CHAIRMAN'S WELCOME

<<<Dear Attendants,

Only a few weeks to go until the 108th AES Convention opens its doors to pro-audio specialists from around the world. With an extensive Convention Program and Equipment Exhibition, the first AES event of the new millennium will present technologies and ideas, both established and visionary. This Paris Convention is the ideal location to help guide you through the latest trends and technological changes.

The turn of the millennium heralds groundbreaking innovations in the pro-audio sector. Multichannel audio, for example, seems as important a breakthrough as was the introduction of stereo. After a long period of technical fine-tuning, we are faced with the basic aesthetic and artistic questions, and once again the AES is there to help you make the right choices.

For over 50 years, the AES and its Conventions have been the link within the international audio community: a forum for exchange of new ideas. At the dawn of the new millennium and the age of globalisation, the role of the AES will be more important than ever before.

As Chairman, and on behalf of the 108th Convention Committee, I am very pleased to announce an exhaustive Convention Program: 19 paper sessions that include over 100 papers, many technical tours and 15 challenging workshops, providing a framework for professional fact-finding on the highest level.

The student activities too will be more intense than ever before, thus contributing to the AES Convention's recognition throughout the world as a major platform for future generations of audio engineers.>>>

Intel and PacketVideo Complete
StrongARM Optimized Wireless
Multimedia Decoder


<<<Companies Continue Collaboration to Deliver
Optimized 3G-324M Solution

PALM SPRINGS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 14, 2000--Intel Corporation and PacketVideo
Corporation today announced that they have completed the optimization of PacketVideo's PV Player
MPEG-4 decoding software for the Intel© StrongARM© SA-1110 processor.

This development is the first step toward highly optimized multimedia solutions, including a 3G-324M
implementation, on the StrongARM processor family. The 3G-324M implementation is dedicated to the
2-way communication of real-time video and audio over future mobile networks.

PacketVideo's decoding software will be demonstrated at the Intel Developer Forum. Intel's
StrongARM technology delivers the high performance, low power consumption and small footprint ideal
for new classes of handheld products. PacketVideo's MPEG-4 compliant software enables people to
access video and audio content on these devices, such as wireless phones and handheld computers.

``Intel's StrongARM high performance and low power technology enables a wide array of exciting
wireless multimedia applications,' said Mark Casey, marketing director for Intel's Handheld Computing
Division. ``StrongARM applications, such as the cooperatively optimized PV player, are an important
part of our strategy for the rapidly growing portable appliance market segment.'

``Intel is clearly committed to expanding on the success of its StrongARM technology in new and
emerging market segments such as handheld computing and next-generation wireless phones,' said
PacketVideo's co-founder and president Dr. James Brailean. ``We are pleased to be working together
to make wireless multimedia a reality, providing end users with greater mobility and access to
information than ever before.'

PacketVideo's MPEG-4 compliant software enables people to access video and audio content on their
wireless phones and handheld computers. PacketVideo is the first company to provide high-quality
video over existing wireless networks, speeding the arrival of anytime, anywhere multimedia and
Internet access. With the PacketVideo software, people can access and view their home or work with
security cameras, watch movie previews and news reports, listen to high-quality audio, or even
videoconference from any location.
