CELLPOINT CONTINUES TO LEAD IN LOCATION SERVICES
Our EuroTel announcement Monday is particularly significant because EuroTel selected CellPoint after a formal tender process, also referred to as a Request for Quotation (RFQ), soliciting quotations from other companies marketing solutions for location services. In this case, there is no doubt that we went up against all the other companies in a head-to-head competition, and CellPoint won. CellPoint has recently responded to RFQ's from many GSM operators and we are confident that our bids for these opportunities will be well received. We will make every effort to keep our shareholders up-to-date with news of our progress.

Eurotel stated that one of the reasons they chose CellPoint was our open interfaces that make it possible for us to work with other positioning technologies and integrate other applications into our platform - we are future-proof. It is also one of the reasons we completely support the Location Interoperability Forum (LIF) initiative launced two weeks ago by Nokia, Ericsson and Motorola. This is what the LIF initiative is all about, something that CellPoint has been working toward for a long time. The moment Nokia and Ericsson approached us about this, we decided to join and support LIF, gaining membership with Nokia as our sponsors. So while at the Rome conference, Ericsson and Nokia could inform delegates that CellPoint was also supporting LIF. |
