New Rob Dickinson Music Video Shot Entirely on the Nokia N93

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Last night, Nokia premiered musician Rob Dickinson's new video, "Oceans;" which is the first music video created solely on a Nokia Nseries multimedia computer -- the first music video ever done solely on a device of its class.

Directed by Mike Hodgkinson, "Oceans" is the second single off Rob Dickinson's debut solo album, entitled Fresh Wine for the Horses. The "Oceans" music video was shot by Hodgkinson on the Nokia N93, a 3.2 megapixel cameraphone with DVD quality video and Carl Zeiss optics.

"The great thing about the Nokia N93 cameraphone is that we were able to go anywhere with it. We didn't have to lug a camera crew around thanks to the luxury of such a compact and versatile device," said Mike Hodgkinson, director of 'Oceans'. "We were able to get some very creative shots with it, even underwater and we also created an aerial shot with a bunch of helium balloons -- we really pushed the Nokia N93 to its limits, and it responded fantastically."

"It's a testament to the skill and inventiveness of Mike Hodgkinson, and the sheer quality of the Nokia N93 that the video has come out so brilliantly. I think the fact that most people are amazed when they are told that it was all shot on a cellphone says it all," commented Rob Dickinson. "That something so small and portable can produce such stunning results gives hope to independent artists everywhere, and credit to Nokia for encouraging this project from the start."

"Nokia is about connecting people with their passions and it's truly impressive to see how artists like Mike and Rob can bring their creative visions to life, particularly knowing it was done with an N93," said Andrew Elliott, Director of Multimedia Experiences, Nokia America. "We encourage people, from professional to hobbyist, to explore the full capacity of the Nokia Nseries devices to express themselves."

The Nokia N93 features a 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, DVD- like video capture and optical zoom. The Nokia N93 can connect directly to your TV for a widescreen movie experience or upload your images and video to online albums or blogs. Consumers can also create high-quality home movies and burn them to DVD with the Adobe Premiere Elements 2.0 software that comes in box with the Nokia N93.

Sun Microsystems Continues Global Commitment to Eco Responsible Computing; Outlines Innovation, Progress, and ResultsSustainable Computing Successes Achieved Through 'Innovate, Act and Share' Strategy

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Reiterating its commitment to sustainable computing, Sun Microsystems , a global technology leader and creator of the Solaris(TM) Operating System, today showcased its progress in lowering the environmental impact of information-intensive companies. Employing a three-pronged approach of "Innovate, Act and Share," Sun's eco responsible products and business processes are helping Sun and its customers reduce their environmental impact by lowering energy and waste from IT while enabling significant savings in other areas of operations. Sun's innovations over the past year are driving positive environmental change, helping evolve the technology landscape for customers.

"Through our eco-friendly products, workplace and eWaste initiatives, Sun has a truly unique and comprehensive value proposition for our customers," said David Douglas, vice president of eco responsibility, Sun Microsystems. "Sun's products today are consuming less energy, generating less waste, and enabling new, eco responsible business practices. These innovations are changing the conversation with our customers by showing that eco responsibility can benefit the bottom line as well as the earth we share. We are working together with customers around the world to help reduce datacenter and desktop energy consumption without sacrificing performance or business results."

A recent IDC report notes that in 2005, $26.1 billion was spent to power and cool the worldwide installed base of servers, more than double the cost from 10 years ago. The report continues that over the next five years, the expense to power and cool the worldwide installed base of servers is projected to grow four times compared with the growth rate for new server spending(1).

Eco Equals Ecology and Economy

One year after Sun outlined its sustainable growth initiatives at Sun's Summit on 21st Century Eco-Responsibility, the company's progress and results have confirmed that environmental and economic advances can go hand in hand.

Break Out Innovation That Redefines the Datacenter and the Desktop

Sun's eco responsible systems, including Sun Ray(TM) clients and virtualization technologies, are designed to reduce energy needs and CO2 production at all levels, delivering a carbon neutral or a sustainable computing infrastructure. Sun Ray Thin Clients offer an alternative to power hungry desktop and laptop computers and help reduce the maintenance, upgrading, and operational costs associated with most PC client environments, reducing power consumption by nearly 9X and raw materials usage by 150X.

In December 2005, Sun announced the release of the industry's first eco responsible server, the Sun Fire(TM) T1000 and T2000 servers, featuring patented CoolThreads(TM) technology, which boast the highest throughput processor in its class. Drawing about as much power as a household light bulb, its 32 simultaneous processing threads deliver the best performance per watt of any processor available. While conserving energy, these systems do not compromise on performance, setting 13 world records since launch and outperforming competitors systems by up to 3X(2) while occupying only 33 percent of the power and space.

Continuing its reputation around innovation, Sun recently announced Project Blackbox, the world's first virtualized datacenter that packages compute storage and network infrastructure along with high efficiency power and cooling in ready-to-go scalable modular units based on standard shipping containers for maximum flexibility. Compared to a 10,000-sq.-foot datacenter, Project Blackbox expects to be 1/100th the initial cost, 1/5 the cost per sq. foot, 20 percent more efficient and deliver 3X the computing power for equivalent space.

Sun Announces First-of-its-Kind Energy Rebate With PG&E

Space, power, cooling and budget are the growing constraints for every datacenter. In August of this year, Sun announced a first-of-its-kind energy rebate for its Sun Fire T1000 and T2000 servers with California utility PG&E. As part of PG&E's Non Residential Retrofit program, customers replacing existing equipment with these eco responsible servers can receive a cash savings between $700-$1000 per server or up to 35 percent when combined with the Sun Upgrade Advantage Program(3). This is the first time a public utility company has offered a rebate for server upgrades, helping customers move to more efficient technology and easing their datacenter constraints.

Sun Recognized Among Best Workplaces for Commuters

For the third year in a row, Sun is among the top 10 FORTUNE 500 companies that lead the country by providing outstanding commuter benefits to a significant portion of its U.S. workforce to help decrease air pollution, traffic congestion and dependence on fossil fuels. As named by the EPA and Department of Transportation Sun tops the 2006 rankings as the number one company in the Computer and Office Equipment industry. As part of its efforts, Sun provides an array of benefits that help employees pursue environmentally friendly and cost-effective commuting strategies. Sun's commute programs, including the Sun(SM) Open Work Practice service, a flexible work program for its mobile and distributed workforce have eliminated more than 30,000 tons of CO2 emissions and have saved employees hundreds of thousands of hours that otherwise would have been wasted in bumper-to-bumper traffic.

eWaste Program Leadership

In response to the rise of eWaste and legislation such as the European Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive, Sun has instituted a global product takeback program. While WEEE targets that no more than 35 percent of a company's products should go in landfill, Sun has gone well beyond by having less than five percent of its products from its takeback program enter the waste stream.

Innovate, Act, Share

Sun's eco responsibility commitments are guided by the following principles: Innovate, Act and Share. Sun innovates by making products and services that are both good for the environment and good for business. Sun acts by operating in an open, eco-conscious way on a day-to-day basis. And finally, Sun shares by making information and technology available to others so that we can all move forward and participate in an increasingly sustainable way. Sun is an active member of EPA's Climate Leaders and has committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions from US operations by 20 percent over 2002 levels by the year 2012.

Delphi's Battery Disconnect Safety Device is Becoming Standard Equipment for Technology LeadersTechnology enhances safety, prevents damage to automobiles and could do the same for industrial machinery

WUPPERTAL, Germany, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Delphi Corporation's Battery Disconnect Safety Device (BDSD) is becoming standard equipment on vehicles produced by many German automakers known for their leadership in technology. This technology could also be used in hybrids, trains, boats and commercial vehicles.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20020315/DEF002LOGO )

Featuring the pyrotechnic safety switch technology on display at the 2006 Electronica show in Munich Nov. 14-17, BDSD could also be applied to industrial machines and high-voltage switches to protect both equipment operators and the machinery, and to high-voltage harnesses used in hybrid vehicles.

Delphi's BDSD pyrotechnically disconnects high currents or voltages in less than one millisecond after an electric signal is triggered.

In automobiles, an electric signal from the airbag control unit triggers activation, severing the current that flows through the cable connecting the battery with the starter and alternator. High currents that flow through this cable while starting the vehicle prohibit the use of fuses. If this cable, the largest electrical cable in an automobile, is not protected, current that continues to flow through it following a vehicle crash poses the threat of high-temperature short circuits and arcing, which could lead to a fire.

In non-automotive applications, electric devices exclusive of airbag sensors trigger activation of the BDSD, severing high-voltage electrical connections and protecting against damage to equipment and injuries to workers caused by unchecked electrical currents and power surges.

While severing power between the battery and the starter and alternator in passenger vehicles following collisions is not new, Delphi's BDSD is far more reliable than the systems involving electro mechanic relays and standard fuses that they replace. In many instances, Delphi's BDSD is also less expensive, costing up to 20 percent less than competitors' products, including mosfets, relays and battery safety clamps.

Delphi's BDSD is also available with a safe engine restart option, an industry first that allows drivers to restart their vehicles following a collision if there are no electrical hazards. This feature enhances safety by enabling drivers to move their vehicles off the road, preventing the occurrence of a possible second collision.

The safe engine restart option incorporates a standard fuse that is mounted parallel to the BDSD. After the BDSD is triggered, severing the current, this fuse allows for a warm-engine restart providing the event that triggered the BDSD did not cause a short circuit. If the crash did result in a short circuit, this fuse blows immediately, preventing an unsafe restart.

While Delphi's BDSD disconnects power from the vehicle battery to unfused cables, it does not sever power to safety functions such as door locks, hazard lights, interior lighting and automatic emergency call systems.

Delphi's first BDSD was suitable for placement in low-temperature environments. The current version incorporates a sealed connector system and a high-temperature pyrotechnic load, which allows it to be mounted directly under the hood near the battery, in most cases using only two bolts. This makes for quick and easy replacement of a deployed BDSD.

Delphi's BDSD is comprised of a small number of parts, all enclosed in a high-strength fiber-reinforced plastic. Because all moving parts are enclosed in the plastic housing, and because electrostatic discharge protection is built in, it is unlikely that an installer could trigger deployment of the pyrotechnic device. Even if activation occurs during installation, it would not cause injury or damage.

Delphi's BDSD meets all common specifications in the automotive industry, is free of heavy metals and is available for immediate production.

Delphi's next generation BDSD will likely be even smaller than the current version and is expected to be even more cost-effective.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENT

This press release, as well as other statements made by Delphi may contain forward-looking statements within the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that reflect, when made, the company's current views with respect to current events and financial performance. Such forward-looking statements are and will be, as the case may be, subject to many risks, uncertainties and factors relating to the company's operations and business environment which may cause the actual results of the company to be materially different from any future results, express or implied, by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: the ability of the company to continue as a going concern; the ability of the company to operate pursuant to the terms of the debtor-in-possession ("DIP") financing facility; the company's ability to obtain court approval with respect to motions in the chapter 11 proceeding prosecuted by it from time to time; the ability of the company to develop, prosecute, confirm and consummate one or more plans of reorganization with respect to the Chapter 11 cases; risks associated with third parties seeking and obtaining court approval to terminate or shorten the exclusivity period for the company to propose and confirm one or more plans of reorganization, for the appointment of a chapter 11 trustee or to convert the cases to chapter 7 cases; the ability of the company to obtain and maintain normal terms with vendors and service providers; the company's ability to maintain contracts that are critical to its operations; the potential adverse impact of the Chapter 11 cases on the company's liquidity or results of operations; the ability of the company to execute its business plans, including the transformation plan described in the Company's March 31, 2006 press release, and to do so in a timely fashion; the ability of the company to attract, motivate and/or retain key executives and associates; the ability of the company to avoid or continue to operate during a strike, or partial work stoppage or slow down by any of its unionized employees; and the ability of the company to attract and retain customers. Other risk factors are listed from time to time in the company's United States Securities and Exchange Commission reports, including, but not limited to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. Delphi disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events and/or otherwise.

Similarly, these and other factors, including the terms of any reorganization plan ultimately confirmed, can affect the value of the company's various pre-petition liabilities, common stock and/or other equity securities. Additionally, no assurance can be given as to what values, if any, will be ascribed in the bankruptcy proceedings to each of these constituencies. A plan of reorganization could result in holders of Delphi's common stock receiving no distribution on account of their interest and cancellation of their interests. Under certain conditions specified in the Bankruptcy Code, a plan of reorganization may be confirmed notwithstanding its rejection by an impaired class of creditors or equity holders and notwithstanding the fact that equity holders do not receive or retain property on account of their equity interests under the plan. In light of the foregoing and as stated in its October 8, 2005, press release announcing the filing of its Chapter 11 reorganization cases, the company considers the value of the common stock to be highly speculative and cautions equity holders that the stock may ultimately be determined to have no value. Accordingly, the company urges that appropriate caution be exercised with respect to existing and future investments in Delphi's common stock or other equity interests or any claims relating to pre-petition liabilities.

BearingPoint Helps HHS Expand New Financial Management SystemSeven Additional Agencies to Use Unified Financial Management System

MCLEAN, Va., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BearingPoint, Inc. , one of the world's largest management and technology consulting firms, today announced it has completed implementation and deployment of the Department of Health and Human Services Unified Financial Management System (UFMS) at the Program Support Center (PSC) and is providing service to seven additional HHS agencies. UFMS is the cornerstone of a department-wide effort to transform financial management at HHS. When complete in 2007, UFMS is expected to be the largest civilian financial management system in the world.

This latest deployment brings the following agencies onto the new financial management platform:

* Office of the Secretary * Health Resources and Services Administration * Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration * Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality * Administration for Children and Families * Administration on Aging * HHS Program Support Center

HHS, which manages the largest budget in the U.S. Federal government, initiated the $219 million program to improve fiscal management and accountability agency wide. In addition to the ability to eliminate reliance on the multiple accounting systems previously used by HHS component agencies, UFMS allows HHS to take advantage of rapid advances in technology to better emphasize accountability and evolving customer needs and expectations.

"This latest release of UFMS continues the transformation of financial management at HHS," said Rick Swanson, vice president for BearingPoint's Federal Health and Human Services account. "BearingPoint is proud of the work this team of government and private sector specialists has accomplished to date. Together we will continue to transform HHS's administrative systems and derive benefits not only for the Department, but the U.S. taxpayer as well."

Previous phases in the UFMS incremental implementation included deploying the general ledger at the National Institutes of Health and the full UFMS system at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration. These early phases allowed the HHS to demonstrate the effectiveness of the system as well as realize tangible benefits early in the development life cycle. The current deployments bring those capabilities to an even larger segment of the department. Additional administrative systems are expected to be consolidated in coming years, further improving HHS' financial management capability, a key element of the President's Management Agenda.

HHS selected BearingPoint as the systems integrator and business transformation agent for UFMS in November 2001. The UFMS program uses Oracle Federal Financials, a federally certified commercial off-the-shelf software package and part of Oracle E-Business Suite.

Children of Verizon Wireless Employees Honor Their 'Superhero' Working ParentsCompany Announces National Winner and Regional Finalists in Children's Art Contest 'Superheroes at Work'

BASKING RIDGE, N.J., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- In celebration of its sixth consecutive year of being recognized as a Working Mother 100 Best Company, Verizon Wireless today announced it has selected Ross Vardaman, age nine, as its national winner in the company's "Superheroes at Work" children's art contest. As the national winner, Ross' artwork will be featured in an upcoming Verizon Wireless ad in Working Mother magazine.

(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20061110/NYF015 )

Open to children of parents employed by Verizon Wireless, the contest asked participants to illustrate what makes their mother, father or parental figure "super" to them. Ross' mother Cindy Vardaman works at Verizon Wireless as a business sales representative. Ross' artwork showed his mom at work in a superhero cape, talking on the phone while thinking of the fun time she had with her son.

"It has been a pleasure to see our employees through their children's eyes and to give our working parents a chance to talk about what they do everyday when they're at work," said Martha Delehanty, vice president - human resources, Verizon Wireless. "Our employees work hard to provide the best wireless experience for our customers and we're proud to support our working parents with an environment that helps them maintain their superhero status both at home and at work."

Verizon Wireless received hundreds of entries from children of employees across the country. The participating children ranged in age from 3 to 12 years old. All entries were judged on the originality and creativity of the entry, the artistic composition and color, and the connection to the theme of the contest. In addition to the grand prize winner, 21 regional finalists were also recognized.

In September, Verizon Wireless placed on the Working Mother 100 list for the sixth consecutive year. The company was recognized for creating a work environment that is especially hospitable to all women, including working mothers. From its Healthy Babies program that helps improve employee quality of life throughout pregnancy and after childbirth, to the Backup Dependent Care program that provides employees with access to back-up caregivers for children, adult/elderly dependents and spouses/domestic partners, Verizon Wireless invests significantly in its employees, offering benefits and programs that help improve quality of life both during and after the workday.

Millsboro Residents to Benefit From Verizon Wireless Network ExpansionInvesting to Stay Ahead of Growing Demand for Wireless Calling, Data Access, and Music

MILLSBORO, Del., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- In a continuing effort to provide the best wireless service for local residents in Millsboro, Verizon Wireless, operator of the nation's most reliable wireless network, has expanded its network with a new cell site. The new site increases coverage and capacity along Dupont Highway and Routes 20 and 24.

This network expansion is part of the company's aggressive multi-billion dollar network investment each year (more than $1 billion every 90 days), including well over $130 million in the Philadelphia Tri-State Region so far in 2006, to stay ahead of the growing demand for Verizon Wireless voice and data services. Verizon Wireless has invested $30 billion - on average $5 billion a year - into its national wireless network over the past six years as part of its commitment to offer customers the most reliable service available, including wireless data services such as picture messaging, text messaging, and the company's exclusive V CAST service. V CAST brings video clips of TV shows, music on demand and other multimedia services to wireless phones over Verizon Wireless' high-speed EV-DO network. BroadbandAccess offers customers the nation's most reliable high-speed wireless broadband network, operating at average speeds between 400 kbps - 700 kbps.

Strong demand for Verizon Wireless services continued during the third quarter of 2006 as the company added 1.9 million net new customers, gaining a total of 7.5 million customers in the last 12 months. Verizon Wireless continues to lead the wireless industry in customer loyalty. In the third quarter of 2006, the company posted a record-breaking low customer turnover rate of 1.2%, well below the rate reported by the other major wireless carriers.

The company's 'nation's most reliable wireless network' reputation is based on network studies performed by real-life test men and test women throughout the country who inspired the "can you hear me now" national advertising campaign. These engineers drive 95 specially equipped vehicles some 220,000 miles quarterly on Interstate, U.S. and state highways as well as major roads and surface streets. Test vehicles are equipped with computers that automatically make more than 750,000 voice call attempts and more than 4 million data tests quarterly on the Verizon Wireless network and the networks of other carriers.

Travelzoo Reveals North America's Top 10 Ski Destinations for Skiers and Non-Skiers

NEW YORK, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Travelzoo , a global Internet media company, today announced North America's top 10 ski destinations for the 2006-2007 winter season, according to subscriber popularity and Travelzoo editors.

The Travelzoo list of top 10 ski destinations was devised from a survey of over 6,500 subscribers who voted for destinations they had visited and would recommend to others. Travelzoo's editors then ranked the most popular destinations for both ski and non-ski activities. Lake Tahoe, Calif. was the top destination with 30% of subscribers' votes. The Northern California location also ranked as Travelzoo editors' favorite with the most to do for both skiers and non-skiers.

North America's Top 10 Ski Destinations for Skiers and Non-Skiers: 1. Lake Tahoe, California 2. Breckenridge, Colorado 3. Park City, Utah 4. Whistler, British Columbia 5. Vail/Beaver Creek, Colorado 6. Taos, New Mexico 7. Stowe/Sugarbush, Vermont 8. Mont Tremblant, Quebec 9. Sun Valley, Idaho 10. Big Bear, California

"We know from our latest survey that almost 20% of travelers* are planning to take a ski vacation this season," said Gabe Saglie, a Travelzoo editor. "But even if you don't get a rush from zipping down a mountain there are a crop of ski resorts that prove there are other ways to enjoy the snow -- from ice-skating, spa treatments and hot air ballooning, to cooking classes, dog sled tours and 24-hour gaming, just to name a few."

In order to find great value when researching ski deals, Travelzoo's deal experts recommend traveling mid-week to find the best lodging deals and shortest lift lines. Skiers can also save money by booking lift tickets as part of a lodging package. To save on airfare it is often a good idea to opt for flying into major airports and driving to ski destinations instead of flying into smaller airports that may be closer to the destination but could add a great deal more to the ticket price.

The Travelzoo Newsdesk reports the following deals to get you back to the slopes:

- The Resort at Squaw Creek, Lake Tahoe, is offering $159 per night for a suite. Normally the rate at this resort would be $299. As part of this deal, the resort is also offering 50% off discounts for select winter recreational activities such as ice skating, snow shoeing, sledding and cross country skiing. - Breckenridge is offering a stay and ski package for $71 per person including continental breakfast and lift ticket to Breckenridge, Keystone or Arapahoe Basin. This is a 60% savings from regular rates. - Orbitz is offering a Park City three-night package in February (prime ski season) for just $341 per person including air from Denver. This is part of a $100 off ski destination sale currently available on Orbitz.

Southwest Airlines Vacations is offering four night packages from $339 per person to Breckenridge, Taos, Lake Tahoe, Park City or Angelfire including air, hotel and lift tickets.

Tri-Vision reports second quarter 2007 results

TORONTO, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Tri-Vision International Ltd./Ltee (TSX: TVL) today reported its financial results for fiscal 2007's second quarter ended September 30, 2006.

Three months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to three months ended September 30, 2005, were:

Q2 2007 Q2 2006 ------- ------- Revenues $ 1,628,927 $ 2,087,924 Cost of Sales $ 1,439,722 $ 891,119 Gross Profit $ 189,205 $ 1,196,805 EBITDA (loss)(x) $ (720,236) $ 379,895 Net income (loss) $ (996,226) $ 14,260 EPS (loss) - Basic $ (0.02) $ 0.00 EPS (loss) - Diluted $ (0.02) $ 0.00

Six months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to six months ended September 30, 2005, were:

Q2 2007 Q2 2006 ------- ------- Revenues $ 3,411,043 $ 4,165,653 Cost of Sales $ 2,664,358 $ 2,367,385 Gross Profit $ 746,685 $ 1,798,268 EBITDA (loss)(x) $ (753,193) $ 652,158 Net loss $ (1,360,359) $ (81,595) EPS (loss) - Basic $ (0.02) $ 0.00 EPS (loss) - Diluted $ (0.02) $ 0.00 (x) Earnings (loss) before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization Complete Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis have been filed and are available on SEDAR at http://www.sedar.com/.

CEO Najmul Siddiqui stated "Despite results at the lower end of our expectations during the past six months, the Company has focused on the continuing development of the Think Broadband business, and the important US V-chip licensing campaign and I am satisfied by the progress made on both of these fronts. Our forecast for the remainder of the fiscal year is for increased revenues and improved margins over the first half of the year."

Revenues for the second quarter were $1.6 million as compared to $2.1 million for same quarter of the previous year. V-chip royalty revenues totaled $0.3 million for the second quarter, compared to $1.5 million (which included a one-time $0.9 million settlement) over the previous year. V-chip royalties were negatively impacted by a combination of factors during the traditionally low volume April to June time period reflected in this quarter. These factors included an oversupply of existing LCD product and difficulty by manufacturers in meeting compliance deadlines in the quarter following the FCC mandate taking effect. Additionally, the digital tuner mandate for televisions under 25 inches, which represents a substantial part of the existing market, does not take effect until March 2007. Management contends that signing 100% of the US market is a reasonable and realistic goal.

In the Company's fiscal second quarter 13 new licenses (2005 - 7 licenses) for the Canadian and/or the United States Patent were signed. In all, 19 licenses (2005 - 10 licenses) have been signed for one or both of the Company's two patents fiscal year to date. Tri-Vision is working with a number of newer licensees to assist their accounting departments to become familiar with reporting procedures. This should result in a smooth reporting process by the Company's 4th quarter.

Cable equipment revenues were up by $0.7 million for the second quarter over the previous year and up 21% for the six-month period of this year. "This marks the turnaround for the Company in the area of cable sales directly contributable to Think Broadband Solutions' business success," commented Mr. Siddiqui. Most notably in the second quarter, Think Broadband sold its all-digital DVB Standard Cable Platform to a regional cable operator -- Nor-Del Cablevision Limited. Nor-Del's southwestern Ontario customers in the Norwich, Delhi, Waterford and Port Dover will employ Canada's Think Broadband's DVB Standard cable television system which is the first wholly-digital platform of its kind in Canada. Think Broadband's contract includes delivery of digital head end, software and installation expertise as well as basic, high definition and PVR cable boxes.

Second quarter gross profit was $0.2 million, representing a gross profit margin of 11%, which was down from 57% in the previous year. Gross profit for the six months was $0.7 million representing a gross profit margin of 22%, which was down from 43% over the previous year. Margins were constrained due to high start-up costs as Think Broadband established itself in the marketplace, but they are expected to improve. Selling, General & Administrative expenses grew somewhat while Research & Development expenses were lower, both of which were in line with expectations. Higher levels of sales activity have also incurred more travel expenses as Tri-Vision's sales force and licensing team have continued their pursuit of new contracts, largely in Asia, at a markedly more intense level than the previous year. Understandably so because the first phase of the FCC's mandated American market requirements took effect only on March 15th 2006 and since then it has fuelled the urgency on the part of manufacturers to license Tri-Vision's V-chip patent - the only open (modifiable) technology available to satisfy the mandate's requirements.

The second quarter recorded a net loss of $1.0 million compared to net income of $14,260 in the second quarter last year; and a net loss of $1.4 million for the six months compared to a net loss of $0.1 million for the same six months of last year. This represents a loss per share for the three and six months ended September 30, 2006, of $0.02 basic and fully diluted compared to nil in the same periods last year.

Mr. Siddiqui concluded "The outlook for fiscal 2007 continues to be good with revenue increases expected for Think Broadband and for noticeable improvements in royalty revenues expected during the second half of the fiscal year and beyond. Fiscal 2008's first half, in particular, will be fuelled by end of year television sales which is the market's strongest quarter for these sales."

Paragon Technologies Reports Improved Sales and Earnings from Continuing Operations for the Third Quarter and Nine Months of 2006

EASTON, Pa., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Paragon Technologies, Inc. , a leading supplier of "smart" material handling systems and "software-driven" warehouse and distribution center solutions, announced today results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Third Quarter Results

Third quarter 2006 results for continuing operations (excluding the 2005 impact of Ermanco) indicate that:

* Sales rose 27% to $5.2 million as compared to $4.1 million in the third quarter of 2005; * Backlog of orders decreased to $4.9 million as compared to $6.9 million at the end of 2005; * Income from continuing operations rose to $239,000 as compared to $61,000 in the third quarter of 2005; and * Earnings per share from continuing operations increased to $0.07 as compared to $0.01 per share in the third quarter of 2005.

Net income for the third quarter of 2006 was $239,000 or $0.07 basic earnings per share, compared to net income of $141,000 or $0.03 basic earnings per share in the third quarter of 2005. Inclusive of Ermanco, net income for the third quarter of 2005 included income from discontinued operations of $80,000 from Ermanco. On August 5, 2005, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Ermanco.

Contributing to income from continuing operations for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the third quarter of 2005 was an increase in sales and gross profit of $1,108,000 and $274,000, respectively, and an increase of $32,000 in interest income attributable to the increased level of interest rates on funds available for investment.

The increase in sales was associated with a larger backlog of orders entering fiscal 2006 when compared to the backlog of orders entering fiscal 2005 and progress made on contracts received during the first nine months of 2006.

Offsetting the favorable impact of the aforementioned items was an increase of $120,000 in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily aimed at bolstering the rate of new orders. These expenditures were primarily attributable to the addition of resources aimed at expanding the customer base and an increase in salaries and fringe benefits; an increase in marketing expenses primarily associated with product promotion, marketing research, and participation in trade shows; and an increase in professional fees and shareholder relations expenditures.

First Nine Months Results

First nine months of 2006 results for continuing operations (excluding the 2005 impact of Ermanco) indicate that:

* Sales rose 21.9% to $14.3 million as compared to $11.7 million in the first nine months of 2005; * Orders totaled $12.2 million as compared to $15.8 million in the first nine months of 2005; * Income from continuing operations rose to $411,000 as compared to $15,000 in the first nine months of 2005; and * Earnings per share from continuing operations increased to $0.12 as compared to $0.00 per share in the first nine months of 2005.

Net income for the first nine months of 2006 was $411,000 or $0.12 basic earnings per share, compared to net income of $1,044,000 or $0.25 basic earnings per share in the first nine months of 2005. Inclusive of Ermanco, net income for the first nine months of 2005 included income from discontinued operations of $1,029,000 from Ermanco.

Contributing to income from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2006 as compared to the first nine months of 2005 was an increase during the first nine months of 2006 in sales and gross profit of $2,556,000 and $1,087,000, respectively, and an increase of $234,000 in interest income attributable to the higher level of funds available for investment as a result of the cash proceeds from the sale of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Ermanco and the increased level of interest rates of funds available for investment. Income tax expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $1,000, primarily as a result of the reversal of accruals for the expiration of tax return statutes and tax-exempt interest on certain investments, compared to income tax expense of $9,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

The increase in sales was associated with a larger backlog of orders entering fiscal 2006 when compared to the backlog of orders entering fiscal 2005 and progress made on contracts received during the first nine months of 2006.

Offsetting the favorable impact of the aforementioned items was an increase of $737,000 in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily aimed at bolstering the rate of new orders. These expenditures were primarily attributable to the addition of resources aimed at expanding the customer base and an increase in salaries and fringe benefits; an increase in marketing expenses primarily associated with product promotion, marketing research, and participation in trade shows; and an increase in professional fees and shareholder relations expenditures.

Development efforts totaling $220,000 during the first nine months of 2006 included DISPEN-SI-MATIC(R) software and hardware and LO-TOW(R) product enhancements, compared to product development expense of $29,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

The Company ended the third quarter of 2006 with a current ratio of 4.33, while working capital approximates $13.3 million.

Joel Hoffner, Paragon's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our increase in sales during the quarter is a natural consequence of the extraordinary backlog coming into the quarter. The lower order entry rate during the quarter is related to the nature of our business, which often sees pending orders delayed as our customers synchronize their capital expenditures with their operational needs. Orders received in October, plus customer directives that will most probably transform to orders in the fourth quarter, would restore our backlog to the levels recorded for the beginning of this year. Our pending order pipeline has some exciting prospects that should impact us early next year."

During the first nine months of 2006, the Company repurchased 438,019 shares of common stock at a weighted average cost, including brokerage commissions, of $8.70 per share. Cash expenditures for the stock repurchases during that same period were $3,809,000.

Since the inception of the Company's existing stock repurchase program in August of 2004, the Company repurchased 1,296,819 shares of common stock at a weighted average cost, including brokerage commissions, of $9.42 per share as of September 30, 2006. Cash expenditures for the stock repurchases since the inception of the program were $12,215,258 as of September 30, 2006.

The Company is currently exploring various business strategies designed to enhance the value of the Company's assets for its stockholders. The Company has retained Penn Valley Management Group, LLC to provide management advisory services, including, but not limited to business planning, mergers and acquisitions, and funding. Additionally, we continue to evaluate and actively explore a range of possible options, including transactions intended to provide liquidity and maximize stockholder value, and consideration of the acquisition of complementary assets and/or businesses.

The Company will host a conference call to discuss these results on Friday, November 10, 2006 at 10:00 a.m. ET. To participate in the call, please dial 1-877-766-2147 and ask for the Paragon Technologies teleconference. Simultaneous with the conference call, an audio webcast of the call will be available via a link on the Paragon website, http://www.ptgamex.com/.

Micrel Announces Industry's First 4.25Gbps, Ultra-Low Jitter Buffer and MUX Family With Fail Safe I/O ProtectionNew Solutions Prevent Output Errors in Hot Swap Applications

SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Micrel Inc., , an industry leader in analog, high bandwidth communications and Ethernet IC solutions, today launched a family of eight new CML, LVPECL, and LVDS buffers and multiplexers that feature unique, patent-pending Fail Safe Input (FSI) circuitry and patented 3-pin internal termination. The new series includes the SY58603U-SY58605U 4.25Gbps CML/LVPECL/LVDS buffers with Fail Safe Input; the SY58606U-SY58608U 3GHz, 1:2 CML/LVPECL/LVDS buffers with Fail Safe Input and the SY58609U-SY58611U 4.25Gbps, 2:1 CML/LVPECL/LVDS MUX ICs with Fail Safe Input. The SY58603U-SY58608U series is currently available in volume quantities. The SY58609U-SY58611U multiplexers will be available in December 2006. Prices for 1K quantities are as follows: the SY58603U-SY58605U: $1.70; the SY58606U-SY58608U: $1.95; and the SY58609U-SY58611U: $1.95. Free evaluation boards for all parts are available.

The SY586xx series offer the industry's first FSI I/O protection. The chips are optimized to prevent unwanted oscillations and maintain output stability when an input signal's swing collapses or disappears. Unlike existing LVPECL or CML buffers or multiplexers currently on the market, the SY58603-11 family prevents a metastable output condition when the input signal is removed or signal amplitude fails. This is especially crucial for rack-based equipment that has many I/O cards requiring Hot Swap capability. The 3-pin input termination simplifies designs and interfaces to any differential signal, AC- or DC-coupled, without any level shifting or termination resistor networks in the signal path.

"The SY586xx series addresses a number of technical challenges for designers," said Thomas S. Wong, vice president high bandwidth products, Micrel. "The Company's Fail Safe Input (FSI) technology protects unwanted oscillations due to various fault conditions at the inputs. This is an ideal feature for Hot Swap applications. Micrel's proprietary design for internal termination is also incorporated to eliminate stubs and improve signal integrity."

The new SY58603U-SY58608U fanout buffers and SY58609U-SY58611U MUX series minimize jitter to preserve signal integrity. To further improve the jitter performance of SY58609-611U, a superior MUX input cross talk isolation design is implemented that reduces crosstalk by up to 70 percent. The new solutions of buffers and MUXes also offer AC performance that guarantees clock frequency throughput up to 2.5GHz, and rise and fall times less than 110ps for LVDS and LVPECL outputs and less than 85ps for CML outputs. Jitter performance is guaranteed to be less than 10psp-p over temperature and voltage. The product family guarantees operation over the full industrial temperature range (-40C to +85C) and supply voltage operation from 2.5V to 3.3V. All solutions are available in MLF(R) packaging which features low inductance and capacitance, making the SY586xx series ideal for today's high-speed, low jitter designs.

Alliance Atlantis Reports Third Quarter Results(x)TSX: AAC.A, AAC.BEBITDA growth reflects continued strength of the CSI franchise- Previously announced international second window sales of CSI contributed $91.3 million to revenue and $40.3 million to direct profit during the quarter - Consolidated EBITDA(xx) of $74.2 million increased by 112% compared to prior year's period, including the benefit of the second window sales - Recorded goodwill impairment of $30.0 million related to Entertainment library in the quarter - Net Earnings of $17.7 million, up 45% compared to $12.2 million in the prior year's quarter - 886,667 shares repurchased during Q3, using $29.6 million of free cash flow(xx) - Strong subscriber revenue growth, up 10% compared to prior year's period

TORONTO, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Alliance Atlantis Communications Inc. (the "Company") reported revenue and earnings growth for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006, driven by strong sales for the CSI franchise.

"We are exceptionally pleased with the performance of the CSI franchise and the previously announced licensing of certain international second window rights which demonstrate the strong interest of CSI around the world," said Phyllis Yaffe, Chief Executive Officer of Alliance Atlantis. "In our broadcasting business, we were pleased with continued strong subscriber revenue gains as well as strong audience growth. While advertising revenue was down slightly year over year, we are pacing well in the fourth quarter and in 2007 we believe advertising revenue will increase in line with the Canadian specialty television market expectations. Over the past 12 months, our advertising revenue is up 7%."

"During the quarter we repurchased and cancelled approximately nine hundred thousand of our Class B Non-Voting shares at a total cost of $29.6 million," said David Lazzarato, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "Since announcing our share buyback during the fourth quarter of 2005, we have used approximately $102.1 million of free cash flow to repurchase approximately 3.0 million shares, representing 7% of the shares then outstanding. We plan to renew our normal course issuer bid when it expires in December 2006 and intend to continue to repurchase our shares in order to help meet our previously announced capital structure objectives."

-------------------------------- (x) This press release contains forward-looking statements and should be read in conjunction with the note on forward-looking statements contained at the conclusion of this release. Third Quarter Financial Results Revenue

Broadcasting revenue of $66.7 million represented an increase of 4% over the prior year's quarter. Subscriber revenue grew by 10% to $33.0 million in the quarter compared to $30.1 million in the prior year reflecting steady growth in paid subscribers. Advertising revenue decreased slightly to $32.1 million for the quarter compared to $33.0 million in the prior year due to slightly lower demand for advertising inventory.

In the Entertainment segment, CSI revenue of $140.2 million was up $89.9 million from $50.3 million in the prior year's quarter. The increase was primarily due to significant previously announced second window license fees recognized in the current quarter offset by a stronger Canadian dollar. The Company recognizes second window license fees from licensing arrangements with existing broadcasters of the CSI franchise when the Company has fulfilled its obligations, which typically occurs ahead of the actual second window availability and payment of the license fees. During the current quarter, the Company entered into several second window licensing arrangements with existing CSI broadcasters and recognized $91.3 million in revenue from these arrangements. The negative impact of foreign exchange rate changes on CSI revenue in the quarter was $12.5 million. The foreign exchange rate for the third quarter of 2006 was $1.13 compared to $1.22 in the prior year's quarter.

The Entertainment - Other segment, which primarily represents sales made from the Company's historical library of program rights, recorded $9.6 million of revenue during the quarter compared to $16.6 million in the prior year's period. The decrease is primarily due to the prior year benefiting from a large sale of one of the Company's programs.

Motion Picture Distribution revenue of $107.0 million was down 8% from $116.2 million in the prior year's period due to a more modest slate of theatrical releases. During the quarter, the Company's broadcasting business acquired programming valued at $16.4 million from the motion picture distribution business, the majority of which relates to library sales. The associated costs and revenues, for our broadcasting and motion picture distribution segments respectively, are eliminated on consolidation.

EBITDA

During the third quarter, Broadcasting EBITDA of $14.3 million decreased 1% compared to the prior year's quarter. This represented an EBITDA margin of 21% compared to a margin of 23% in the same period last year. The decrease is primarily due to higher operating expenses related to programming and marketing costs. Also during the third quarter, the Company invested $0.8 million in operating costs in support of digital media initiatives. This is an important area for growth within the Company and over the next year the costs will continue as the Company ramps up its various digital initiatives including exploration into the user-generated content space.

During the third quarter, Entertainment EBITDA of $59.9 million compared to $12.8 million in the prior year's period. This increase is a result of a $44.9 million increase in direct profit and a $2.2 million decrease in operating expenses. The CSI franchise recorded direct profit of $60.0 million representing a direct profit margin of 43% during the quarter. This compares to direct profit of $23.0 million representing a direct profit margin of 46% in the prior year's period. $40.3 million of CSI direct profit during the quarter is related to the recognition of second window license fees. The increase in direct profit was partially offset by the strengthening Canadian dollar which had a $5.3 million negative impact during the quarter. The decrease in direct margin percentage, as expected, was due to participation costs related to the international second window sales described above. The Entertainment - Other segment recorded direct profit of $4.5 million compared to a direct loss of $3.4 million in last year's quarter. This increase is due to higher impairment charges and royalty and residual costs in the prior year.

Motion Picture Distribution EBITDA during the quarter of $9.4 million compared to EBITDA of $17.5 million in the prior year's quarter. The decrease is a result of lower theatrical revenues as discussed above, as well as non-recurring professional fees and personnel retention costs aggregating $1.7 million.

Corporate and Other expenses were $9.4 million during the quarter compared to $9.8 million in the prior year's period. The decrease is primarily due to lower professional fees.

Amortization

In the third quarter, amortization expense was $2.5 million compared to $3.3 million in the same period last year. The decrease in the quarter is attributable to lower development cost amortization, as well as the prior year including amortization related to certain broadcast intangible assets that are now fully amortized.

Interest

Interest expense of $6.5 million was up from $6.1 million in the prior year's quarter. The increase in interest expense is the result of higher borrowings by Motion Picture Distribution LP ("Distribution LP") under its credit facilities and a higher effective interest rate. The Company's average cost of borrowing in the quarter was 7.0% compared to 5.3% in the prior year's quarter.

Impairment of Goodwill

In the third quarter, the Company completed its annual goodwill impairment testing. As a result, the Company concluded that the carrying amount of goodwill for the Entertainment - Other reporting unit was not recoverable and a non-cash impairment charge of $30.0 million was recorded. The impairment results from a lower expectation of future sales of the Entertainment - Other reporting unit's library of film and television programs.

The Company still expects the library of film and television programs to deliver a steady but declining stream of cash flow for the foreseeable future. The decline in revenues in the Entertainment - Other segment is consistent with the Company's strategy.

The Company will continue to aggressively licence its library of approximately 1,000 titles of programming rights to broadcasters, distributors and other users in various territories throughout the world.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for Income Taxes during the quarter was $17.0 million compared to $10.7 million in the prior year's period. The effective tax rate increased to 44.3% during the quarter from 34.1% in the prior year's period. The increase is mainly the result of certain expenses not deductible for tax, primarily the impairment of goodwill recorded in the quarter, offset by the mix of earnings between different tax jurisdictions.

Non-controlling Interest

Non-controlling interest represents the tax effected 49% interest of Movie Distribution Income Fund in the earnings of Distribution LP and the Company's non-wholly owned broadcasting channels. During the third quarter, non-controlling interest was $3.7 million compared to $8.5 million in last year's period. The decrease is primarily due to lower net income of Distribution LP.

Net Earnings

Net earnings for the quarter were $17.7 million compared to net earnings of $12.2 million for the prior year's period. On a basic and diluted basis, net earnings per share were $0.42 for the quarter, compared to basic and diluted net earnings per share of $0.28 for the prior year's period.

Liquidity

Consolidated Free Cash Flow for the third quarter was an inflow of $52.6 million compared to an inflow of $69.5 million in the prior year's quarter. The three months ended September 30, 2006 was negatively affected by a decrease in non-cash operating balances and the prior year's free cash flow included proceeds from the sale of assets and investments held by the Company. These decreases are offset by an increase in operating earnings.

Consolidated net debt decreased $32.0 million to $342.3 million compared to $374.3 million one year ago. This decrease in net debt is inclusive of $102.1 million used to repurchase shares during the last twelve months. Net debt, excluding non-recourse net debt related to Distribution LP, was $257.5 million, representing a reduction of $67.1 million from the prior year's period. At September 30, 2006, net debt to EBITDA (excluding Distribution LP) was 1.3x.

Outlook

For Broadcasting, steady growth in subscriber revenue is expected to continue for the remainder of the year. Consistent with the traditional sales cycle, advertising revenue is expected to be stronger in the fourth quarter. Margin percentage for the full year is expected to be similar to the prior year as higher margin percentage for our digital channels is offset by incremental investment in programming and online initiatives. The Company expects advertising sales growth for the remainder of the current year and during 2007 to track in line with the Canadian specialty television market expectations. Advertising revenue growth is expected to be driven by stronger demand overall for non-sports broadcast inventory as well as strong ratings growth for the Company's channels. For the 2005-2006 broadcast year the average minute audience was up 21% for HGTV, 25% for Food, 11% for Showcase and 10% for Life Network, over the 2004-2005 broadcast year(1).

The CSI franchise is expected to continue to perform very well as evidenced by strong ratings, including significant year over year ratings growth by CSI: NY, which has joined the other two series in the franchise among the top 10 most watched series on US television(2).

Motion Picture Distribution LP released their financial results on November 8, 2006. For further information on Distribution LP, please refer to their press release or go to their website at http://www.moviedistributionincomefund.com/.

Operating Highlights Broadcasting

During the quarter, the Company had four digital networks ranked in the top 10 for Adult 25-54 average minute audience among the English language digital specialty networks. Showcase Action, Showcase Diva, BBC Canada, and IFC all ranked in the top 10, with Showcase Action maintaining its # 1 ranking among digital specialty networks in the Adult 25-54 average minute audience.

Forward-Looking Statements --------------------------

This press release, in particular the "Outlook" section, contains forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and reflect current expectations of the Company. Forward-looking statements are those that are not historical fact and include, but are not limited to, statements of the Company's expectations and intentions. The reader should not place undue reliance on them. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause them to differ materially from the anticipated future results or expectations expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements are: audience acceptance of our filmed entertainment; our ability to attract advertising revenue; changes to the regulatory environment; actions of our competitors; technological change that increases competition or facilitates the infringement of our intellectual property; cost of production financing; the loss of key personnel; our relationship with filmed entertainment content suppliers and changes in the general economy. Another factor that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations relates to the Company's ability to obtain the necessary regulatory approval to renew its normal course issuer bid on similar terms, which if it were not to occur, could hinder the Company's ability to meet its previously announced objectives with respect to its target capital structure. In addition, there can be no assurance that the process intended to be undertaken by Movie Distribution Income Fund and the Company in relation to their respective ownership interests in Motion Picture Distribution LP ("Distribution LP") will result in a sale by either, or both, of any or all of their respective interests in Distribution LP or that either will consent to any such sale, in whole or in part, by the other or that any necessary regulatory approvals, including from the Ministry of Canadian Heritage and/or the Investment Review of Industry Canada, will be obtained. Additional information about the factors listed above and information about other factors are described in materials filed by the Company with the securities regulatory authorities in Canada from time to time, including the Company's 2005 Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) and the MD&A for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

This earnings release contains the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005.

(xx) Non-GAAP financial measures

The Company uses EBITDA, direct profit (loss) and free cash flow to gain a better understanding of the results of the business. These non-GAAP financial measures are not recognized under Canadian GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance the user's understanding of the Company's historical and current financial performance and its prospects for the future. Management believes that these measures provide useful information in that they exclude amounts that are not indicative of the Company's core operating results and ongoing operations and provide a more consistent basis for comparison between years. The Company uses EBITDA, direct profit (loss) and free cash flow to measure operating performance. The Company has defined EBITDA, calculated using figures determined in accordance with Canadian GAAP, as earnings (loss) before under noted, which are earnings before amortization, interest, equity (earnings) losses in affiliates, investment losses, gain on disposal of assets, foreign exchange gains and losses, impairment of goodwill, income taxes and non-controlling interest. Direct profit (loss) is defined as revenue less direct operating expenses, as defined in note 25 of the Company's consolidated financial statements included in the Company's December 2005 Corporate Report. Free cash flow is defined as the total of cash and cash equivalents provided by (used in) operating activities and provided by (used in) investing activities.

Net debt is defined as the Company's revolving credit facility and term loans, net of cash and cash equivalents.

While many in the financial community consider EBITDA to be an important measure of operating performance, it should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for net earnings, cash flow and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP which are presented in the attached unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company's calculation of EBITDA may be different than the calculation used by other companies and therefore comparability may be affected. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with Canadian GAAP is presented in the Company's MD&A.

(xxx) Alliance Atlantis holds a 51% limited partnership interest in Motion Picture Distribution LP (the "Partnership"), a motion picture distributor in Canada, the U.K. and Spain. The balance of the Partnership is owned by Movie Distribution Income Fund (TSX: FLM.UN).

------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Three Months and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 (Unaudited) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the prior year's periods ended September 30 have not been reviewed by an auditor. Management's responsibility for financial reporting

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") of Alliance Atlantis Communications Inc. ("the Company") are the responsibility of management and have been approved by the Board of Directors.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. When alternative methods of accounting exist, management has chosen those it deems most appropriate in the circumstances. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and information in the MD&A necessarily include amounts based on informed judgments and estimates of the expected effects of current events and transactions with appropriate consideration to materiality. In addition, in preparing the financial information management must make determinations as to the relevancy of information to be included, and make estimates and assumptions that affect reported information. The MD&A also includes information regarding the impact of current transactions and events, sources of liquidity and capital resources, operating trends, risks and uncertainties. Actual results in the future may differ materially from our present assessment of this information because future events and circumstances may not occur as expected.

The Company maintains a system of internal accounting and administrative controls. Such systems are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial information is relevant, reliable and accurate and the Company's assets are appropriately accounted for and adequately safeguarded.

The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring that management fulfills its responsibilities for financial reporting, and is ultimately responsible for reviewing and approving the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and MD&A. The Board carries out this responsibility through its Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board, and all of its members are independent directors. The Committee meets periodically with management, as well as the independent external auditors, to discuss internal controls over the financial reporting process and financial reporting issues. The Committee reviews the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and the MD&A and reports its findings to the Board for consideration when the Board approves the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and the MD&A for issuance to the shareholders.

Booth Demonstrations WNW Radio: Demonstration of the Nova Stingray, one of the smallest SDR radios available today, shows the WNW OFDM waveform running on a Xilinx Virtex(TM)-4 LX60 FPGA. This SCA-compliant radio runs the entire waveform stack (layers 1 through 7), and covers the spectrum from 200 MHz to 2 GHz. The demonstration consists of a streaming video application showing large, continuous, and uninterrupted streams of data. JTRS SDR Kit: Demonstration of the first commercially available development platform to use an SCA-enabled SoC architecture and partial reconfiguration of the FPGA to reduce the modem's size, weight and power. Jointly developed by Xilinx and ISR Technologies, a Virtex-4 FX60 supports the full SCA operating environment on the FPGA's embedded general purpose processor, and supports multiple independent waveforms. Xilinx Customer Hospitality Suite MIMO/OFDM Wireless Platform: Demonstration of the WARP Platform, jointly developed by Rice University and Xilinx. WARP is designed to be a low cost SoC-based platform that can support MIMO and OFDM processing for defense applications, as well as commercial applications such as broadband wireless. This demonstration consists of video streaming wirelessly from one platform to an adjacent platform. FPGA-Based Single Chip Cryptographic Solution: Detailed discussion of a single-chip cryptographic solution using the Xilinx Virtex-4 FPGA.
