LAS VEGAS -- Divio Inc. announced today at the Consumer Electronics Show
that its single-chip camera solution now contains Microsoft Windows CE driver
support to enable next-generation video applications.

Divio, of Sunnyvale, Calif., partnered with software developer 3Di Inc. Divio's
NW80X single-chip solution delivers high-quality video over Universal Serial Bus
connections to Windows CE, PC and Apple Macintosh systems. The 3Di driver
bridges the high-resolution video from Divio NW80X-driven eyeball cameras directly
to USB-enabled CE devices.

Windows CE is powering new solutions outside of traditional computing
application, and Divio and 3Di are providing a new class of on-the-fly imaging
solutions aimed at real restate, automotive, insurance, handheld, gaming law
enforcement, and other industries that can benefit from truly portable, high-quality
computer video.

Isaac van Kempen, vice president of marketing at Divio, noted thatsupport for USB
connections will become the effective standard in next-generation Windows CE
devices.

"Sharp, Hewlett-Packard and several other firms already ship 'Palm PCs' with
USB support," he commented. "As USB support becomes pervasive over the next
six months, demand for inexpensive, NW80X-based cameras will increase as
CE-solutions proliferate and as new applications for video emerge."

"Imaging isn't tied to traditional computing any longer," added Rajiv Desai,
president and CEO at 3Di, based in Brea, Calif. "CE is driving next-generation
solutions that will change the way people move and interact throughout their day.
The Divio and 3Di solution adds value to CE by bridging high-resolution video
through standard USB ports, creating new opportunities for video-enabled CE
appliances."
