Available this fall; Sign up to receive the latest details on GALAXY Note II at http://www.sprint.com/galaxynote2

OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Sprint (NYSE:S), the only national carrier with Truly Unlimited? 4G LTE data, text and calling to any mobile, is gearing up to offer Samsung GALAXY Note(®) II. This innovative device will be available on the Sprint 4G LTE network (available in select markets) this fall in two color options - Marble White or Titanium Gray. Pricing and the availability date will be provided later.

Manufactured by Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC (Samsung Mobile) - the No.1 mobile phone provider in the United States1, GALAXY Note II will boast several firsts for Sprint - first to launch with Android(TM) 4.1, Jelly Bean; first smartphone display larger than 5 inches; and first device to launch with a quad-core processor.

"We are very excited to bring this unique and innovative device into the Sprint lineup with the benefit of Sprint's Truly Unlimited data plans," said Fared Adib, Sprint vice president-Product Development. "Sprint's unlimited data plans are the perfect match for GALAXY Note II because our customers can enjoy the huge screen, fast LTE support and other creative features without worrying about costly overages or sharing data."

With the latest HD Super AMOLED(TM) screen technology powering the device's 5.5-inch 720p display, images are bigger, clearer and brighter than ever.  Performance and power are built- in on GALAXY Note II, thanks to Samsung's Exynos(TM) 1.6GHz quad-core processor, a long-lasting battery and blazing fast 4G/LTE network speeds.

Clever and Unique Features
GALALXY Note II comes with a new, built-in S Pen(TM) that is longer, thicker and ergonomically designed for the perfect grip. Its advanced features also provide enhanced capabilities to capture ideas and inspirations instantly and to combine handwriting with any digital content directly on the screen.

Selecting and cropping text, images or other content on GALAXY Note II with the S Pen is very similar to a traditional "click-mouse" experience. When the S Pen's side button is pressed down, users can draw precise lines around the content to be cropped out, highlighted or copied into another application.

With Air View, users can hover the S Pen over an email, image gallery, or video to preview the content without having to open it. This feature also enables users to launch a pop-up web browser or access an enlarged preview of website content without opening the full site.

The Easy Clip feature allows users to instantly outline and crop any content on the screen in any shape to save, share or paste. Once done cropping the image, users can freely edit the cropped content through coloring, shading or their own personal handwriting.

GALAXY Note II features an 8-megapixel rear-facing camera and 1.9 megapixel front-facing camera with HD video recording. The camera's powerful features include Buddy Photo Share, Burst Shot and Best Photo that were introduced on GALAXY S III earlier in June. Additional features include:

    --  Popup Note extends the concept of Popup Play letting users open an S
        Note instantly as a pop-up window anywhere on the screen.
    --  Quick Command, a new gesture pad feature, lets users quickly activate
        frequently used apps with the S Pen. The command pad appears when a user
        just swipes upward on the screen with the S Pen button pressed. Users
        can quickly send an email, make a call or search a location as they draw
        preregistered marks on the command pad or register a unique mark to
        allow for quick and easy access.
    --  Best Faces camera function allows users to choose the most preferred
        face or pose of each person from group portrait photos. Users can also
        personalize photos by leaving handwritten notes on the backside of a
        photo using the S Pen. Handwritten Photo Notes can be shared with others
        in jpg format.
    --  Screen Recorder allows users to share their experiences with others
        quickly and easily.
    --  S Beam allows users to tap the back of GALAXY Note II against another
        S-Beam-enabled device to share large video files and documents via NFC
        and Wi-Fi Direct(TM) without using data service.
    --  Share Shot seamlessly shares pictures taken with GALAXY Note II's 8-
        megapixel camera to other phones from up to 200 feet away.
    --  Idea Sketch allows users to easily add illustrations by handwriting
        keywords on the S Note.
    --  Sprint Professional Grade and Samsung SAFE to help ensure that
        businesses have the security and control they require to protect the
        enterprise.
    --  Long-lasting 3,100mAh battery.
    --  16GB internal memory (ROM) and 2GB (RAM) microSD(TM) card slot
        supporting up to 64GB.
    --  International voice and data capable with GSM/UMTS/CDMA networks.
Enjoy Data Without Limits
GALAXY Note II requires activation on one of the Sprint Everything Data plans starting at just $79.99 per month (taxes and fees excluded) with Truly Unlimited data, text and calling to any mobile. No throttling, no metering and no overages, all while on the Sprint network. With Sprint's Everything Data and other plans that include Truly Unlimited data, Sprint is continuing its history of data leadership by making it easy for its customers to use data in all the ways that are useful to them, such as news, email, music, TV and GPS navigation, without worrying about data overages on their monthly bill.

Sprint 4G LTE is now available in 19 cities, including Atlanta, Baltimore, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, San Antonio and Waco, Texas. Sprint's buildout of its 4G LTE network is under way in more than 100 additional cities within its existing nationwide 3G footprint. Major metropolitan areas in which Sprint 4G LTE is expected to be available in the coming months include Boston; Charlotte, N.C.; Chicago; Indianapolis; Los Angeles; Memphis, Tenn.; Miami; Nashville, Tenn.; New Orleans; New York; Philadelphia; and Washington, D.C.

By the end of 2013, Sprint expects to have largely completed the nationwide build out of its all-new 3G and 4G network, a program known as Network Vision. The project also includes significant improvement in customers' 3G network experience, including expanded coverage, improved network reliability, better voice quality, and faster 3G data speeds.

Leverages patented technology to offer options for customers to reserve airline tickets, vacation packages, concert tickets and much more

CHICAGO, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- SmartOptions(TM), a Chicago-based company that pioneered the use of electronic options to reserve tickets for sporting events, today announced an expansion of its platform to offer options across a broad array of consumer goods and services.  In the coming months, customers can expect to have the ability to purchase options on online daily deal offerings, airline tickets, restaurant reservations and vacation packages.  SmartOptions also has plans to apply their patented technology and reservation process to a broad array of business needs, such as allowing businesses to lock in floating costs like monthly energy bills.

Over the past two years, SmartOptions has continually modified and honed their proprietary pricing models and expanded their patent portfolio to meet their customers' needs.  SmartOptions' e-commerce platform, Optionit.com®, has continually provided consumers with the ability to reserve access to their favorite events at a minimal upfront cost, while providing them with the flexibility to either:

    --  Attend that event at a fair value cost
    --  Re-sell that access on OptionIt's secondary platform
    --  Choose to forgo the event completely with no further obligation.
In all instances, SmartOptions' Reserve Now ... Decide Later® platform offers its customer base exclusive first rights access (Reserve Now) with the flexibility and convenience to choose at a later date (Decide Later).  To date, the SmartOptions platform has offered fans flexible and convenient access to myriad teams throughout the NFL, NHL, NCAA, as well as on package deals that extend to most major sporting events in the U.S. and abroad.

Merchants who have done business with SmartOptions understand the many benefits.  SmartOptions' expertise in finance and disciplined trading principles offers its partners the confidence that experienced professionals control the proprietary pricing and modeling being used to price their inventory.  Merchants can choose whether to incorporate SmartOptions technology on to their platform as a white-labeled service or directly to buyers to OptionIt.com.

Partner and 16-year trading veteran Richard Gilsdorf stated that, "Clients understand the importance that options and advanced reservation systems play in the modern financial world.  Our platform offers them the necessary access to 21(st) century concepts such as advanced dynamic pricing and secondary market trading capability. Our unique and patented technology that we have incorporated into our business is reliable and state of the art and offers their consumers a safe, secure, environment that is easy to use for everyone."

"We have seen that our approach has the potential to revolutionize how customers purchase goods and services across many of the world's largest industries," said Mac McNally, managing partner and chief executive officer of SmartOptions.  "This patented process makes a broader array of consumer products more accessible to the end user, on terms that benefit both the buyer and seller.  Our model offers all merchants, and even aggregators, powerful tools to dynamically price their goods and services.

"Options can lead to greater sales for our partners by converting on-the-fence shoppers into satisfied, paying customers," continued McNally.  "Our experience shows that approximately 80 percent of option buyers exercise their option and purchase the underlying item.  Along with driving revenue growth, our model also provides a means for our clients to enhance brand identity, strengthen customer loyalty, and reduce customer refunds."

SmartOption's executive leadership and advisory team includes some of the most experienced and respected members of the sports, entertainment, trading and finance communities.  The company's commitment is to continue to bring options to all areas that benefit our clients and their customers.

"Organizations of all sizes can take advantage of Microsoft Windows Server 2012 and Hyper-V to improve the manageability, efficiency and scalability of their data center environments," commented Jerome Wendt, lead analyst and president of DCIG.  "As this platform adoption occurs, data protection must take a priority, and Unitrends offers a highly competitive, economical backup solution that will nicely complement these new releases from Microsoft. Unitrends provides organizations with a cost-effective means to confidently protect the growing amount of data that organizations will likely store on Windows platforms as a result of Microsoft's increased presence in the virtualization space."

"Just as Microsoft offers a free version of Hyper-V Server 2012, Unitrends offers a fully functioning free version of Unitrends Enterprise Backup software that protects up to four Microsoft Hyper-V or VMware vSphere® virtual machines," said Maria Pressley, chief evangelist, Unitrends. "Just like Windows Server 2012, Unitrends Enterprise Backup scales from a Free Edition to an Enterprise Edition, protecting hundreds of terabytes of cloud, virtual and physical data."

A free Unitrends Enterprise Backup(TM) NFR (Not For Resale) program for Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals and Microsoft Certified Professionals was also announced earlier this year.  The NFR edition supports not only virtual environments but physical environments as well. It is available to Microsoft and VMware Certified Professionals. The NFR edition is time-limited for one year with a maximum of two sockets and two application-enabled servers. It may be renewed at no cost if the Microsoft or VMware Certified Professional proves that credentials have been renewed.

GOOD Debuts the First Social Platform That Isn't Only About You

Good.is Connects People Who Give a Damn to Those They Respect, Galvanizing Them to Share and Learn About Issues, Information and Actionable Opportunities to Make a Difference for Themselves and the Communities in Which They Live

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- GOOD Worldwide LLC, a mission-driven business focused on helping people live well and do good, today announced the launch of good.is, a community platform where members can read GOOD-published editorial, follow people and organizations they respect, share news they care about, and find relevant, actionable opportunities to make an impact.

(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120919/AQ77043-a)

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120919/AQ77043LOGO-b)

Good.is unites like-minded people who share civic goals and a creative sensibility into a community through which members inspire one another toward driving positive change. Instead of championing one individual cause, good.is creates a place where people can join forces in pursuit of overall progress. This evolutionary step follows GOOD's mission of making "doing well by doing good" more attainable, enjoyable and widespread.

"The challenge we face is that problems work extremely well together. For instance, education problems support employment problems. And employment problems lead to income problems, which in turn drive health problems, and so on," said Ben Goldhirsh, founder of GOOD Worldwide. "Meanwhile, the social impact space is extremely fragmented - siloed communities are doing great work for education, poverty and health individually - but there is not consistent coordination. Problems gang up on us so we need to do the same. We need to play a team game in order to make an impact."

Good.is answers the question: "What can I do to make things better?"

The site offers thought-provoking content meant to inspire and help people find ways to get involved and make a difference. While GOOD editors will continue to contribute features and shorter-length pieces, members can also add stories and actionable opportunities from anywhere on the web, and in turn, add those opportunities to a personalized "To Do" list, which inspires others and drives visible results.

Joining the community is free. Once visitors sign up and create a profile, they can discover, invite and follow people they respect, participate in the conversation, share stories and opportunities to do good, and take part in "Dos." The site has already attracted some influential members like Caterina Fake, co-founder of Flickr, Scott Harrison, founder of Charity: Water, and Chris Hughes, co-founder of Facebook and founder of Jumo, a social activist platform that GOOD acquired in 2011.

"When Jumo merged with GOOD the hope was to build a single community of engaged citizens and mission-driven organizations. We all believed that socially-minded people needed a place to convene, join forces, learn from one another and take action together - I think the new good.is can be that place," said Hughes. "At Jumo, we focused on how technology could help people have a meaningful impact on the world, while GOOD has its roots in media as a force for change. Bringing these together, the new good.is is furthering that vision we all shared. As one of its first members, I'm looking forward to learning from and sharing with this community."

Good.is is an evolutionary milestone for GOOD Worldwide

The launch marks an important new step for GOOD Worldwide, founded in 2006 by Ben Goldhirsh, Casey Caplowe and Max Schorr as a magazine to shine a light on a budding cultural movement: a growing dedication to positively and proactively engaging with the world. At that time, "do-gooder" was looked at as a pejorative. GOOD repositioned "doing good" as being powerful, important, pragmatic and sexy. Six years later, the experiment that started as GOOD has seen tremendous success, experienced exponential growth and has expanded its offerings from being a magazine to a media company that reaches millions of people a month. Simultaneously, the notion of "doing good" has evolved. It doesn't only imply pure altruism or self-sacrifice, or mean choosing between doing good for the world and doing well for oneself; one can do both, at the same time, every day.

Recognizing this evolution, the team at GOOD realized that a community-driven platform that connects, informs and empowers people to make a difference would be the next step toward better accomplishing the purpose - to do the most good. In an audience survey, 75 percent of their readers reported that they wished they had friends or others with whom to do good. When respondents were asked what they'd like to see more of from GOOD, nearly 55 percent said they wanted more opportunities for action, and nearly 43 percent said they wanted opportunities to interact with the community.

Enter good.is, a platform that makes doing good attainable and enjoyable, and helps foster a sense of being a part of something that will help better our world.

About GOOD
GOOD (http://www.good.is) is a global community of, by, and for pragmatic idealists working towards individual and collective progress. Good.is is the platform for collaboration between members of the GOOD community and the organizations and corporations that work with the GOOD community. For each member of GOOD, the mission is to learn and do what's good for you and good for all.

Ganz Introduces Drama, Intrigue, Treachery And Forbidden Love...On Facebook

Tail Towns Friends(TM) uniquely combines online gameplay with offline gifts/collectibles

TORONTO, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Ganz, creator of Webkinz® pets and Webkinz World(TM), the first web-enabled toy and kids' virtual world, introduces Tail TownsFriends(TM), a groundbreaking hybrid Facebook game and gift collection for women.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120919/NY76860LOGO)

The Tail Towns Friends virtual world invites women to indulge in a whirlwind of drama, intrigue, treachery and forbidden love - enacted by a cast of mice and other furry critters, and as players become more involved in the game, the characters' juicy stories start to unfold.

To set the scene: players are encouraged to build and expand their land with gorgeous gardens and landscapes, aiming to grow their businesses, by distributing goods to the townspeople by harvesting. All while working toward goals set by the game's cast of woodland characters.

Ganz's latest game for an adult audience, Tail Towns Friends is designed to appeal to the growing number of women who are taking a break from their busy lives by playing casual Facebook games. "According to a 2011 study cited on Digital Buzz (http://www.digitalbuzzblog.com/facebook-games-stats), 53% of Facebook users play games on Facebook," observed Howard Ganz, President of Ganz. "Tail Towns Friends enables women to take a 'game-cation' - to get away briefly from their oh-so-busy lives, easily and conveniently."

At the same time, he noted, "Tail Towns Friends uniquely combines the virtual world with the real one."

Some unique features of the game include:

    --  One-of-a-kind artwork: Charming character designs and luscious settings
        enrich the Tail Towns Friends experience. The rich visuals beautifully
        bring city and country together for the most enjoyable gameplay.
    --  Unique Soap-Opera Inspired Storyline: Indulge in a soap opera. This is
        not your typical Facebook game. Filled with lots of juicy storylines,
        gossip and plotting, Tail Towns Friends will make you forget you are
        playing a game and not watching a TV show.
    --  Design, create and imagine: The rich visuals encourage players to escape
        into their virtual getaways by enabling players to design and decorate
        realistic country retreats.
    --  Collectible Figurines: These figurines not only allow you to bridge the
        real world with your virtual one, but unlock each character's exclusive
        storyline and "Secret Diary Goals." Hand-painted with exquisite, ornate
        details, the custom-designed, collectible, polystone figurines also make
        fabulous gifts for any collector.
Tail Towns Friends is free to play on Facebook at: http://bit.ly/LSBzQ1

Just as it pioneered joining toys to the virtual world for the hugely successful Webkinz, Ganz is incorporating collectible figurines into the online experience of Tail TownsFriends in an innovative way.  Tail Towns Friends is one of the first Facebook games with code registration ability, meaningplayers can enter each figurine's individual code into the game, bringing that character to life within the story, while also creating the opportunity for daily virtual rewards.

Tail Towns Friends figurines are available for purchase within the Tail Towns Friends game and at select specialty retailersfor a suggested retail price of $14 each. Locate the store nearest you at: http://tailtowns.ganzworld.com/store-locator/

For social gamers, Tail Towns Friends is the perfect blend of physical and virtual fun.

OneTok's Voice-Interpretation Platform Now Available for Developers

Enabling voice as the user interface to interact with and control mobile apps

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- OneTok today announced general availability of its voice-interpretation platform that developers can use to create intelligent voice interfaces that enable users to interact with and control mobile applications simply by speaking to them.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120724/MM45531LOGO)

OneTok is a cloud-based platform that lets developers configure any word or phrase to invoke any activity in their consumer or enterprise apps, all with just a few clicks. Instead of jabbing at buttons while driving or typing their destinations, users of smartphones and tablets need only to speak, using their voices for tasks such as controlling and navigating apps, entering their logins or initiating web searches.

Addressing attendees at the GigaOm Mobilize LaunchPad event here, OneTok CEO Ben Lilienthal said the availability of his company's innovative software platform gives developers a "here and now" opportunity to quickly take advantage of the newest generation of Natural Language Understanding (NLU) technology, such as the newly updated Siri for Apple mobile devices and voice assistants from handset and operating system manufacturers.

"With the new Siri, users can open apps with their voices, but it stops there. Siri gets users to developers' doorsteps, but without OneTok as the voice enabler, they can't come in. OneTok enables them to talk and actually interact with and use their apps through simple voice commands," said Lilienthal.

"OneTok's potential for the mobile developer community is limitless. Not only does it enrich existing apps, but truly enables mobile developers to address completely new usage scenarios for consumer to enterprise apps,"?said Spencer Chen, head of business development, Appcelerator. "Just as the touch screen experience was introduced by Apple five years ago, OneTok has the potential to rewrite how everyday users interact with their mobile apps through their voice."

"OneTok offers developers the quickest time to market with the least amount of effort required of their engineering staffs because all of an app's methods and functions stay the same with the addition of OneTok as the voice-enablement component," Lilienthal said.  "And the OneTok platform is subscription based, according to usage. So if the deployment is not successful, the developer is not stuck with huge upfront costs that can add up quickly before an app becomes available."

"For developers, interfacing with OneTok means rapid time to market," he said.  "Their apps can be voice-enabled in a day without having to make any changes to their code."

OneTok includes a variety of voice libraries with pre-existing phrases and commands for vertical market apps in Banking, Fitness, Food, Travel, Collaboration and Top 10 voice commands for every app.  As an example, the Top 10 voice commands come pre-packaged with:

    --  Log in and log out
    --  Post to Facebook
    --  Share via email or Twitter
    --  Save to favorites
    --  Search
    --  Enter credit card information
    --  Navigate back / forward
    --  Zoom in and out
"OneTok is more than an API. It's an end-to-end platform," Lilienthal said. "We're able to leverage our expertise in Voice over IP and audio conferencing to give developers cutting-edge libraries that address audio hurdles on the device, such as echo cancellation, noise suppression and audio compression.  On the server, we enhance the audio signal processing so that OneTok can even work in loud, noisy environments."

Developers can sign up for a OneTok account at http://www.onetok.com and click on Sign Up. For more information, visit http://www.onetok.com.

About OneTok
Founded in 2011, OneTok develops a SaaS platform to voice-enable mobile apps so consumers can use the apps by talking to them in a normal and natural way. This helps app developers retain active users and further drive user engagement. OneTok's founders are patent-holding experts in voice over Internet systems.
