP of The iCap system is $99.95, and it is available now for purchase at http://www.icapmp3.com/.

The iCap® is the most convenient and the only safe way to listen to music while walking, jogging, hiking, skating, skateboarding, riding bicycles or motorcycles, on the job, or while doing home improvement projects. The featherweight music system snaps under the brim of our included baseball cap, and also detaches to become a mini boom box that clips on to belts, backpacks, and other caps.

The iCap® is completely wireless, with no more annoying headphone wires. The super stereo sound from the built-in speakers can be played low enough for private listening, or cranked loud enough to share with others. Worn backwards, the iCap® sounds even better, and fits under standard bicycle helmets, hard hats, and shorty motorcycle helmets.

"Earbud use has been directly linked to long-term hearing damage, and they create an isolation which leaves users vulnerably oblivious to their surroundings," says inventor Jeffrey Gesten. "The iCap solves all those health and safety problems, and still allows you to enjoy your favorite tunes anywhere and anytime."

The iCap® system consists of a 2GB MP3 player, an FM tuner, a Voice Recorder, the SRS WOW® digital surround sound chip, 2 stereo speakers, a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery, and our custom pro-style sports cap.  The iCap® contains a Micro SD card slot for expanded memory and for playing the new Slot Music media format. The iCap® makes the perfect gift for any music lover, and private labeling is available.

Webroot Adds Vulnerability Scanning to Cloud-Based Web Security Service

New Features Enhance Cloud-based Web Security Service from Antispyware Pioneer

BOULDER, Colo., May 4 -- Webroot, a leading provider of Internet security for the consumer, enterprise and SMB markets, today introduced the industry's first vulnerability scanner delivered in the cloud as part of a Web security software-as-a-service (SaaS) model. The new service offers weekly and monthly tests for more than 400 common vulnerabilities found in the operating system, Web browsers, browser plug-ins, Microsoft Office and its components, media players, instant messaging software and various third-party solutions - the most common ways Web-based malware is delivered to business and consumer computers.

The new feature is included in the Webroot® Web Security Service. By inspecting applications and analyzing them via the cloud, the Webroot service can automatically and efficiently identify threats and vulnerabilities as well as identify missing patches. The service is linked to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) National Vulnerability Database, ensuring the latest threats are included in the scan.

"Having vulnerability scanning added to the award-winning Webroot Web Security Service is a real winner," said Bob Stevens, owner and president, Blended Systems, a Webroot channel partner in metro Atlanta. "I can now offer an even more effective tool to customers with no impact on user performance."

Also included in the update is a new layer of antispyware detection. In addition to monitoring outbound traffic from a system, Webroot now automatically analyzes the processes running on the user's computer. This additional layer of protection ensures that threats are identified before they have a chance to spread. The service tests for more than 3,500 known malicious programs today and is continually updated for the latest threats.

Webroot's vulnerability scanning takes less than 15 seconds and leverages the cloud for up-to-date vulnerabilities and spyware definitions to help ensure endpoints are secure. Focusing on the programs most susceptible to malicious attacks, a lightweight scan at the endpoint uploads process information to the cloud, where Webroot identifies vulnerabilities and centralizes results in a Web-based management portal. Administrators can search and sort by machine, user, type of scan and number of vulnerabilities and then drill down to view information about each machine or threat.

"Organizations are finding that vulnerability assessments that are mired on the desktop are becoming more burdensome and less effective," said Gerhard Eschelbeck, chief technology officer, Webroot. "Leveraging the cloud, we're enabling organizations to aggressively monitor their IT infrastructure without worrying about its affect on user productivity, and with much better protection than traditional solutions."

This addition to the Webroot Web Security Service is now available through Webroot channel partners as well as to direct customers.

Comcast Launches High-Speed Wireless Data Service in Boston

High-Speed 2go(TM) Enables Consumers to Access the Internet Anytime

BOSTON, May 4 -- Comcast, one of the nation's leading providers of entertainment, information and communications products and services, today announced the launch of its high-speed wireless data service in Boston, as the company continues its nationwide rollout of High-Speed 2go(TM).

In its initial offering, Comcast's High-Speed 2go is a third-generation or 3G wireless high-speed data service that provides nationwide wireless Internet service via wireless data cards.  Comcast is now offering this wireless service bundled with one or more of its popular XFINITY Internet, XFINITY TV or XFINITY Voice products, providing mobile broadband where ever and whenever customers need to be connected.  Later in the year, Comcast will offer a 4G High-Speed 2go product delivered via the Clearwire network in the Boston market.

"We are thrilled to now offer our wireless High-Speed 2go service to our busy, on-the-move Boston area customers so they can access the Internet from anywhere, anytime," said Steve Hackley, Senior Vice President for Comcast's Greater Boston Region.  "Whether it's XFINITY TV, Internet, Voice and now High-Speed 2go, Comcast continues to drive innovation throughout the Boston area to deliver more access, more convenience and more choice for our customers."

For the first time, consumers will have bundled access to both blazing fast wired download speeds and wireless Internet sold together as a "Fast Pack."  The Fast Pack Nationwide 3G service includes XFINITY Internet service for the home with speeds up to 12Mbps, a free WiFi router for mobility and extended coverage in the home and nationwide 3G mobile network access.  The Fast Pack Nationwide bundle is available starting at the introductory price of $54.99 per month for 12 months.  Customers who already subscribe to XFINITY Internet will be able to sign up for High-Speed 2go Nationwide 3G service for as low as $40 per month.

The world-class services Comcast is known for in the home are beginning to be extended to where consumers work, live and play.  High-speed mobile Internet is one of the first products consumers want as a natural extension of Comcast's super fast wired high-speed XFINITY Internet.

Comcast is selling wireless data services following its investment in Clearwire in November 2008.  Comcast's 3G service in Boston operates on Sprint's national 3G network.  Its 4G service, set to roll out in Boston later this year, will be delivered via the Clearwire network.  Comcast is one of the first investors in Clearwire to bring a service to market and expects that it will continue to add value to existing bundled products.

"We launched GamePoints.com to empower online gamers with ways to earn virtual currency for free rather than having to pay for it, and to give them the choice of spending that currency wherever they'd like within our vast network."

At launch, consumers have thousands of options for acquiring Game Points, including:

  --  Shopping: Earn 2 - 30% of the total purchase price when shopping at

      camcorders and other electronics through Gazelle.
  --  Purchase Music or Movie Tickets: Purchase tickets to movies currently

  --  Direct Payments: Purchase virtual currency directly - often at
      discounted rates - through a number of cash payment options, including
      credit cards, e-wallets, pre-paid debit cards, mobile billing and
      more.

For game developers and social publishers, Offerpal Media's alternative payment platform is already the industry's leading solution for in-game virtual currency monetization. Through GamePoints.com, Offerpal now helps game developers capture revenue outside of their application or web site as well. At the same time, GamePoints.com represents a powerful new marketing channel for advertisers and marketers looking to conduct targeted brand building and customer acquisition campaigns. Placement is available in a wide variety of ad formats and on pay-for-performance or engagement-based pricing models.

At launch, participating gaming applications include Zynga's FarmVille, YoVille, Zynga Poker, Mafia Wars, Cafe World, PetVille, FishVille, Vampire Wars and others; Playdom's Mobsters, Sorority Life, Social City, Tiki Resort and others; Digital Chocolate's MMA Pro Fighter; HitGrab's Mousehunt; TheBroth's Barn Buddy; Tall Tree Game's Fish World; K-Factor Media's Castle Age; Tree Room's My Town; Apps-O-Rama's Car Madness; Offbeat Creations' Be a Tycoon; BitRhymes' The Warlords; Five Minutes' Happy Farm; and many others.

EU Decision-Makers Given Practical Plan for Achieving Competitiveness in Digital Age

BRUSSELS, May 4, 2010--     "Digital technologies are critical enablers of sustainable growth,
innovation and employment in the modern European economy," states a new
report launched today by DIGITALEUROPE.

    "Forty per cent of productivity growth in Europe is made possible by
interaction between information technology and communications capabilities
with industry, services and public sector activities; this figure can grow
exponentially as we move out of the recession if ICT is adopted more
broadly," states Bridget Cosgrave, Director-General DIGITALEUROPE.

    European competitiveness and prosperity in the global digital age is
inextricably linked to a dynamic ICT sector says DIGITALEUROPE's 'Vision
2020: A Transformation Agenda for the Digital Age.'

    The achievement of a European Digital Single Market lies at the heart of
European future competitiveness, points out Erkki Ormala, President of
DIGITALEUROPE. "At least four per cent additional GDP (EU27) can be gained by
stimulating further adoption of ICT and digital services through the creation
of a Digital Single Market. We must remedy our market's fragmentation."

    Digital technologies play a strategic role in creating growth
opportunities for domestic and export growth opportunities for manufacturing,
services, environmental and cultural industries. "The digital industry is
taking a proactive approach to identify quick wins, which demonstrates our
ability to enable competitiveness and sustainability in other sectors across
Europe," Cosgrave adds.

    DIGITALEUROPE's report delivers a clear message from technology
thought-leaders to EU decision-makers on the essential building blocks
required for Europe's future competitiveness.

    "Europe must invest in infrastructure enabling Next-Generation Networks
and Services to flourish - Internet everywhere is essential," adds Cosgrave
who also points to the need for Europe to be host and home to a healthy ICT
R&D sector. "We should be boosting R&D expenditure to a minimum of three per
cent of EU GDP by 2015 to stay ahead of the game."

    "Europe's ICT sector represents more than six million employees - these
figures are likely to jump in the coming three to five years as an expected
ninety per cent of all jobs by 2015 require ICT skills. Job creation for by
the sector is expected to exceed 300,000 new jobs in the next five years. Our
young generation need e-Skills to be assured of future employability."

SonicWALL Brings Web Application Firewall Service to SMB Market

New SSL VPN Solution Helps SMBs Defend Against Diverse, Web-Based Threats

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 4 -- SonicWALL, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNWL), a leading secure network infrastructure company, today announced its SonicWALL SSL VPN 4.0 firmware release, bringing key new features to small- to mid-sized businesses (SMBs), including Web Application Firewall, Virtual Assist and simplified unified policy. SonicWALL remains committed to bringing sophisticated security capabilities to SMBs, and doing so within their budgets. The release of SonicWALL's 4.0 firmware update enhances the SonicWALL SSL VPN product line, providing users with easy-to-use, flexible and innovative technology that provides secure corporate network access for distributed workforces.

Companies of all sizes need to provide secure network access to employees, customers and partners, no matter where the parties are located. This need is exacerbated by the proliferation of Web-based applications, as the Internet's role as a critical platform for businesses and consumers has also made it a new threat vector of choice - and Web-based attacks are rising at an alarming rate. Designed to enable controlled network access for a distributed workforce, SonicWALL SSL VPN 4.0 is a cost-effective solution providing ease-of-management, and its Web Application Firewall detects and protects Web applications - including the SSL VPN appliance itself - from the latest Web-based attacks. In addition to helping to secure the corporate network, SonicWALL's SSL VPN 4.0 firmware upgrade also helps organizations benefit from the elimination of deployment and ongoing maintenance costs.

"Over the past four years SonicWALL has provided industry-leading SSL VPN remote access solutions to organizations of all sizes, allowing SMBs to enjoy the same features and capabilities as larger enterprises," said Matthew Dieckman, Product Line Manager at SonicWALL. "SonicWALL's new SSL VPN 4.0 is a milestone release that captures the benefits of our latest SSL VPN platforms and sets the stage for innovation in secure remote access for years to come. Our SSL VPN technology now provides SMBs with optimal control, flexibility and functionality at a price point that doesn't compromise their budgets."

The SonicWALL SSL VPN 4.0 firmware upgrade, available for the SSL VPN 2000, SSL VPN 4000 and Secure Remote Access (SRA) 4200 appliances, includes the following new features:

  --  Web Application Firewall: a new subscription-based service that
      employs a dynamically updated signature database to protect against
      modern, Web-based threats. With the 4.0 release, the Web Application
      Firewall moves from a technology preview feature to a fully supported
      and licensable feature, that detects and protects Web applications
      from Web-based attacks - thereby reducing  potential losses while
      complying with  data protection compliance mandates.
  --  Virtual Assist: allows users to access their personal computers
      located outside the LAN of the SRA appliance. By installing the
      application on a Windows PC with Internet access, that computer
      becomes available for users access to view the desktop and have
      mouse/keyboard control (Windows only).
  --  NetExtender Re-architecture: the Windows NetExtender client has been
      redesigned with a new look and feel. The underlying technology now
      implements a custom-dialer that allows it to be launched from the
      Windows "Network Connections" menu. This user interface
      standardization across all SSL VPN clients creates a unified look and
      feel and the new technology supports domain login scripts.
  --  SNMP Support: SonicWALL SSL VPN devices will support Simple Network
      Management Protocol (SNMP) which will report remote access statistics.
      This feature facilitates network management for administrators as they
      can leverage standardized reporting tools.
  --  Unified Policy: all granular bookmarks and policies are now displayed
      on a single page, providing for a single place to manage all SSL VPN
      policies. This capability reduces the administrative overhead in
      configuring and troubleshooting policies in multiple locations.

Beyond Commerce, Inc. Announces Letter of Intent to Acquire AdJuice, Inc.

Leading Online Ad Network and Lead Generation Company Brings Unmatched Consumer Products, Programs and Services

HENDERSON, Nev., May 4 -- Beyond Commerce, Inc. (http://www.beyondcommerce.com)  (BULLETIN BOARD: BYOC)  today announced signing a Letter of Intent to acquire AdJuice, Inc. (http://www.adjuice.com). The Board of Directors of both companies have approved the acquisition and the transaction is anticipated to close within the next 10 business days.

AdJuice, Inc. is a leading online Advertising Network and Lead Generation company with over 22 million registered users, 700 affiliates and 350 retail clients in six major industries. AdJuice offers sales leads for debt companies, auto warranty companies, auto dealers, banks and insurance companies.

The unique AdJuice operating system and process of generating online consumer requests for services uses its proprietary technology and dedicated call center, providing a premium service that consistently commands some of the highest rates for leads sold in the respective industries. AdJuice is supported by more than $7 million invested in developing the Company's proprietary technology.

"We look forward to joining Beyond Commerce," states Matt Hill, CEO and Founder of AdJuice. "Our company will act as a hub for future acquisitions and we feel this is the right time in the market for great companies and smart people to join forces under one roof to produce unmatched consumer products, programs and services."

"This is just the beginning of what will be a remarkable journey of growth for the company," adds Hill.

Today, the Internet accounts for approximately 20 percent of overall media consumption in the United States; however, advertisers now invest only 7.5 percent of their budget online. Therefore there is tremendous upside potential for marketplace growth as advertisers steadily bridge the gap.

As a result, by 2011, nearly 25 percent of all media consumption will be online, drawing 15 percent of total advertising dollars. The online advertising market is expected to reach $50.3 billion in revenue by 2011 in the U.S. alone; more than doubling 2007 levels and growing an anticipated 24 percent annually (source the Yankee Group) as brands increase online ad expenditures and publishers improve ad targeting, inventory and yield management.

"To capitalize on this vast opportunity, Beyond Commerce has repositioned itself into a media company and a technology e-commerce platform provider," states Beyond Commerce CEO, Robert McNulty. "We are currently in discussions with other media companies as well...in the ad networking, online advertising and local advertising space industries...which are also viewed as potential acquisitions."

"We believe these market segments, individually and collectively, are extremely fragmented," Mr. McNulty concludes, "and they offer tremendous unlimited growth opportunity for a roll-up strategy."

LCD With Memory Effect

NEU-ISENBURG, Germany, May 4, 2010--     The development of a HVGA 4.45" (113.03mm) LCD, providing an optical
storage effect that builds on Nemoptic's BiNem technology, is presently in
progress at Seiko Instruments Inc. (SII) development departments.

    Simultaneously has the sales of another LCD, SA005, utilizing this
bistable BiNem memory effect been started since it is already in running
production. This displays dimensions are 2.53" (64.26mm) with a resolution of
240x86 dots.

    BiNem is an abbreviation of "Bistable Nematic", a functional principle
that extends the known LCD technologies by an additional stable state that
will be retained without the necessity of permanently applied electrical
power and still produce a superior image quality. Instead of permanently
applied electric driving signals as used in traditional LCD, the BiNem liquid
crystals change their orientation on the application of electric pulse and
remain in that new orientation until another electric pulse will change and
twist them back again. This denotes that only for changes of the displays
content pulsed electric energy is momentarily required.

    Seiko Instruments Inc., as a leading LCD manufacturer, has developed
highly sophisticated technologies that empower uniform quality control of LC
cells.

    Expecting a strong demand growth for Electronic Shelf Label (ESL) systems
in retail markets and e-book markets replacing paper, SII is to sell its
products and expand sales volumes utilizing its network of global affiliates
and distributors using its well developed sales know-how.

Technology Re-invigorates a Classic

CAMBRIDGE, England, May 4, 2010--     Ever since education and learning guru Marc Prensky coined the term
'Digital Natives', there has been increased understanding of the different
tools that the next generation will need to learn languages.

    Does this mean that gone are the days of the dog-eared textbook, replaced
with ever more slick and shiny technology on mobile phones, PCs and iPods? Is
toiling over grammar exercises with pen and paper a thing of the past,
trumped by the press of a button or flick of a key?

    Language-learning software developer Rosetta Stone estimates that more
than 50 per cent of language teachers now use learning technology in lessons,
with the majority integrating conventional learning techniques with virtual
learning both within and beyond the classroom.

    So how much is technology shaping how we learn languages and does it
spell the death of the language text book? And even the language teacher?

    As English Grammar in Use launches itself into the digital world with two
new applications for the iPhone and iPod Touch, some experts on the use of
new media in English language learning ponder on the changes of recent years
and make their predictions for the future.

    Educational Technologist and co-founder of NetLearn Languages, the
world's first live online language school, Eric Baber takes a pragmatic view:

    "A shift from paper to electronic core materials will happen gradually as
individual markets become more high-tech, but it's much too early to predict
the death of the coursebook. We need to look at the realities of how teachers
and students actually work. For students to be able to access material
digitally, they all need to have their own electronic devices (laptops,
netbooks, ebook readers, whatever). Globally speaking, especially in poorer
parts of the world, this isn't going to be particularly widespread anytime
soon. In poorer areas, paper-based textbooks will persist for some time yet.

    "Then there's the teacher-factor. Like it or not, many teachers aren't
hugely interested in putting together a bespoke set of digital materials for
each class every day. They like having a clear learning path with related
materials mapped out for them and their students from the beginning to the
end of school year. Most teachers will prefer it if they can work with one
piece of content, and that's still overwhelmingly the textbook, supplemented
here and there with digital add-ons."

    Which is precisely the approach that the English Grammar in Use package
now offers. Produced in 1984, long before the rise and rise of the mobile
phones, PCs and other new media, English Grammar in Use has remained faithful
to the textbook tradition while also moving with the times. Its 2004 CD-ROM
was considered ground-breaking in the arena of ELT publishing. The new
applications of the Grammar for iPhone and iPod launched this year have yet
to be tested by the market. However, Nora McDonald, Development Editor for
the Cambridge University Press' ELT Grammar Team, is confident the content
will stand the test of transferral to modern media.

    "The English Grammar in Use products on different platforms will
supplement the book, which is unlikely to be usurped for some time, and allow
students to study English Grammar in Use on the bus via their phone, in class
using an interactive whiteboard, and at home on their computer. This will
give them greater flexibility about when and where they want to learn. The
new applications for English Grammar in Use will reinvigorate a classic
already much loved by generations of language learners around the world and
bring it up-to-date with the expectations of the new generation of learners
who expect to be able to learn both through traditional texts and new
technology like their mobile phones and iPods. "

    This use of technology to supplement, not usurp the textbook and the
teacher, has the support of language education expert Dr Stephen Bax from the
Centre for Research in English Language Learning and Assessment at the
University of Bedfordshire. Dr Bax coined what he terms the 'omnipotence
fallacy' - the expectation that technology will take over, making teachers
and traditional tools like grammars redundant.

    Dr Bax said: "In one newspaper I read of whiteboards 'not only allowing
young students access to the curriculum but also simultaneously teaching them
the English language'. This silly suggestion perfectly illustrates the
'omnipotence fallacy'. It seems that whenever a new technology comes into
education someone jumps up to suggest that it will somehow do the whole job
magically on its own, without the need for that always painful and
troublesome element, the teachers.

    "Another article worries that 'interactive whiteboards have had little or
no impact on exam results' - again typical of the 'omnipotence fallacy' in
its foolish assumption that if the technology does not revolutionise all
aspects of learning it is not worth having. Do pens noticeably 'impact on
exam results'? Do we therefore throw them out? A technology is useful when it
has found its proper place, neither omnipotent nor terrifying, but
normalised."

    Notes for Editors

    1. Grammar celebrations

    To celebrate turning 25, the Grammar is appearing in an elegant silver

Executive Protection, Lone Worker and Traveler Safety

SELSEY, England, May 4, 2010--     Trango (specialists in supporting lone workers and travelers especially
but not exclusively in high risk, remote areas of the world) have just
released their new GPRS 'Trango Tracking' software and secure web based GIS
platform for GPS enabled Blackberry Mobile Phones. It is a very feature rich,
world class application which can be easily installed on a Blackberry. It
comes with access to a secure GIS platform to view your profile and tracking
results. This new software includes:

   
    - The ability to set tracking at any interval you wish (and
      have on option to switch it off if necessary)
    - A 'Red Alert' panic alarm that sends your position and opens a
      voice channel with Trango Operations
    - An 'Amber Alert' that sends your position to Trango Operations.
      This can be used in a number of different ways for example to indicate
      'concern' and that you require following closely for the next short
      period and / or can be used to indicate entering buildings /
      underground where GPS coverage may not be very good.
    - A count down timer that will automatically send an alert after an
      interval chosen by you unless cancelled.
    - An option to allow Trango Ops to covertly dial in to the phone
      and listen if there is a suspicion that you have been kidnapped /
      abducted.

    Of course it is the 24 hour service and support behind this application
that makes the real difference. Different levels of service are available up
to and including full use of Trango's Safe Travel System (TSTS) - an
enterprise wide safe travel management system integrated with the Global
Distribution System (GDS) used by travel agencies. Trango Tracking combined
with TSTS sets a new standard in corporate governance and duty of care for
lone workers / travelers, especially but not exclusively those in remote high
risk areas of the world.

    If you do not have a Blackberry and / or need support in outside of
mobile phone coverage, Trango has a wide variety of GSM, GPRS and satellite
solutions that we can offer including the new Iridium Shout which for the
first time provides satellite tracking small enough to carry (its just a bit
bigger than a mobile phone).

New Voiceclip 604 Bluetooth Headset from i.Tech Dynamic Boasts In-Line Microphone and Magnetized Earpiece for Enhanced Audio Quality and Call Management

HONG KONG, May 4, 2010--

    i.Tech Dynamic today introduced the VoiceClip 604, a stylish Bluetooth
headset that features an in-line microphone and magnetized earpiece.

    (Logo:  http://www.prnasia.com/sa/2009/09/02/200909021619.jpg )

    VoiceClip 604's unique clip design enables the base unit to be affixed to
the user's clothing. An attached cord connects the earpiece and includes an
in-line microphone. The microphone's positioning close to the user's mouth
enhances voice quality and reception.

    In addition, the base unit and earpiece are magnetized, so they stick
together when the user is not on a call, which prevents the earpiece from
dangling.

    The device is exceptionally easy to use. The multifunction button is
located on the microphone casing. The embossed spot on it facilitates users
to direct the microphone to the mouth when conducting the phone call. The
button is also used to turn the unit on and off, pair the headset with other
devices, and answer and end calls.

    VoiceClip 604's clip design is especially appealing for users who find
over-the-ear headsets uncomfortable or prefer not to wear an earpiece when
not using it. The design also reduces the chance that calls will be missed
because a buzzer alerts users to incoming calls and the clip keeps the unit
within easy reach, even when it's not in use.

    "The clip design is perfect for people who need a Bluetooth headset, but
don't want it in their ears all the time or have to dig it out of a briefcase
or handbag for every call," said Wendy Cho, managing director, i.Tech Dynamic
Ltd.

    To tie in with hot tides of coming world cup event, VoiceClip 604 comes
with 2 versions of complimentary stickers for users to pick up their
admirable winning team.

    Other features and specifications include:

   
    -- Bluetooth Version 2.1 + EDR Class 2
    -- Headset and hands-free Bluetooth profiles
    -- Micro-USB charging connector
    -- True multipoint for connecting with 2 phones
    -- 3 modes buzzer alert for choice
    -- Volume adjust, call transfer, call reject
    -- Range:         Up to 33 feet
    -- Charge time:   Less than 3 hours
    -- Talk time:     Up to 8 hours
    -- Standby time:  Up to 6-7 days
    -- Dimensions:    1.89 (L) x 0.77 (W) x 0.39 (T) inches/
                      48 (L) x 19.5 (W) x 10 (H) mm
    -- Weight:        0.51 ounces/ 14.6 grams

AMSTERDAM, May 4, 2010--

    - MIPS(R) Cores Provide Reliability and Real-time Response Needed for
Automotive Applications

    MIPS Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: MIPS), a leading
provider of industry-standard processor architectures and cores for digital
consumer, home networking, wireless, communications and business
applications, announced today that Mobileye, the global pioneer and leader in
vision-based collision prevention systems, licensed its multi-threaded
multiprocessing MIPS32(R) 1004K(TM) Coherent Processing System (CPS).
Mobileye will incorporate the 1004K CPS in its next generation EyeQ(TM)
vision-based SoC for use in driver assistance systems. Mobileye already uses
multi-threaded MIPS32 34K(TM) cores in its current generation EyeQ2(TM) SoC.
Development of the third generation SoC will begin immediately.

    According to Ziv Aviram, CEO, Mobileye, "We are having great success
using MIPS in our EyeQ2(TM) product, which has been adopted by several
top-tier suppliers and car manufacturers. We are pleased to reaffirm our
commitment to MIPS for our next generation product. The EyeQ3(TM) will be the

pedestrian detection, intelligent headlight control and traffic sign
recognition.

    About the MIPS32 1004K CPS

    The 1004K Coherent Processing System (CPS) is the industry's first
multi-threaded multiprocessor IP core. Incorporating multi-threading in each
core in a coherent multi-core architecture enables the 1004K multiprocessor
to surpass the performance of multi-core systems based on single-threaded
processor cores. This performance boost essentially is "free" in both
hardware and software, as the additional hardware threads in the cores are
minimal in size relative to a typical SoC design, and multi-threading makes
use of the same Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) versions of operating systems
and software programming models as coherent multi-core platforms. Leveraging
the multi-threading capability, the 1004K CPS achieves over 2.9 Coremark/MHz
per core, putting it among the highest scores available in the database of
tested cores on the Coremark.org website. Couple this performance with the
small size and low-power implementation, and the 1004K series provides one of
the most performance/power efficient solutions in the industry.

    About Mobileye N.V.

    Mobileye N.V. is headquartered in The Netherlands, with R&D facilities in
Israel and offices in the U.S., Cyprus and Japan. Mobileye is a technological
leader in the area of advanced image sensing and processing technology for
automotive applications, with a product offering covering the entire range of
