Mutewatch Releases Svart, A Special Edition Touchscreen Watch Together With Artist Jesper Nyren

STOCKHOLM, November 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

    Mutewatch - the world's first touchscreen watch - has had an eventful first year after
the launch in July 2011. After having being praised by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak,
awarded the Red Dot Award and seeing Karl Lagerfeld buy three watches on the first day of
sale in Paris, a Mutewatch called Svart is now arriving developed in a unique
collaboration with the artist, Jesper Nyren.

    "Mutewatch is more than a watch, it challenges the boundaries of how digital watches
operate. We looked for an artist who could interpret this and create something with a
completely new visual expression based on it. We are incredibly pleased with Jesper's
results." says Oscar Ritzen Praglowski co-founder of Mutewatch.

    Mutewatch's new colour - a deep and intensive black - means that the screen's numbers
are very clearly visible and highlights the watch's golden details engraved with Jesper
Nyren's patterns.

    "In my collaboration with Mutewatch I have started with thoughts about time and
repetition. I have created a kaleidoscopic pattern based on crystalline shapes that are
repeated, mirrored and shift in different colours. The pattern is designed in relation to
the watch's specific shape and properties, and is also intended to bring to mind the
passage of time as well as jewellery and ornaments." says Jesper Nyren.

    The new edition of Mutewatch with the name Svart will be available for sale at
exclusive stores like Luisa Via Roma in Florence, Storm in Copenhagen and Cara&Co in
Sydney. It will also be available at mutewatch.com from the 13th of November for USD 299
and EUR249.

    "We are proud to have such dedicated retailers representing Mutewatch all over the
world and we are happy to launch Svart together with a select few of them" says Mai-Li
Hammargren CEO and co-founder of Mutewatch.

    Jesper Nyren graduated from Royal Institute of Art in Sweden in 2007 and since then
has worked as an artist with several one-man exhibitions and public works. He primarily
works with painting in everything from small works to large spatial designs.

    Fundamental to Nyren's artistry is a fascination for the ability of painting to
communicate at a direct and physical level to the observer. The work has a geometric form,
where colour has a leading role.

    Mutewatch was founded in Stockholm in 2008 by a group of your entrepreneurs - Mai-Li
Hammargren, Oscar Ritzen Praglowski and Gustav Hammargren. The first product images were
released on the 5th of August 2010 and within 24 hours Engadget, Gizmodo and many others
had published the news. Traffic streamed to the website. Mutewatch was launched on the 7th
of July 2011 during Berlin Fashion Week.

New Release of PrinterOn Enterprise Mobile Printing Platform

Powerful printing solution enables secure, authenticated printing from
any device to any printer inside or outside your corporate network
regardless of geographic location.

KITCHENER, ON, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - PrinterOn(®), the world's leading Mobile Printing Platform, has announced the
release of PrinterOn Enterprise 1.9. PrinterOn Enterprise is a
full-featured Mobile Printing Platform that ensures documents are
printed and managed within the Private Cloud regardless of device,
printer, network or geographic location. PrinterOn Enterprise is
deployed directly on-site for organizations that require integrations
with existing authentication and print management systems, extending
and enhancing current infrastructure investments. Unlike other
solutions, PrinterOn Enterprise does not require the use of external
proprietary hardware to enable printing across disparate networks or
guest printing from outside the corporate network. PrinterOn Enterprise
1.9 provides major enhancements and added features which meet the
diverse mobile printing requirements within the Enterprise such as:

        --  User Authentication for Mobile Printing Apps - Support for LDAP
            and Active Directory user authentication for the PrinterOn iOS,
            PrinterOn Android and Ricoh HotSpot mobile printing apps.

        --  Server Clustering for Scalability - The ability to deploy in a
            clustered configuration allows for additional capacity and
            redundancy to be added to your Enterprise server in minutes.

        --  Extended E-mail Print Support - Enhanced SSL/TLS security
            support and improved email print quality allows for flexibility
            when integrating with email providers including Exchange, Gmail
            and others.

        --  New PrinterOn API for Print Management - This new API
            simplifies the exchange of advanced job-tracking information
            with print management solutions from Ricoh, Equitrac and other
            industry standards.

Consistent Printing Experience Increases Productivity for Mobile
Professionals

A key differentiator of the PrinterOn Enterprise Platform is the
consistent printing experience regardless of which device is being used
or location of the user. The ability to print business documents not
just in the office, but in public printing locations or at home is
crucial. PrinterOn simplifies mobile printing by providing a common
user interface across all Enterprise, Public and Home locations. This
consistent user experience makes mobile professionals more productive
wherever they may be.

Placing Mobile Users at the Center of the Solution While IT Departments
Stay in Control

With PrinterOn Enterprise, printing from smartphones and tablets is easy
for users as well as accountable for IT departments. Apps are available
for iOS(®), Android(®) and BlackBerry(®) operating systems. Most applications are designed for integration with
corporate authentication services such as LDAP and Active Directory and
are tracked within the organization much like any other print job
allowing IT departments to stay in control of the process. For desktop
and laptop users, the PrintWhere(®) Driver makes frequent every day printing to local or remote printers
outside the network quick and easy by taking advantage of the standard
Windows File>Print workflow. PrintWhere can also be used with existing
authentication services.

Harmonious Integration with Existing Print Management Services

PrinterOn Enterprise builds upon the traditional printing workflow by
adding a mobile printing layer to tracking and auditing services that
may already be in place. PrinterOn works in unison with solutions such
as Streamline NX(® )  from global technology company Ricoh, Equitrac(®), Pharos or PaperCut and allows mobile users to access and print
documents in a secure, seamless manner. Koji Miyao, Director, Mobile
Strategy, Ricoh Americas Corporation said "The integration of
Streamline NX and PrinterOn Enterprise enables Ricoh to provide a
simple, seamless and managed infrastructure to our Enterprise customers
that supports many printing scenarios in today's mobile workflow."  

An Industry First - Non-Intrusive Mobile Printing Integration for ERP
Systems such as SAP(®) and Oracle(®)

An Enterprise that needs to print from SAP to a remote location such as
another office, supplier or another country typically uses expensive
dedicated VPN or leased lines to connect and print to those locations.
This can be both cost and location prohibitive. The PrinterOn Connector
for SAP allows users of SAP to print to remote printers using the
standard print process within their SAP environment with no overhead
cost. The solution supports a wide range of barcode, label, RFID and
document printers.

"The PrinterOn Enterprise Platform is enterprise-grade by design and
unrivaled in the industry," said Ken Noreikis, Vice President Sales &
Marketing, PrinterOn. "We are a mobile printing leader because of our
long term commitment to research and development investment and our
considerable experience in the cloud printing industry. Every day,
small businesses, educational institutions and the world's largest
corporations use PrinterOn for their mobile printing requirements. This
latest release only improves upon a platform which is already the most
complete solution on the market today."

EQSA500RB-1A Offers Smart Access Technology with Unique Red Bull Design

DOVER, N.J., Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Casio America, Inc. is proud to announce its collaboration with Red Bull Racing, as an Official Team Partner of the Formula One racing team based in England, to create a limited edition EDIFICE men's watch - the EQSA500RB-1A. Built with Casio's original Smart Access Technology, the EQSA500RB-1A offers advanced functionality in addition to style and comfort.

Embodied by a striking stainless steel case and band, the EQSA500RB-1A watch dial incorporates Red Bull Racing's blue and red team colors as well as their dynamic logo. A highly evolved chronograph, based on Casio EDIFICE's philosophy of "speed and intelligence," the EQSA500RB-1A's sporty yet sophisticated design emphasizes the vitality of motorsports racing.

"We recognized that Red Bull Racing's fast-paced, energetic culture and drive to succeed were the perfect elements for the inspiration and development of our newest EDIFICE timepiece," said Shigenori Itoh, Chairman and CEO of Casio America, Inc. "Casio has been an Official Partner of Red Bull Racing since 2009 and we look forward to collaborating on additional timepieces in the future that continue to evoke a sense of velocity and motorsports energy."<s> </s>

The EQSA500RB-1A is equipped with Casio's unique Smart Access Technology. Casio's Smart Access permits easier, more intuitive operation of multiple functions by controlling independent hand movement, made possible by a new 5-motor layout, via an electronic crown. For example, the chronograph can record up to 10 lap times at an accuracy of 1/20(th) second and lap time results can be accessed using the electronic crown's pull and turn motion.

Speaking at the launch in Monza at the Italian Grand Prix, Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull Racing's double Formula One World Champion, commented, "The watch shares the same attributes that Red Bull Racing needs for success - precision, speed and of course, the highest level of technology in our racing cars. It's also not too heavy on my wrist, a nice balanced weight!"

Christian Horner, Red Bull Racing's Team Principal, added, "The watch has a nice symmetry between design and function - the Red Bull Racing logo is incorporated into the watch face, while its speed and precision embodies the team's ethos."

Tough Solar Power adds to the EQSA500RB-1A 's efficiency while its unique power saving function allows the timepiece to power down when not exposed to light for a certain period of time, thus conserving energy. This new limited edition timepiece also offers a variety of other features including 100M water resistance, countdown timer, daily alarm, tachymeter, and world time for 29 cities+ UTC.

Casio's limited edition EQSA500RB-1A will be available in November 2012 for an MSRP of $450. For additional information on Casio's EDIFICE men's watch collection, please visit http://www.Edifice.Casio.com.

Small cells are a key component of 3G and 4G architectures as they add capacity to the mobile network and allow service providers the maximum leverage of scarce spectrum resources. Successful HetNet deployments require small cells to synchronize seamlessly with the macro base stations irrespective of backhaul type.

SyncWorld brings together all players in the ecosystem including semiconductors, oscillators, software, test equipment and system vendors to drive cost effective and shortened design cycles by enabling architectural harmony and interoperability.

Analyst firm Infonetics forecasts the global small cell market to grow to $2.1 billion in 2016 as small cells have emerged as a key solution to deliver increased network capacity. Symmetricom has delivered a number of solutions with partners along with the introduction of the industry's first small cell synchronization solution, SCr/SCe NTP/ PTP and sGPS SoftClocks for residential and enterprise small cells. The small cells segment within the SyncWorld Ecosystem Program will ensure that interoperability needs are met as service providers accelerate their deployment plans.

"The small cells category represents leaders across the entire value chain," said Manish Gupta, vice president of marketing and business development for Symmetricom. "Working together, SyncWorld small cell members will be able to give service providers a comprehensive, integrated and simplified solution that is interoperable and supports the specifications required to support 4G/LTE networks."

Symmetricom and Mindspeed bring Precision Timing to Small Cells

Symmetricom provides Mindspeed with leading timing technology that cuts costs and eases integration

SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Symmetricom®, Inc. (NASDAQ:SYMM), a worldwide leader in precision time and frequency technologies, and Mindspeed Technologies®, (NASDAQ:MSPD), an industry leader in technology for small cell chips today announced they are working together to set the industry standard for precise time synchronization to include precision timing and GPS functionality to small cell system-on-chip (SoC) products.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110829/AQ59077LOGO)

The integration of  Precision Timing Protocol (PTP) and Network Time Protocol (NTP) into Mindspeed's Transcede® T2000 and T3000 device families cuts customers' costs and simplifies development as external components are no longer needed and the functionality is directly supported as part of Mindspeed's small cell reference design.

Like all base stations, small cells require precision timing. However, the techniques used to achieve this within traditional macrocells are prohibitively expensive for cost-sensitive mass market products like small cells. Many small cells therefore use NTP as a software (packet-based) alternative, necessitating development and integration. Symmetricom delivers a demonstrated interoperable solution, accelerating time to market and reducing risk.

Cellular technologies require very precise timing far more demanding than many familiar technologies. For example, a small cell base station must have a frequency accuracy of 100 parts per billion and must be able to maintain this accuracy over a wide temperature range and over months or years of operation. Traditional base stations have used Rubidium clocks and double ovened oscillators to achieve this accuracy, but are impossible to use in a cost-sensitive small cell application. In today's environment, smarter packet-based techniques are used instead.

Symmetricom's SCr/SCe NTP/ PTP and sGPS SoftClock solution will provide the highest level of time and frequency accuracy to Mindspeed's industry leading Transcede small cell products. Symmetricom also supports softGPS which can be used to confirm the location of the small cell.

The Mindspeed solution supports NTP and PTP directly. No additional hardware is needed and only requires an external low-cost radio for GPS as all the processing is done on the SoC. Unlike many GPS implementations, the solution is optimized for high-sensitivity so the small cell can get location even indoors and in areas which were once impenetrable by traditional GPS solutions. 

"As the small cell market continues to grow and our market share increases, we continue to innovate our products," commented Alan Taylor, director of product management of Mindspeed's Wireless division. "By incorporating support for NTP, PTP and uniquely high-performance GPS into our chips, Mindspeed has removed another significant pain point for OEMs, demonstrating once again our technology lead in small cells."

"GPS, PTP and NTP are key timing protocols to be integrated within small cell designs," said Manish Gupta, vice president of marketing and business development at Symmetricom. "Mindspeed has been a leader in small cell technology, and is a natural fit with the highly accurate and innovating timing solutions from Symmetricom."

Besides timing, GPS is also widely used to provide location. In some regions like the US, it is required to provide location information for each small cell. In the US operators do not have national licenses, meaning that each small cell needs exact location data to determine which radio band it may use. It is also a requirement as part of the E911 regulation to enable emergency services to ascertain where calls originate. Location information also ensures that small cells remain in their designated area.

Delaware Secretary Of State Launches New Website Designed To Make It Easier For Delaware Registered Companies To Voluntarily Comply With Their Unclaimed And Abandoned Property Obligations

http://www.DelawareVDA.com/

DOVER, Del., Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- As part of Delaware's new unclaimed property voluntary disclosure agreement (VDA) program signed into law by Governor Jack Markell in July, the Delaware Secretary of State, Jeffrey W. Bullock, launched a new website today designed to make it easier for Delaware registered companies to come into compliance with their past due unclaimed and abandoned property obligations.  The new website, http://www.DelawareVDA.com, describes who is eligible for the program and how Delaware companies can participate.  It also provides companies with the program's implementing guidelines and has a detailed "How it Works" section explaining the restructured voluntary compliance process.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121114/DC12048LOGO-a)

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121114/DC12048LOGO-b)               

The new unclaimed property voluntary compliance program will be administered through the Secretary of State's Office and offers Delaware registered business entities a unique, but narrow-window to come into compliance with Delaware's unclaimed property laws.  Instead of a multi-year audit, the program is designed so that companies can receive a full release of all past due unclaimed property liability in nine months.  In addition, for companies who enroll before June 30, 2013, the program will examine the books and records of companies only back to 1996, instead of 1981. 

Companies who successfully participate in the new VDA program receive a release of all past due unclaimed property liability for all prior report years.  In return, companies agree to continue to fulfill their ongoing responsibility to report and remit annually their Delaware abandoned or unclaimed property.

"After listening to the concerns of many of our corporate constituents, Governor Markell and our legislature created a new, more business-friendly voluntary compliance program where companies can 'catch up' on their past due unclaimed property obligations, avoid an audit, avoid interest and penalties, and significantly reduce their liability, all at the same time," said Secretary Bullock.  "We are creating a program that is reliable and cost-effective, and with this new web-site, we are trying to make it as easy as possible for companies to comply."

Under current law, companies domiciled, or with related entities domiciled, in Delaware are required to report and remit unaddressed or foreign-addressed abandoned and unclaimed property annually to the state.  Historically, Delaware has enforced its right to collect this property through audits performed by the Delaware Division of Revenue.  Because there is no statute of limitations on a company's legal obligation to report and remit past due unclaimed property, these audits examined the books and records of a company beginning in 1981, and could also have included significant statutory penalties and interest. 

To take advantage of the full benefits of the program, interested companies must enroll by June 30, 2013.  All companies enrolling after that but before June 30, 2014 will be allowed to enroll in the program but will have a longer review period back to 1993.  Pursuant to the legislation, no companies may enroll in the new voluntary compliance program after June 30, 2014.

To enroll, go to http://www.DelawareVDA.com/ to begin Step One of the compliance program's process.

comfort with energy savings by adjusting indoor climate to weather forecasts, user
behavior, and individual building characteristics. The tado system uses Thingsquare Mist
to connect the tado thermostats to the Internet.

    Unlike traditional thermostats, tado does not have knobs, buttons, or even a display.
Instead, tado uses a smartphone app to control the indoor comfort, allowing tado to save
energy by turning down the heating or AC when the last person has left the house - without
anyone having to lift a finger. Being Internet-connected, tado thermostats use a range of
energy-saving features that keeps on improving as the number of tado installations
increase. In a pilot study, tado users have already saved up to 30% on their heating
bills.

    "The tado system leads the way for a new generation of Internet-connected consumer
products, often called the Internet of Things", said Thingsquare co-founder Adam Dunkels.
"tado is a striking example of how innovative products can make effective use of emerging
Internet of Things technology."

    "By choosing Thingsquare Mist, we were able to develop an Internet-connected product
in a surprisingly short amount of time", said tado co-founder and CTO Johannes Schwarz.
"Internet-connectivity is at the heart of our product and our customers value hassle-free
installation, something that Thingsquare Mist helped us bring to our system."

    The tado system is available immediately via http://www.tado.com, with an
introductory price of 99 EUR per year.

    About tado

    tado offers smart heating control for private homes and small businesses. It adjusts
to the residents' behavior in real time while taking current weather data and building
characteristics into account. The name "tado" is derived from the Japanese greetings
"tadaima" and "okaeri". Roughly translated, they mean "I'm back home" and "Welcome home."

Equity and the Affordable Care Act: Why Health Care Insurance Alone Doesn't Remedy Disparities

New Online Resources from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Address Myths, Explain Equity in Health Care, and Offer Solutions

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Access to health care coverage does not ensure equality of health care, and equitable care doesn't mean treating every patient the same, according to Equity in the Context of Health Reform, a comprehensive, accessible collection of online tools just released by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) as the Reform in Action resource package at http://rwjf.org/en/research-publications/find-rwjf-research/2012/10/reform-in-action--equity-in-the-context-of-health-reform.html.

(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121114/PH12618-INFO )

Provisions in the 2010 Affordable Care Act (ACA) address the goal of reducing disparities in health care among minority populations. Starting in January 2014, all people living at or below 133 percent of the poverty level will be eligible for Medicaid. Increasing access to health coverage will have a significant effect, as more than half of the 46 million people who are currently uninsured are members of minority populations.

Evidence, however, strongly suggests that access to insurance coverage alone does not remedy those disparities. Two RWJF programs--Aligning Forces for Quality and Finding Answers--offer lessons and resources to help reduce that inequity.

The resources will be of interest to anyone reporting on or working in the field of health equity.

The online bundle of resources includes:

    --  Briefing paper: Reform in Action: Equity in the Context of Health Reform
    --  Tip Sheet: Five Things You Need to Know about Disparities in U.S. Health
        Care
    --  Tip Sheet: Four Tips for Improving Equity in U.S. Healthcare
    --  Infographic: Disparities in Health Care Persist :
        [http://rwjf.org/content/dam/farm/reports/issue_briefs/2012/rwjf402390/s
        ubassets/rwjf402390_3]
Expert commentary on research about Improving Equity in US Health Care is available from Marshall Chin, the Richard Parrillo Family Professor of Medicine at the University of Chicago, and director of The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's Finding Answers: Disparities Research for Change (http://www.solvingdisparities.org).

More information on the current state of disparities in U.S. health care, as well as what can be done to eliminate them, can be found at http://rwjf.org/en/research-publications/find-rwjf-research/2012/10/reform-in-action--equity-in-the-context-of-health-reform.html.

Background:

Aligning Forces for Quality (AF4Q) is the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's signature effort to lift the overall quality of health care in 16 targeted communities, as well as reduce racial and ethnic disparities and provide tested local models that help propel national reform. Aligning Forces communities have made great strides in publicly reporting disparities in care, standardizing the collection of race, ethnicity and language data in local hospitals and in boosting the capacity of language services in those hospitals.

Finding Answers: Disparities Research for Change is a national program focused on discovering and evaluating innovative interventions to move the disparities field beyond the documentation of racial and ethnic differences in health care toward implementing efforts to eliminate these gaps in care. Finding Answers' work includes a six-step process that organizations can use to address disparities, recommendations for the kinds of interventions that work to reduce disparities, and systematic reviews of the disparities-reduction literature.

IPCopper Releases High-Performance 10-Gigabit Packet Capture Appliance for Fast, Stealthy Cyber Security and Network Surveillance

PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- IPCopper, Inc., a leader in high-performance packet capture technology, announces the release of the IPCopper USC10G08, its fastest packet capture appliance for cybersecurity and cybersurveillance applications.

Experts agree - it is critical to secure IT infrastructure and organizations that deploy full packet capture gain a key component towards securing their networks: comprehensive real-time and historical network visibility. Network visibility provides the necessary operational intelligence for investigators to quickly and thoroughly respond to network incidents, tracing back and reconstructing every single cyber-event as it unfolded on the network, rather than trying to cobble together evidence and a rough timeline based on incomplete, fragmented data. Even on busy networks, the USC10G08 has the capacity to capture months and years of complete network activity - every packet in full, every single time.

The USC10G08 requires no configuration and can be operational in minutes. Just connect the included Ethernet cables and power up the unit. No changes to network topology or additional equipment are required. In addition, the appliance is absolutely invisible electronically, giving organizations the advantage of monitoring their network without detection either by insiders or outsiders.

All data captured by the USC10G08 is immediately encrypted using complex, always-on 20,000 bit dual encryption. If needed, the captured data can later be authenticated and used as evidence in court.

As hackers and other malicious actors develop evermore sophisticated tactics for network infiltration and routinely evade network defenses, businesses and government must be prepared. To be effective, network security professionals must know what is happening on their networks. Full packet capture dramatically improves the chances of fruitful investigation and provides the forensic evidence needed to successfully prosecute offenders.

With its high speed, large 8TB storage and low MSRP of $9,995.00, the USC10G08 is positioned to become a key component in cybersecurity architectures and network defense strategies.

The USC10G08 ably serves a number of market segments: network surveillance and monitoring; network security intelligence gathering; deep packet capture; network troubleshooting; network equipment testing and benchmarking; and data leakage detection.

New Prepaid Wireless Service Offers Self-Activating SIM Cards, Makes Mobile Setup Instant, Easy and Private

Ready SIM(TM) lets mobile users activate prepaid talk, text, and data plans
right off the shelf, with no contracts and no dealer assistance
required.

VANCOUVER, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - Roam Mobility Inc., a T-Mobile USA,
Inc. mobile virtual network operator (MVNO), has achieved an industry
first by launching a self-activating SIM card that delivers full
service within minutes of purchase. Ready SIM cards are ready to go,
with 3, 7, 14, or 30 days of unlimited nationwide talk and text, and
data at very competitive rates.

"This is the first truly instant prepaid SIM-based product to hit the
consumer market," says Emir Aboulhosn, Founder and SVP Business
Development of Roam Mobility. "Every other mobile service can require a
complicated paper work and dealer activation process, but with Ready
SIM, you just pop it in your phone, text us your zip code, and you've
got instant access and a local number with affordable, unlimited
nationwide talk and text, with 4G data add-ons."

Alex Besen, founder and CEO of The Besen Group LLC, an international
mobile data industry consulting company, says the telecommunications
industry has recognized for some time that existing prepaid solutions
aren't meeting the needs of today's consumers, but until now, the
technology simply wasn't there to support a completely self-activating
SIM card.

"Mobile users want convenience, flexibility and privacy," he explains.
"With Ready SIM, people don't have to provide their personal details
just to enjoy a few days, weeks or months of affordable phone use."

"Ready SIM is ideal for people who don't want to commit to a specific
provider or a long-term plan, are wary of sharing their personal
information, or don't want to use their primary number when posting to
Craigslist, social media, dating sites, or conducting job searches,"
says Aboulhosn. "It's also perfect for international travelers who want
to avoid excessive roaming rates, and for corporate clients who need to
provide an instant mobile solution for short-term projects and teams."

Ready SIM works with any unlocked mobile phone, connecting users to a
nationwide talk, text and data network that spans the USA, including
Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Ready SIM customers have access to a nationwide
4G network that does not use any data throttling and provides reliable,
high-speed data service. Ready SIM even allows data tethering, turning
any smartphone into a mobile hotspot that can connect other devices to
each other and to the Internet for no extra charge.

Starting November 19(th), Ready SIM is available through its distributors and dealers. To learn
more about Ready SIM find out where to purchase a Ready SIM or to

UTStarcom to Invest in Next Generation Video Platform aioTV

- Company adds to suite of technologies that bolster its rollout of subscription-based value added media services -

BEIJING, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- UTStarcom Holdings Corp. ("UTStarcom" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: UTSI), a leading provider of Broadband equipment and solutions, today announced that it has acquired a significant minority stake in aioTV Inc. ("all-in-one TV" or "aioTV"), a leading international cloud-based video aggregation and distribution platform.  The deal gives UTStarcom access to technology that will bolster its rollout of subscription-based value added media services, while giving aioTV a partner with whom to offer its technology in emerging markets in Asia.

A U.S.-based company, aioTV has developed the first middleware platform that combines conditional access and content management tools for network operators to aggregate multiple sources of content into a consistent TV-like experience across connected devices.  The technology locates and aggregates Internet and licensed video content metadata and ultimately delivers a common experience and content to viewers on a range of connected devices - any device that supports an HTML5 environment.  aioTV currently works with many consumer electronics makers, cable and telecommunications service providers and broadcast partners in North America, South America, Europe and the Middle East to provide their middleware platform to millions of customers.

UTStarcom will look for opportunities to offer aioTV's technology in Asia where it has relationships with regional cable service providers and broadcasters.  The aioTV platform will allow these operators to package and control a mixture of web content, licensed linear and video on demand (VOD) content into a   consistent video experience that runs across connected devices in any language and on any broadband network.  In the long-term, UTStarcom will also look for opportunities to jointly develop new service offerings with aioTV in collaboration with the Company's other strategic partners, such as iTV Media.

"We view aioTV as a key strategic investment and expect that it will help us realize our vision of becoming a leader in providing next generation media services," said Mr. William Wong, UTStarcom's Chief Executive Officer.  "This is exactly the type of company we want to partner with as we seek to provide a highly personalized entertainment experience that is available on the devices that customers are increasingly embedding into their lifestyle."

The transaction gives UTStarcom a 44% stake in aioTV and makes it the largest single shareholder in the company.  In addition, UTStarcom will acquire seats on aioTV's board of directors.  aioTV's management team, led by Michael Earle, Chief Executive Officer, and Jim Anderson, Chief Operating Officer, will continue to set and execute aioTV's strategy and product development initiatives. 

"We see emerging markets as some of the most eager adopters of next generation Internet-delivered video services," said Michael Earle, CEO of aioTV. "This strategic investment from UTStarcom gives us the platform to meet the shift in global video consumption and will accelerate our ability to deploy our technology in some of the fastest growing markets in Asia."

Snap Secure Mobile, Personal and Family Security App Launches in the United Kingdom

Comprehensive Security Solution Delivers Peace of Mind for Android, BlackBerry Users

PRINCETON, N.J. and CAMBRIDGE, England, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Snap Secure(®) (http://www.MySnapSecure.com), Snap MyLife, Inc.'s rapidly growing cloud-service mobile and personal security application for consumers and families, is now available in the United Kingdom via an automatic carrier billing option provided by mobile payment and analytics leader Bango. The agreement allows Snap MyLife, Inc. to deliver convenience and peace of mind to consumers and their families throughout the UK.

With thousands of mobile devices lost or stolen in the UK each year, mobile security is a concern. The issue is compounded by the fact that new technological capabilities mean people are increasingly relying on their mobile devices to conduct daily activities involving sensitive information, such as banking and personal communications. This leaves them vulnerable if that information falls into the wrong hands when a device is lost or stolen.

Snap Secure addresses these issues and more by providing a broad range of protection for smartphones, including backing up and restoring data; preventing viruses, spyware and spam; protecting and managing privacy; tracking and locating family members in real-time; locating and remotely controlling lost or stolen phones and tablets; and wiping data remotely.

To illustrate just some of Snap Secure's comprehensive security features, the application enables users to remotely control a lost or stolen smartphone by locking the device to protect important data and contact information or wiping all data contained in the phone to prevent unauthorized access. Snap Secure leverages smartphone GPS technology to help parents keep tabs on their child's whereabouts by tracking their mobile device location on a map via their convenient web dashboard. Parents can also use the Snap Secure Geo-fence to establish virtual geographic boundaries for their children and receive alerts when a child leaves the area or does not arrive at a specified location within a designated time period. Users receive all this and much more with their monthly or annual subscription.

The Snap MyLife, Inc.-Bango partnership gives UK mobile device users a quick, convenient way to access this critical protection. UK customers can purchase Snap Secure for Android phones and tablets and BlackBerry phones. Fees for the service are simply added to the users' monthly mobile phone bill.

"Protecting personal data and securing mobile devices is a concern everywhere as people become more dependent on their technology assets," said Jiren Parikh, President and CEO of Snap MyLife, Inc. "We're excited to work with Bango to offer consumers in the UK a complete family and data security solution."

"Snap Secure offers UK consumers the peace of mind they need to confidently use their mobile devices without concerns about theft, loss or viruses," noted Ray Anderson, CEO and Founder of Bango. "We're looking forward to working with Snap MyLife, Inc. to provide customers with a frictionless payment experience, via their mobile operator."

Snap Secure has been downloaded more than 2 million times and is a popular choice for consumers worldwide. In addition to the UK, Snap Secure is currently available in Italy, Spain and the U.S. with additional global market launches in process.

Benbria Introduces BlazeLoop® to Deliver On-the-Spot Mobile Customer Engagement

BlazeLoop Enables Businesses to Recover At-Risk Customers, Increase In-Store Sales Conversion Rates and Improve Front-line Operations through Real-Time Customer Engagement

OTTAWA, Ontario, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Benbria, the mobile customer engagement company, today announced BlazeLoop(®) CE (customer engagement) for the retail, hospitality, finance, banking and fast-casual restaurant industries.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121025/MM00780LOGO)

BlazeLoop provides a one-to-one connection between customers and staff, but is fundamentally different in style, speed, engagement and benefit from traditionally deployed feedback tools including surveys and website forms.

Through a variety of mobile, online and in-store collection points - including web app, SMS/text, email, mobile app or kiosk - BlazeLoop gives businesses a better understanding into the quality of the customer experience at the point-of-engagement.

Using intuitive and interactive interfaces, BlazeLoop enables customers to conveniently provide on-the-spot feedback to businesses in a matter of seconds.  Real-time notifications alert front-line managers of customer issues, enabling them to contact the customer straight away and privately resolve issues before customers have a chance to leave the site dissatisfied or socialize their experiences publicly via word-of-mouth and social media.   

"Unlike post-visit surveys, BlazeLoop gives us instant visibility into our guests' satisfaction or dissatisfaction, allowing us to address their requests and concerns while they are on our property," said Patrice Basille, Executive Vice President at the Brookstreet Hotel, one of Ottawa's finest hotels. "Our customers are more mobile than ever before and Benbria's on-the-spot guest feedback helps us improve our operations by fixing issues when they happen, enhancing the guests' experiences during their stay, and provides us real-time insight to give the next guests the experiences they expect and we strive to deliver."

With an increasing number of consumers sharing their experiences on social media and other mobile channels, this feedback is not visible to the front-line managers who could use it to fix issues as they happen and better engage with their customers on-the-spot. By immediately acting on issues, businesses can win over at-risk customers, improve in-store conversion rates, reduce negative publicity and - on the plus side -- recognize an experience that surpassed what was expected.

Recover At-Risk Customers
Dissatisfied customers will rarely approach an employee face-to-face to complain about their issues. Instead, they will often share their experiences via social media and word of mouth, or remain silent and go to a competitor, leaving businesses unaware of their concerns, with very little chance of winning them back.

"Benbria helps businesses adapt quickly to a real-time world where on-the-spot feedback is necessary to improve daily business operations and customer relations," said Benbria CEO Andrea Baptiste, "BlazeLoop captures customer feedback so staff preemptively react to negative commentary before it is publicly socialized. This drives operational excellence by turning customers into native brand advocates built upon great customer experiences that turn into repeat business and referral opportunities."

Increase In-Store Sales Conversion Rates
Retailers often struggle with low sales conversion rates and why patrons walk out without making a purchase. BlazeLoop helps companies capture customer feedback on the last three feet of the sale by intelligently directing the customer insight or concern to front-line staff so they can that can engage and resolve customer issues in real-time.  Benbria made possible an 18 percent rise in sales for a Fortune 1000 customer by providing the business the ability to immediately see, act and close on customer-facing issues.

Point of Engagement Metrics
BlazeLoop delivers powerful point-of-engagement analytics on the customer experience that are centrally tracked and available in real-time reports to all levels of management. Leveraging unique key performance indicators of revenue, business operations and conversion, BlazeLoop quantifies and measures the customer experience based on its impact to company objectives. Opportunities for improvement are identified which can enhance brand reputation management, customer service and front-line operations.

About Benbria
Benbria is a leader in mobile customer engagement solutions for retail, hospitality, financial, utilities and fast casual restaurant customers. Benbria is passionate about building technology that connects businesses with the people they serve. Through customer notifications to front-line managers, BlazeLoop empowers businesses to capture instant feedback on the customer's terms at the point of engagement and act on issues on-the-spot. By preempting negative commentary before it can be publicly socialized while facilitating the positive as it happens, BlazeLoop drives profitability through improved business operations, recovered dissatisfied customers, repeat business, and increased in-store conversion rates.
