While Digital Bridges and its development partners utilise current wireless technology for the creation of innovative and compelling content for the current generation of mobile handsets, the pace of technology is such that within a very short period it will be possible to incorporate much more complex and advanced graphics into games and entertainment services provided through the wireless Internet.

Games designed for mobile devices already have a number of unique advantages over other platforms. The inherent communications abilities of the device, the constant proximity to the owner and the client-server relationship between the phone and the processing centre, mean that it is possible to create very large-scale multi-player games. Digital Bridges UNITY technology means that this ability can be extended over multiple network technologies, territories and languages, offering the first truly global audience. The ability to combine these features with the video and animation capabilities enabled by PacketVideo��s technology will provide consumers with an enhanced graphical experience. Both companies have agreed to explore the integration of PacketVideo��s advanced delivery capabilities into Digital Bridges UNITY system.

According to Robert Tercek, president of PacketVideos Applications and Services Division, Digital Bridges is acknowledged as a pioneer and leader in the area of wireless entertainment. Their focus on the creation of quality content and their relationships with a rapidly increasing number of world-class developers from the games and entertainment industries made them an obvious partner for PacketVideo. As mobile games increase in popularity, we��re convinced that the partnership between PacketVideo and Digital Bridges will produce the most advanced and attractive games available to mobile users.�

Kevin Bradshaw, CEO and founder of Digital Bridges, added, PacketVideos highly advanced technology and focus on wireless delivery integrates perfectly into Digital Bridges vision, namely the creation and delivery of the highest possible quality content from ourselves and our development partners. Our UNITY technology is already a world leader in the mobile entertainment server space. By giving our developers access to the rich, graphical capabilities presented by PacketVideo, we are ensuring that we remain at the cutting edge of wireless entertainment design and technology.�
