Verizon Wireless: 100 Percent of Upstate New York Wireless Broadband Network Now Enhanced With Faster Speeds

ROCHESTER, N.Y., June 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Wireless announced today that all of its CDMA 1x Evolution-Data Optimized (EV-DO) network in Upstate New York and nationwide has been enhanced to Revision (Rev.) A technology. The enhancements throughout the company's wireless broadband network provide customers across the region and from coast to coast with access to e-mail, everyday corporate data, the Internet and more at faster speeds and with the ability to upload files eight to nine times faster than before.

Verizon Wireless provides EV-DO service in the following areas in Upstate New York:

* the greater Buffalo-Niagara area; * east along the New York State Thruway to the greater Rochester area, including nearly all of Monroe County and into Livingston, Ontario and Wayne counties; * along the Thruway corridor to the greater Syracuse area, including most of Onondaga County and northwest toward Oswego and east toward Utica; * the greater Albany-Schenectady-Troy area and north through Saratoga Springs and Glens Falls * south along the I-87 corridor to the greater Poughkeepsie and Orange- Dutchess-Ulster county area; * the greater Binghamton area and west along the Route 17 corridor to the Elmira-Corning area; * the greater Ithaca area.

"Earlier this year, we announced we were making the nation's first wireless broadband network even better by significantly improving network speeds and performance," said Dick Lynch, executive vice president and chief technical officer for Verizon Wireless. "In just the first two quarters of this year, we made that pledge a kept promise. When other carriers still operate networks that don't allow customers to download music over-the-air or access e-mail at speeds faster than dial-up, Verizon Wireless is meeting the needs of more than 210 million people with wireless music downloads, faster access to e-mail and true wireless broadband Internet browsing."

The enhanced network allows Verizon Wireless customers to download files at speeds as much as ten times faster than customers of other wireless service providers that use different broadly deployed network technologies.

BroadbandAccess at Faster Speeds

The company's flagship business data service, BroadbandAccess, runs faster and more efficiently with the new network enhancements; customers can take advantage of upload speeds that are eight to nine times faster than before plus interact with Web-based applications with improved latency for an even better experience. For example, BroadbandAccess customers with Rev. A- compatible devices can now expect average download speeds of 600 kilobits per second (kbps) to 1.4 megabits per second and average upload speeds of 500-800 kbps, which means customers can download a 1 Megabyte e-mail attachment -- the equivalent of a small PowerPoint(R) presentation or a large PDF file -- in about eight seconds and upload the same-sized file in less than 13 seconds.

Devices that take advantage of the faster speeds provided by the EV-DO Rev. A network enhancements include the USB720 wireless modem, V740 ExpressCard, AirCard 595 and PC5750 PC Cards from Verizon Wireless, which are fully compatible with the company's enhanced and existing wireless broadband networks and the company's NationalAccess network (based on CDMA 1xRTT technology).

Network Testing

Verizon Wireless dedicates a team of technical professionals, real-life "test men and women" across the country, to monitor and test the network every day to ensure efficient operation. The quality testing teams drive a fleet of 98 specially equipped test vehicles almost 1,000,000 miles annually on city streets, major highways, secondary roads and rural roads to test network performance, call quality and data network performance on the Verizon Wireless network and the networks of up to seven other wireless carriers. Annually, they place more than three million test calls and perform 16 million data tests.

The information they gather is used not only to compare performance with competitors', but also to help engineers plan the company's annual $6 billion network improvement program, including placement of new cell sites and expansion of existing call capabilities in growing communities. Verizon Wireless has invested $37 billion in the last seven years to increase the coverage and capacity of its national network and to add new services.

NUR Macroprinters Reports 2006 ResultsRevenue Increased and Net Losses Decreased Significantly Operating Income of 0.8 Million Excluding "Share Based Payment" Expenses

LOD, Israel, June 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- NUR Macroprinters Ltd. (NURMF.PK), a leading supplier of wide-format inkjet production printers for the printing industry, reported its financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2006, which are also reflected in the annual report on Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 29, 2007.

Revenues from product sales and services were approximately $78.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2006, a 9.2% increase compared to approximately $71.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase in revenues of $6.6 million is primarily due to the increased demand for our UV based inkjet printers in Europe and America and the increased revenue from ink products and services.

The gross margin in the year ended December 31, 2006 was 34.3% compared to 27.2% in the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase in the gross margin is primarily attributable to the better management of our spare parts inventory that resulted in a significant decrease of inventory write off ($0.8 in 2006 compared with $2.7 in 2005) and the improvement of our margins on ink revenue as the percentage of ink manufactured by NUR increased compared to ink purchased from third parties

Operating loss in the year ended December 31, 2006 was $0.5 million compared to $9.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2005. Excluding "share based payment" expenses (see bellow), the year ended December 31, 2006 would have resulted with operating income in the amount of $0.8.

Beginning January 1, 2006, we account for equity-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment". As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R) our loss before income taxes for 2006 is $1.3 million higher than if we had continued to account for equity-based compensation under APB No. 25.

Interest payments, in connection with bank debt that was restructured in 2005, in the amount of $1.3 million were recorded as a reduction to the carrying amount of the debt (accrued interest) in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 15 "Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructuring".

Net loss in the year ended December 31, 2006 was $1.9 million, or $0.03 net loss per share compared to $14.7 million, or $0.46 net loss per share in the year ended December 31, 2005.

In the beginning of 2007, $6.1 million (net) was raised through the private placement of 11,734,950 ordinary shares to various investors at a price of $0.54 per share. The investors also received warrants to purchase additional 3,520,485 ordinary shares at an exercise price of $0.65 per share, exercisable for a period of five years following the closing of the private placement. The private placement included two stages, an initial closing resulting in net proceeds in the amount of $3.7 million in January 2007 and a follow-on investment resulting in net proceeds of $2.4 million in February 2007.

Telecommunication Systems Refinances March 2006 DebtAmended Bank Agreement Enables Early Retirement Of Notes; Accretive To Net Income By Approximately $450,000 Per Quarter Starting Q3 07

ANNAPOLIS, Md., June 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- TeleCommunication Systems, Inc. (TCS) , a global leader in mission-critical wireless communication technology, announced it has refinanced $10 million of its long-term debt under an amended bank term loan agreement with SVB Silicon Valley Bank. SVB Silicon Valley Bank is the commercial banking arm of SVB Financial Group .

Term notes issued in March 2006, which were carried net of discount at about $8 million, had 14% per annum interest and were due in March 2009. They were retired early with a five-year SVB bank term loan at a prime-based interest rate, or 8.5% as of today. At the time of the refinancing, there were no borrowings outstanding under the company's revolving line of credit with SVB, which originated in May 2002. The interest rate on any future borrowings under the $22 million revolving credit line has been reduced to the bank's prime rate.

"This facility allows us to pay off a higher cost obligation, while continuing a banking relationship that has supported the changes in our business for more than five years," said Maurice B. Tose, TCS chairman, president and CEO. "Our updated arrangement will also enhance our flexibility in taking large orders under our new federal satcom contract vehicles and other opportunities, while reducing financing expense by about $450,000 per quarter, including about $140,000 of cash interest."

Financial reporting of the transaction will include a one-time non-cash charge of about $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2007 for the write-off of the unamortized discount and deferred debt issuance expenses associated with the March 2006 financing.

"We've been impressed by the trend of TCS's performance in its continuing businesses," said Andrew Rico, senior relationship manager for SVB Silicon Valley Bank. "We look forward to continuing our partnership with TCS and supporting their continuing growth."

Next Inning Technology Publishes State of Tech Report: Updates Outlooks for Altera, Xilinx, Lattice Semiconductor, and Actel

PRINCETON, N.J., June 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Next Inning Technology Research (http://www.nextinning.com/), a subscription service focused on semiconductor and technology stocks, announced it has published the State of Tech report with updated outlooks for Altera , Xilinx , Lattice Semiconductor , and Actel .

New subscribers will also receive Next Inning's Q2 State of Tech report, a $149 value, free when they sign up for a complimentary 21-day trial subscription to Next Inning. In its entirety, the State of Tech report is nearly 100 pages chock-full of charts, tables, and actionable investment commentary designed to help investors capitalize on the upcoming earnings season:

https://www.nextinning.com/subscribe/index.php?refer=prn504

In his State of Tech report, Editor Paul McWilliams wrote: "Beyond the two programmable logic leaders, there are three additional companies in the sector that merit consideration as potential, albeit much more speculative, investments. While the long-term might work out for any or all of these three companies, for various reasons, I believe it is best to view these potential investments as speculative and, as such, with a short to mid-term perspective..."

McWilliams also looks at these topics:

-- Is Wall Street coming around to McWilliams' long held view about broader tech market trends that will benefit Xilinx and Altera? At what price would McWilliams add shares of these stocks?

-- With Lattice's stock now rebounding from recent lows, does McWilliams believe it offers a favorable balance of risk and reward?

-- In the absence of complete financial results from Actel over the last several quarters, can investors still feel confident in considering the stock at current prices?

Founded in September 2002, Next Inning's model portfolio has returned 276% since its inception versus 102% for the Nasdaq.

BEIJING, Jun. 29 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- PacificNet, Inc. , a leading provider of gaming technology, e-commerce, and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) services in China, today announced that it is about to open the joint venture with Japan-based Bellsystem24 (http://www.bell24.co.jp/), Japan's largest telemarketing call center services provider, on June 29 in Shanghai. The executives of PacificNet and Bellsystem24 will address the opening ceremony and many key customers from both sides will also be invited to attend.

Bellsystem24 is Japan's largest telemarketing, call center and CRM Service Company providing a variety of services for pursuing one-to-one marketing, such as call center, marketing solutions, media entertainment solutions, as well as pharmaceutical and medical support services. Bellsystem24 is based in Tokyo, Japan, and has over 5,000 clients, 27,348 communication service representatives and 33 offices throughout Japan.

The two parties signed the joint venture agreement in January of 2007, under which it indicated that PacificNet owned 40% equity stake and Bellsystem24 owned 60% of the new joint venture company to be named BELL-PACT Consulting Limited. The aggregate investments in this joint venture are expected to amount to USD$643,000. The joint venture will principally offer CRM call center consulting and training services, technical and business consulting services, network product sales, software development, system integration, as well as value-added services and other relevant services.

"We are excited to be having an opening ceremony only 6 months after signing the joint venture agreement. We appreciate the hard work of Bellsystem24's management team as well as to those who have helped make this happen so quickly and go so smoothly," said Tony Tong, Chairman and CEO of PacificNet. "We have worked closely with Bellsystem24 during the past years and the opening of the new company represents a significant step forward in our business relationship. The joint venture aims to expand the company's penetration into China's huge CRM call center market. This strategic alliance with Bellsystem24 enables the two companies to present a wider range of product offerings to the Chinese market. Our customers will benefit from the reinforced size and scale of the combined entity together with our proven quality of service. The joint venture enhances the capabilities of PACT while at the same time strengthening the competitiveness of our CRM services. In merging, we have fulfilled one of the strategic objectives of PacificNet and are well positioned to be one of the leading CRM providers in Asia."

Yukio Sonoyama, President and CEO of Bellsystem24 said, "Bellsystem24 has cultivated the CRM know-how over twenty years in Japan. It is very significant for our business growth to develop our know-how in the dramatically flourishing Chinese market. I feel very convinced of the success in this partnership with PacificNet, which has achieved admirable business results in China. The Chinese market is expected to continue growing and we aren't restricted by any short-term goals thus leveraging the chemistry of the two companies. We would like to expand the markets in diverse sectors, especially telecommunications and finance which Bellsystem24 has perfected, by setting mid-term and long-term goals."

"We believe that there are compelling synergies between the two companies," said Victor Tong, President of PacificNet. "Bellsystem24's large base of Japanese clients is a good niche for us, especially for those with Chinese operations. With China's huge domestic market, many Japanese companies are rapidly opening operations. The combination of our infrastructure in China and Bellsystem24's experience and relationships in Japan should enable us to improve our position to capture a greater portion of this growing market. It is always our aim to create good relationships between our clients and their users.

MTV Introduces WannaBeMade.com, Giving Viewers the Tools to Embark on Their Own Personal Development JourneysNew Season of 'Made' Premieres Saturday, June 30th at 12:00pm ET/PT With Special Three-Hour EventLaunch of WannaBeMade.com Marks Introduction of Fifth Online Web site to Launch in Two Months

NEW YORK, June 29 /PRNewswire/ -- MTV: Music Television's Emmy-Award winning series "Made" has chronicled the struggles of a generation of young people on their paths to personal fulfillment. Now, a new online community from MTV, WannaBeMade.com, allows viewers to launch their own personal development journeys with the help of others. Along the way, all the emotions -- the ups, the downs, the setbacks and the leaps forward -- will be captured and expressed on-air as part of the new season of "Made," which premieres at 12 p.m. on Saturday, June 30 with a special three-hour event and coincides with the launch of the site.

WannaBeMade.com provides a path for viewers to connect with -- and inspire -- one another as they work toward achieving specific personal goals. The site also compels them to give back to the community by becoming personal development 'coaches' who share their own expertise and trials with others. The most emotional and rewarding stories will be incorporated into the current season of "Made."

"'Made' taps into the powerful desires of our audience who relate to the young men and women they see on-air," said Christina Norman, President, MTV. "With the launch of this site, we are providing a natural extension that will engage each viewer beyond simply watching the show and, instead, empower them to live and document the transformative process for themselves."

"WannaBeMade.com will connect our audience in very personal ways to one another," said Brian Graden, President of Entertainment, MTV Networks Music & Logo Group. "The site will allow them to see their growth reflected online and on television, two very powerful platforms that validate and substantiate their journeys."

By simply visiting WannaBeMade.com, viewers who chose to "wanna be made" can quickly and easily find coaches to help them in a potentially endless amount of areas -- from cheerleading to acting, break dancing to becoming a prom queen. A viewer, for instance, who wants to be made into a surfer can find surfing aficionados who can recommend all the right boards, offer tips on techniques, and share insight about the best surfing spots for beginners, experts and everyone in-between. Every journey will be chronicled on the viewer's profile page including diary entries and a personal progress rating.

WannaBeMade.com joins MySuperSweet16.com (based on the hit show "My Super Sweet 16"), YoMomma.tv ("Yo Momma"), ShortCircuitz.tv ("Short Circuitz") and RealWorldCasting.com ("The Real World") as the fifth online vertical launched by MTV in the last two months and comes on the heels of other initiatives focused on user-generated content and personal expression, including the 2007 MTV Movie Awards. Each of the initiatives is designed to tap into viewers' creativity and provide paths for their work to appear on-air, whether it's chronicling their own Sweet 16 party, submitting videos of themselves telling their own "Yo Momma" jokes, delivering parodies of pop-culture events like the ones they see on "Short Circuitz," or spilling out their guts out in a 'confessional' hoping to become the next member of 'The Real World' cast. The best entries, as judged by the specific communities, are expressed on-air.

The new installment of MTV's "Made" will premiere on Saturday, June 30th beginning at 12pm ET/PT with a special three hour event, including:

-- Cast members from the hit ABC Daytime soap, All My Children, teaming up with three less than focused , popular, suburban BFF girls with a secret passion for acting competitively against each other for the chance of a lifetime -- to be MADE into a soap opera star & score a guest-starring role on the show; -- Diem Brown -- best known from MTV's Fresh Meat Challenge -- battled and beat ovarian cancer. Now she wants to regain confidence in her body and feel like a woman again by being 'made' into a confident, sexy ballroom dancer; and -- Deep in the heart of Indiana, Bloomington High North and Bloomington High South have shared a long rivalry in sports and in music but now it's personal. Jeremy, a junior at North, and Chelsey, a senior at South, will both try to be MADE into rockers by winning the citywide Battle of the Bands. Rock star coach Ryan Key from Yellowcard, will help Jeremy, a know-it-all geek whose music is completely misunderstood, as well as Chelsey, a cute actress/dancer who longs to be a triple threat entertainer but fears she is tone deaf.

HOUSTON, June 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- US Dataworks, Inc. , a leading developer of payment processing solutions, today announced financial results for its fiscal 2007 fourth quarter and year-end results ended March 31, 2007.

Revenues for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2007 were $2,312,926 compared with revenues of $2,075,992 for the same period a year ago. Loss from operations for the fourth quarter was $1,159,698 compared to an operating income of $232,130 for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2006. Net loss for the fourth quarter was $1,308,655 or $(0.04) per share, compared to a net loss of $47,694 or $(0.00) per share, for the corresponding period in the prior year.

Revenues for the year ended March 31, 2007 were $7,069,575 compared with the revenues of $6,975,177 for the same period a year ago. Loss from operations for the year ended was $2,964,826 compared to an operating loss of $409,365 for the year ended March 31, 2006.

"Fiscal 2007 was one that has allowed the Company to evolve into other revenue generating businesses, which should yield dynamic results in fiscal 2008," said Charles E. Ramey, Chief Executive Officer of US Dataworks. "The source of our optimism is our new relationship with Hyundai Syscomm, which has already, in a short order, delivered initial revenues of $1.0 million. We are highly pleased with our resale agreement with Hyundai Syscomm and believe this new source of business could potentially magnify our revenues from Fiscal 2007. As our ATM /teller-less kiosk revenues expand, which are expected over the coming quarters, we anticipate approaching profitability."

"Another highlight during the fiscal year was the 64.7% improvement in our recurring, transactional-based revenues, which were $1.5 million for the year, due to new customers added during the year and a steady growth of transactions processed by our existing customers," noted Mr. Ramey.

Mr. Ramey concluded, "We believe that the demand for our software and professional services will continue to grow steadily with anticipated ramp up in production of our existing and new customers and the inevitable adoption of Back Office Conversion. In addition, we believe our alliance with Hyundai Syscomm will facilitate new channels of revenue generation utilizing our industry leading payment processing software, Clearingworks(TM). As a result, we are estimating fiscal 2008 revenues to be in the range of $12-$16 million, which is expected to produce profitability."

CCID Consulting: 3G Brings New Growth Opportunities for Mobile Phone Service Market

BEIJING, June 29 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- CCID Consulting, China's leading research, consulting and IT outsourcing service provider, and the first Chinese consulting firm listed in Hong Kong (Hong Kong Stock Exchange: HK08235), says 3G brings new growth opportunities for the mobile phone service market.

Amidst all voices of discussion, 3G mobile communication is drawing closer to China. Along with it, the mobile phone service market will greet these new growth points in 3G services. In 2007, mobile phone users in China are continuing to grow quickly in number. By the end of this April, there were 480 million mobile phone users in the country. Meanwhile, mobile phone consumers' after-sales services are attracting growing attention from all levels of the industry chain, and becoming a focal point for operators, manufacturers, third party service providers and the government. Enterprises have gone beyond the primitive model of "traditional services" and started to transform from simple repair services to personalized, diversified and user-oriented services. CCID Consulting's eighth survey of mobile phone users' satisfaction with their services shows that China's mobile phone after-sales service industry has topped 3 billion Yuan in size. With the application of 3G products, new services such as valued-added services have grown quickly. In the future, mobile phone services will continue their fast growth trend, topping 7 billion Yuan in the next 5 years. In the face of the opportunities which 3G brings to the mobile phone service market, the key for enterprises to seize the first market opportunity lies in how vendors, operators and services providers are pursuing consumers' differentiated demands and forming personalized services.

Mobile phone vendors: expand non-warranty repair services, and push forward new 3G services

Services currently provided by mobile phone vendors are mainly divided into warranty repair services and non-warranty services (non-guaranteed services and new services). In 2006, non-warranty mobile phone repair services were still in a dominant position, accounting for 79.6% of the overall repair services. Value-added services became a new flashing point in the market, experiencing a notable rise in both market size and share. Its total market size reached 270 million Yuan. In 3G competition, mobile phone vendors have introduced end products with more related functions, while diversified product functions are bound to push forward the growth of value-added services. With the increase of mobile phone functions, users' demand for services has also grown. For example, regarding the video transmission function, which has attracted a lot of attention, vendors can make use of their online service advantages and directly provide users with such news services as plug-in downloading. The wider range of applications for 3G functions has also put forward higher requirements for vendors' services. Some emerging services will become new growth areas for mobile phone vendors.

Operators: customized services growth deepens integration in service industry

Currently, operators are gradually gaining an important position in the mobile phone industry. Operators' relevant services affect not only product functions but also after-sales services for mobile phones. In the future 3G market, customized mobile phones will get more market shares. The emergence of such customized products will bring more customization businesses to operators. Meanwhile, after-sales repair services for the customized products will also be brought into the spotlight. Through their head office or provincial branches, operators can coordinate and unify their after-sales service resources, and introduce professional after-sales service management platforms.

Due to their focus on service product development and maintenance, operators do not have notable advantages in professional repair. This actually promotes operators to cooperate over after-sales services with other enterprises in the services industry. In the cooperation process, operators can fully exhibit their 3G-related services in the application and maintenance areas. Services providers can also provide operators with total after-sales service solutions and greatly push forward their future business growth. Therefore, the emerging market of operator services will be a focus of attention in the future 3G market.

Services providers: value-added 3G services are becoming a new profit growth point

With the wide-ranging applications of music, TV and games in mobile phones, mobile entertainment and businesses will become new flashing points in the market. In the future, more 3G-based technologies will be used to make information highly portable. To adapt to market changes, service providers must continue to upgrade the content of their mobile phone services. While operators provide value-added services to meet changing user demand, a new direction for development has also been suggested for mobile phone service content. This thus specifies the new profit growth point for mobile phone services.

The 3G concept is gradually gaining in popularity. Service providers can take this opportunity to introduce serial 3G experience activities. While publicizing their own services, they can lay the foundation for expansion into the future 3G market. The greatest feature of experience-based services is its ability to highlight personalized user experiences. To a certain extent, the promotion of experience-based services has broken the inherent model of traditional services. In face-to-face contact with consumers, service providers can have a more intuitive feeling of service needs. As 3G services offer huge profit margins, improving service capabilities and seizing the first market opportunities are the ways for enterprises to take up the new value-added market.
