Active Control Signs $1.6 Million Exclusive Supply Agreement With MeshDynamics Inc.TSX-V: ACTProprietary Rights of ActiveMine(TM) Technology Are Secured As Intrinsically Safe Certification Anticipated

TORONTO, March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Active Control Technology Inc. (TSX-V:ACT) today announced that it has entered into a reseller agreement with MeshDynamics Inc., the developers and suppliers of ActiveMine's third generation mesh network nodes. The agreement includes a prepayment of USD $1.6 million in exchange for certain exclusive rights to mesh network nodes that incorporate MeshDynamics' proprietary patented and patent-pending Wi-Fi technology. The rights include the right to exclusively sell the nodes to certain specified companies, including coal mines, non-coal mines and coal suppliers that are potential customers for the ActiveMine system and further guarantee ACT a supply of a minimum of 1,000 nodes. ACT has the option to acquire up to 2,000 additional nodes upon further payments. ACT will outsource the manufacturing of the nodes directly using the MeshDynamics technology. The agreement with MeshDynamics will result in a savings to ACT on a per node basis and will secure ACT's access to MeshDynamics' proprietary Wi-Fi technology during the two year term of the reseller agreement.

Management estimates that 40 nodes are required on average per underground coal mine in the U.S. The outsourced California-based contract manufacturer of the mesh nodes has the capacity to produce up to 3,000 nodes per month.

"We are very pleased with our partnership with MeshDynamics and we are grateful for all of their support," said Steve Barrett, President and CEO, Active Control. "We also anticipate that ActiveMine's superior tracking, voice, video and data transmission capabilities will continue to garner sales in the USA and internationally. Solidifying our relationship with MeshDynamics will ensure continuity of supply for this key component of the ActiveMine system."

Concurrently, ACT is moving to convert its international patent application covering aspects of the ActiveMine system into national patent applications in Australia, China, Canada and South Africa. ACT already has such a patent application before the US patent office and ACT may elect to pursue other national patent applications at a later date. The national patent applications will make reference to certain preliminary findings in a written opinion by the international patent office that were favorable towards ACT's prospects of securing a patent over various aspects of the ActiveMine system.

ActiveMine's communications, data and tracking system enables monitoring of production, personnel and equipment in all types of surface and underground mining environments, including coal and base metal mines. The system is designed to:

- Operate on a 100 percent wireless Wi-Fi network backbone. - Be less susceptible to water and mechanical damage of all sorts, including rock fall. - Use open-standards technology. - Comply with relevant U.S. state and federal regulations, including MINER Act requirements for wireless systems as established in MSHA policies. - Provide four-day intrinsically safe battery back-up and power supply. - Provide a wireless communications and data network above-ground to extend underground networks.

Next Generation of Students Playing Major Role in Informing VotersCampus campaign speeches webcasted with Mediasite galvanize student interest in presidential primaries

MADISON, Wis., March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Students at University of Wisconsin-La Crosse are informing their peers on election issues with the help of Sonic Foundry, Inc. , the recognized market leader for rich media communications and knowledge management, and Mediasite, the company's patented webcasting and lecture capture platform.

When Michelle Obama and President Clinton made campaign stops at University of Wisconsin-La Crosse recently, a scheduling conflict kept Sarah Oswald, education major, from attending.

"My goal is to try and listen to as many candidates as possible so that I can hear a variety of viewpoints before I vote," said Oswald. She sent an email to Chancellor Joe Gow asking for the events to be recorded. That email set a webcasting plan into motion that will continue to impact student learning not only at the UW-La Crosse, but nationwide. The University webcasted the speeches using Mediasite and made the web link available on campus giving Oswald and her peers anytime, anywhere viewing ability.

"Watching the speeches online was very helpful in that I was able to listen to the presentations without actually having to be there. I didn't feel liked I missed out on anything because I wasn't able to attend the actual presentation," said Oswald. "The recording was actually better than attending the event because I was able to rewind and see parts that I didn't catch, and review parts that I felt needed further clarification."

Faculty also benefit from the online resource. Joe Heim, political science professor, plans to use the Mediasite presentations over the next year as a discussion platform, zeroing in on the issues as well as the effect students have on the political process.

"These are excellent records to have. I can see using them in a number of my courses including Campaign and Elections, The Presidency, American Government and State and Local Government," Heim said. "Using Mediasite recordings will help students make their choices in the political context. They also help encourage people to vote."

Cecilia Manrique, who also teaches political science, not only met President Clinton but has already reviewed his speech and shared it with her class. "Having this technology really opens up new opportunities for discussion and comment. I can use the Mediasite link in my class, or embed them in my online Desire2Learn course management system. It is a great resource for my classes," she said.

"Recording an event and putting it online via Mediasite really helps with faculty and student schedules. For President Clinton's speech, 3000 people were able to attend the event. On a campus of 8000, that means many students could not be there. Having it online really helps students to connect even though they might have class or work scheduling conflicts," said Heim.

"It was great to see the political speeches because it reaffirmed my voting preferences, and I could go to specific places on the Mediasite presentation to review what the speaker actually said. It puts the viewer in control of what they want to watch, when they want to watch it," said Stacey Eckers, an education major from Sturgeon Bay, Wis. "It is a lot more convenient for me to get these presentations online. If I have Internet access, I can easily get these resources."

In addition to special events like the campaign appearances, the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse uses Mediasite to increase student and faculty access to University information including classroom webcasting, workshops, campus events, foundation development and promotion.

"In the past five years we have seen a dramatic increase in students wanting online resources available for review. Students don't stop learning at 5 p.m. Having online recordings available 24 hours a day helps them both in and out of the classroom," Jim Jorstad, Director of Educational Technologies

UW-La Crosse is continuing to discover how online recordings can benefit the campus and the community. "Mediasite extends the classroom to anywhere the Internet is available, and through it, we not only help expand access to our students and faculty, but also create important connections within our community, nationally and worldwide. It helps us to remember that the Internet is almost always on, and our challenge is to continue to effectively use it to enhance teaching and student learning," said Jorstad.

This announcement is part of Sonic Foundry's next-gen education initiative. With its higher education Mediasite community now topping 500 colleges and universities, the company is highlighting customer stories that exemplify the convergence of technology and education.

For more information about NetSuite Ecommerce Editions please visit www.netsuite.com/ecommerce

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20021024/SFTH024LOGO )

NetSuite brings business software to manage an ecommerce company's web store, shopping cart, front-office and back-office business processes with a single, real-time business software suite. The newly created NetSuite Ecommerce Editions announced today, the introduction of the new NetSuite PayPal Express Checkout integration, and the addition of new ecommerce functionality (please see all three accompanying press releases), give ecommerce companies more power and flexibility in managing their end-to-end business operations.

NetSuite's ecommerce customers speak about their experience with NetSuite Ecommerce Editions and highlight the new features that have added the most value to their business. These companies include:

DealYard.com (www.dealyard.com)

Most Valuable Feature - PayPal Express Checkout.

"PayPal Express Checkout via NetSuite has given our customers a fast, secure and efficient way to checkout from our shopping cart - as they can now pay using their existing PayPal account without having to create a new account on our site," said Rob Heller, president of DealYard.com, based in Westbury, NY. "They get peace of mind and we get their order into the same NetSuite system that runs our web store / shopping cart, ERP / accounting, inventory management and customer relationships, so we can report on conversion rates through the entire lifecycle because all our data is in one place."

Touch-up Solutions (www.touchupsolutions.com)

Most Valuable Feature - Multi-Site.

"With NetSuite we don't have to have disparate accounting, inventory and order management systems for our multiple, separate web stores," said Troy Pait, owner of Touch-up Solutions, in Maiden, NC. "It also allows us to create multiple brands and have separate sites that are directed at different audiences, each with their own distinct look and feel, but they all run out of the same NetSuite back-end so we have a single source of truth about all of our business operations."

Electronics123.com (www.electronics123.com)

Most Valuable Feature - eBay Integration.

"NetSuite has really made the eBay module user friendly," said Johan Smit, president of Electronics123.com, based in Columbiana, OH. "The more items you sell on eBay the more valuable the integration. It's saving us the time and energy of having to do the whole process manually and update information in two places. Instead, we can concentrate on other parts of our business, rather than having to update the system every time an item sells."

AllAboutDance.com (www.allaboutdance.com)

Most Valuable Feature - PayPal Express Checkout.

"We had a lot of requests from our customers for PayPal Express Checkout," said Chris Nash, owner of AllAboutDance.com, based in Kingston, PA. "Once PayPal Express Checkout was added to our NetSuite-powered web store and shopping cart we saw a huge increase in overall PayPal orders. We have been able to keep costs low while saving the company time and providing our customers a higher degree of security and confidence."

DiscounTechnology (www.discountechnology.com)

Most Valuable Feature - Multi-Site.

"Why re-invent the wheel?" said Jesse Menczer, CIO of DiscounTechnology, based in San Diego, CA. "With NetSuite's multi-site capability we can manage our entire business and all our web stores from one application. We've really been able to focus on growing our business thanks to the end-to-end visibility that NetSuite gives us into our ecommerce operations."

Cleverboxes.com (www.cleverboxes.com) Most Valuable Feature - eBay integration and PayPal Express Checkout integration.

"We built the foundation of our business around NetSuite functionality three years ago, and now with the new NetSuite-eBay and PayPal integration it forms an integral part of our current and progressive online sales strategy, taking us to the next level in the company's development," said Vernon Yerkess, Managing Director of Cleverboxes.com, an online e-tailer of branded IT equipment, specialising in Hewlett-Packard, based in North West England. "Previously less than 5 per cent of our business has been via eBay / online sales, but our online sales strategy is to utilise the new NetSuite-eBay-PayPal functionality to help increase that to around 20 per cent. The new functionality allows us to have full audit trail traceability of our eBay-PayPal transactions. Another key benefit is that we can upload / monitor / market as many products online as we want. It's a vital component in our growth strategy."

Canterbury Europe (www.canterburynz.com) Most Valuable Feature - eBay integration and PayPal Express Checkout integration.

"We're a manufacturer and didn't plan to sell on eBay, but when we came on board with our NetSuite Web store last year and learned about the upcoming eBay integration and PayPal Express Checkout, we were excited and put that into our 2008 plan for increased growth," said Dave Adamson, e-commerce manager at Canterbury Europe, a sportswear wholesaler based in Reddish, Stockport, Cheshire (UK). "NetSuite Ecommerce already helped support our 65 per cent growth in online sales last year -- with no stability issues and fewer running costs -- and now in rolling out to this new channel we expect another steady revenue stream. NetSuite-eBay and PayPal Express Checkout will give us the ability to increase sales that we would not have otherwise."

- New Integration Supports Payments in 17 Currencies

NetSuite Inc.(NYSE: N), a leading vendor of on-demand, integrated business software suites that include Accounting / Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Ecommerce software for small and mid-sized businesses and divisions of large companies, today announced the integration between NetSuite's Ecommerce shopping cart and PayPal's Express Checkout online payment service.

As ecommerce has become an important sales channel, online shoppers are increasingly more selective about where they shop and are seeking out merchants that provide safe, convenient shopping experiences. A recent study by PayPal and Jupiter Research published in March 2008 confirms that:

-- 62% of consumers feel more secure when they do not have to enter credit card information online, even at merchants' sites that they trust. -- One out of every three online shoppers wants to avoid filling out name, address and credit card details. -- 66% of consumers prefer online stores that offer multiple payment mechanisms.

NetSuite's integration of PayPal Express Checkout addresses many of these challenges. The addition of PayPal Express Checkout not only gives these shoppers the security of not sharing their financial information with ecommerce merchants, but also provides them the convenience of checking out in just three clicks without needing to re-enter shipping and billing address information.

For merchants, the benefits of NetSuite's PayPal Express Checkout integration are numerous. With NetSuite, they already have real-time visibility into all their business operations in one system -- from the online store, to inventory, fulfilment, shipping, marketing promotions and customer buying patterns for up-sell and cross-sell analysis. The addition of PayPal Express Checkout to their NetSuite-powered Web Stores gives them access to more than 141 million PayPal accounts in over 190 markets around the world. With a large account base of savvy online shoppers, small- and medium-sized businesses often see an average sales lift of 14 per cent (as found by a PayPal survey of e-tailers).

Additionally, merchants can use NetSuite's PayPal Express Checkout integration to accept payments from a variety of sources including credit cards, debit cards, bank accounts and PayPal account balances. With PayPal, NetSuite merchants can take advantage of PayPal's global platform and Accept payments in 17 currencies -- US Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Australian Dollars, British Pound Sterling, Euros, Japanese Yen, and more. Finally, the NetSuite PayPal Express Checkout integration provides fraud protection to help protect merchants against risks associated with ecommerce.

"Security and convenience are critical issues for today's online shoppers and we're thrilled to work with PayPal to provide merchants with a way to deliver both of those to their consumers through the combination of NetSuite and PayPal Express Checkout," said Mini Peiris, vice president of Product Programs for NetSuite. "The thousands of companies that have standardised their ecommerce operations on NetSuite will benefit greatly from the safe and easy buying experience they can offer their shoppers."

"We are excited to work together with NetSuite to deliver on our shared commitment to ecommerce merchants," said Gene Alston, business development director at PayPal. "With PayPal Express Checkout, NetSuite provides online merchants with an ecommerce solution that delivers on the needs of their consumers and contributes to their business' bottom line."

"We had a lot of requests from our customers for PayPal," said Chris Nash, owner of AllAboutDance.com (http://www.allaboutdance.com), based in Kingston, Pennsylvania, USA, which runs its business operations using NetSuite. "Once PayPal Express Checkout was added to our NetSuite-powered Web Store we saw a large increase in overall orders. We have been able to keep costs low while saving the company time and providing our customers a higher degree of security and confidence."

"We built the foundation of our business with NetSuite three years ago, and now the new NetSuite-eBay and PayPal integrations are going to take us to the next level," said Vernon Yerkess, Managing Director of Cleverboxes.com, an online retailer of Hewlett-Packard servers and other hardware, based in Accrington, Lancaster, UK. "Only about 5 per cent of our business has been on eBay, but our strategy is to use this new NetSuite integration to increase that to about 20 per cent. We now have the full audit trail in NetSuite of our eBay-PayPal customers. And we can put as many products in there as we want. We expect that it will absolutely help increase business for us."

Availability and Pricing

Available immediately, the NetSuite PayPal Express Checkout online payment option carries no set-up fees or monthly fees. Merchants pay a per-transaction fee to PayPal of 1.9 per cent to 2.9 per cent plus 30 cents per transaction, depending on monthly sales volume.

Verizon Business Offers Top 10 Tips to Consider When Leveraging IP Networks for Collaborative ApplicationsBusinesses Have More to Consider Than Simply VoIP

BASKING RIDGE, N.J., March 18 /PRNewswire/ -- The global proliferation of IP networks has spurred large businesses and government agencies to adopt voice over IP (VoIP) as a means of controlling operational expenses, improving employee connectivity and productivity, and gaining added flexibility and reliability.

But many chief information officers (CIOs) and information technology (IT) professionals quickly realize that IP offers even more opportunities. For example, it allows customers to implement an advanced set of integrated voice and video applications, including high-definition (HD) video conferencing. Moreover, IP facilitates unified communications (UC), an evolving technology that automates and unifies multiple forms of communications with a common experience, thus enabling greater productivity and better business results.

"Many businesses and government agencies that have seen their organizations expand geographically look to their IT departments to find new applications that keep them unified and competitive in the global market," said Michael Marcellin, vice president of product marketing for Verizon Business.

With this in mind, Verizon Business offers its top 10 tips for CIOs and IT professionals to consider when leveraging and managing IP networks for advanced collaborative applications:

1. Have a Plan: Assess business plans and existing infrastructure to determine what type of collaborative application best suits the needs of your organization across geographical boundaries to help increase productivity and profitability. Only by cultivating an environment in which collaboration is second nature will today's businesses succeed in a 24 x 7 global economy. Consider seeking the help of a service provider with IP expertise and professional services capabilities to provide critical planning, deployment and ongoing management. 2. Tap the Hidden Power of Convergence: With IP and mobile networks converging, the UC approach enables applications that run on the same network to share presence, information and data, fostering a greater level of collaboration among users as well as driving new network efficiencies. 3. Understand That Mobility Is King: For organizations with a highly mobile workforce or with plans for making the workforce more mobile, confirm that the architecture enables the integration of wireless and wireline communications for seamless operation of UC and collaboration applications. 4. Think Globally: As a business expands geographically, embrace applications such as VoIP, messaging, conferencing, mobility and contact center services that can be used by the workforce across the entire IP network. Consider working with a managed services provider to help maintain network and application availability and performance. 5. Keep It Simple: Consider a communications solution that supports remote workers and mobility with real-time call routing and control and provides the same functionality to sites across multiple geographies to simplify network management. 6. Get the Message: E-mail and instant messaging (IM) are proven collaboration technologies because they greatly improve response times among members of the workforce - especially those members of the workforce who are considered "road warriors." 7. Save Time and Money Through Virtual Meetings: Companies can leverage their IP networks to take advantage of the latest virtual meeting solutions, such as net conferencing, HD video conferencing and telepresence. By reducing the time and costs associated with business travel, companies can help lower carbon emissions. 8. Enhance the Customer Experience: Large multinational companies should consider how new IP-based contact center applications enhance the way agents communicate with customers who speak different languages and live in different time zones. Today's contact center applications support Web interfaces, voice, chat and e-mail to handle customer queries in real time. 9. Employ Comprehensive Security: While IP and mobile networks are enabling a new age of voice, video and data applications, security measures shouldn't be overlooked. Think about the extended enterprise and securely reaching partners, customers, employees, suppliers and vendors. 10. Use Remote Management Tools: For applications to operate smoothly across the IP network, IT administrators should use remote monitoring tools to quickly identify and troubleshoot problems.

"Collaboration and application convergence will become a fundamental part of the way we work," Marcellin said. "The real challenge will be instilling the culture to fully leverage the benefits of collaborative tools. With these tips, we hope businesses that utilize IP networks for mission-critical business operations will unleash the hidden power of unified communications and collaboration."

Spectral announces new findings on the effectiveness of EAA(TM)/Toraymyxin(TM) at the 28th International Symposium on Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine- Data demonstrates mortality reduction in endotoxemic patients through use of combined diagnostic and therapeutic -

TORONTO, March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Spectral Diagnostics Inc. (TSX:SDI) today announced that new findings were presented showing a mortality reduction in endotoxemic patients through the combined use of Spectral's EAA(TM) Endotoxin Activity Assay, the only FDA cleared diagnostic for the measurement of endotoxin, and Toray Medical Company's Toraymyxin(TM) column, a blood purification device that absorbs endotoxin from the bloodstream. The findings will be presented in a symposium entitled "Measuring and targeting endotoxin in critical illness - from theory to practice" at the 28th International Symposium on Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine. The conference takes place in Brussels, Belgium from March 18-21, 2008 and focuses on developments in research, therapy, and management of critically ill patients.

"Our unique EAA(TM) diagnostic offers critical care physicians valuable information on the diagnosis of endotoxemia. Used in combination with Toray's therapy, EAA(TM) provides actionable data that has the potential to lead to a reduction in mortality as demonstrated by the findings presented at this important conference," said Dr. Paul Walker, President and CEO of Spectral Diagnostics. "Toraymyxin(TM) is highly effective in removing endotoxin from the bloodstream and our EAA(TM) product has the ability to identify patients who could benefit from the therapy and monitor its results. Together, the combined diagnostic and therapeutic has the potential to provide a more effective treatment for patients with endotoxemia."

Data compiled using Spectral's EAA(TM) will also be featured in several posters being presented at the conference. A manuscript describing the study of the combined use of EAA(TM) and Toraymyxin(TM) is currently being written and will be submitted for publication in 2008.

Verizon Business Helps Del Monte Foods Harvest the Benefits of IP NetworkingVoice-Over-IP Solution Helps Leading Food Manufacturer Streamline Operations, Maintain Business Continuity, Control Costs

BASKING RIDGE, N.J., March 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Business has entered into a new three-year agreement with Del Monte Foods under which the food giant will reap the many benefits of an advanced, converged IP networking system.

By transitioning from a traditional voice and data system to an IP environment, Del Monte Foods will gain the greater capabilities and cost efficiencies that come with deploying a modern integrated communications platform. In addition to communicating more effectively in normal course-of- business operations, the company will be able to implement more effective business continuity plans.

Under the terms of the contract renewal, Verizon Business will provide Del Monte Foods with a Managed Private IP network integrated with both a managed wide area network and a managed local area network, linking 4,500 employees at 40 sites. Verizon Business will combine Verizon IP Trunking and Managed IP PBX to deliver an advanced voice-over-IP solution to Del Monte Foods' operations, providing end-to-end network management, PBX expertise and an advanced monitoring system.

Del Monte Foods also uses Verizon Audio Conferencing services to enhance collaboration and productivity among its employees, while benefiting from reduced business travel costs and associated carbon emissions.

"By running voice traffic over our wide area network, we're now able to leverage voice over IP for business continuity and disaster recovery purposes, and also control costs by eliminating the need for separate local phone lines in each of our locations," said David Glenn, director of IT enterprise operations with Del Monte Foods. "Making this move to IP is enabling more efficient, higher-performing communications both internally and with our customers."

Verizon Business' IP Trunking is ideally suited for large-business customers with a deployed IP PBX. Service is delivered via a standards-based SIP (Session Initiated Protocol) trunk directly to the customer's IP PBX, which eliminates the need for additional TDM enterprise gateways or TDM cards and the associated maintenance costs.

Verizon IP Trunking customers benefit from Inbound Failover, a feature that automatically forwards calls to another IP address to enable business continuity in the event of unforeseen circumstances. Unlike calls in the public switched telephone network that require costly and manual remote call- forwarding, IP Trunking enables IP calls to route to an alternate endpoint for completion. In addition, Verizon IP Trunking customers can take advantage of Burstable Enterprise Shared trunks (BEST), which allow customers to use idle trunk capacity in one location to accommodate an increase in traffic from another location. This helps customers better manage utilization of their local and long-distance traffic by sharing capacity on-demand.

"Del Monte Foods is among the trailblazing companies that are transitioning to IP networking," said Tony Recine, vice president of specialized services with Verizon Business. "With the extensive reach of our VoIP and MPLS footprints, our network infrastructure and Managed Services expertise, we're enabling customers to focus on their core business, while also transforming the way they do business, and allowing them to leverage world-class solutions to help enhance their operations and bottom line."

Glenn said, "Verizon Business offers the best solutions to fit our needs, and we work well together. We also benefit by combining into our contracts the services that Verizon Business offers and leading customer premises equipment, enabling us to realize additional cost savings."

The Managed Service Advantage

Many companies today are realizing that managed services offer the best of all worlds. Managed services can help enterprises overcome the inherent complexity associated with moving voice applications onto data networks, especially since problems on the local or wide area network can be misconstrued as issues with the IP PBX. Enterprises also are finding managed services offer a cost-effective and efficient method for streamlining management of the converged networks, including the integration of headquarters, branch and remote sites. In addition, Verizon Business provides ongoing support via its Managed Services Network Operations Center and IMPACT, its proprietary fault-management system that helps reduce requirements for enterprise-provided in-house technical support and 24 x 7 monitoring systems.

Verizon VoIP Portfolio

Verizon Business' comprehensive portfolio of VoIP services comprises five offerings that can be employed as stand-alone or in combination to create individual customer solutions. The VoIP services are: IP Flexible T1 (available only in the United States), IP Integrated Access, IP Trunking, Hosted IP Centrex and Managed IP PBX.

Verizon VoIP solutions enable high-quality voice communications in a converged network environment, leveraging Verizon Business' vast national and international footprint and a wide range of innovative features. Verizon Business is a leader in developing and delivering IP solutions helping large businesses and government agencies transition to VoIP on their own path and pace. The VoIP services also allow customers to use their existing infrastructure, enabling them to mix and match services, whether network or premises-based.

About Del Monte Foods

Del Monte Foods is one of the country's largest and most well known producers, distributors and marketers of premium quality, branded food and pet products for the U.S. retail market, generating more than $3.4 billion in net sales in fiscal 2007.

AT&T Expanding Wireless, Broadband Coverage in Michigan; Plans to Invest $46 Million in Network Upgrades in 2008Investments in Wireless Networks Top $221 Million During the Past Three Years

DETROIT, March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AT&T Inc. , the world's largest communications company, announced today that the company plans in 2008 to invest more than $46 million in the Michigan network to expand wireless coverage.

AT&T plans to add new cell sites and roll out its higher-speed third-generation (3G) wireless network to new cities and areas across the state. This year's investment brings AT&T's three-year wireless network investment in Michigan to more than $221 million.

This year, new sites and other network enhancements will be deployed in the following areas to expand wireless coverage for consumers and businesses:

-- Improving coverage and capacity in metro Detroit and mid-Michigan, including Grand Rapids, Lansing, Kalamazoo and Flint. -- Adding 3G service in metro Detroit and Flint. -- Upgrading emergency generators throughout the state to ensure uninterrupted service during a commercial power outage. -- Working to improve coverage in the Dobson areas in northern Michigan -- including Traverse City, Mount Pleasant, Cadillac and Ludington -- in time for the busy summer travel season.

"High-quality coverage and the ability to communicate wherever you are and however you want -- those are our goals," said Brian Ducharme, vice president and general manager for AT&T's wireless operations in Michigan. "Customers rely on us for exceptional service, and this investment is a testament that being the best communications and entertainment company for our customers is paramount."

"Investing in technology, especially wireless technology, is vital to our state's success and the stability of our economy," said state Sen. Bruce Patterson, chairman of the Senate Committee on Energy Policy and Public Utilities. "Investment announcements like this show that Michigan's telecommunications environment is positive, and we in the Legislature need to continue to shepherd that environment and encourage future investment."

AT&T has delivered dramatic changes in Michigan through the introduction of a 3G wireless broadband network. This year AT&T will expand its wireless 3G network in the U.S. to more than 80 additional cities, including expansion from Detroit to Lansing and Grand Rapids, which is home to Grand Valley State. This planned expansion will bring AT&T 3G wireless services to nearly 350 leading U.S. markets by the end of 2008, including all of the top 100 U.S. cities.

AT&T's 3G wireless network makes it possible for customers to quickly access feature-rich wireless content -- including videos, games and pictures and the latest music, entertainment, news and weather -- on their 3G handsets through MEdia(TM) Net, the company's mobile Internet portal.

AT&T 3G customers also can take advantage of Video Share, a first-of-its-kind technology in the U.S. that allows users to share live video during a wireless call. The AT&T 3G network also offers AT&T BroadbandConnect mobile customers faster speeds for their laptops in 3G markets, with the ability to send and receive large files. They also can access the Internet, their company's intranet and corporate e-mail. Users seamlessly transition to AT&T's EDGE network if they move outside a 3G area.

"We're committed to providing the newest and most innovative products and services to our Michigan customers," said Gail Torreano, president of AT&T Michigan. "The investments by AT&T will continue to have a positive impact on our customers, the state and our communities."

AT&T diligently monitors the quality and coverage of its wireless network. Third-party vendors assess the company's network performance, and AT&T network engineers constantly monitor the network and drive approximately 175,000 miles annually across the state to ensure that the network is operating at peak efficiency.

AT&T's wireless network is based on Global Systems for Mobile communications (GSM) technology, the most open and widely used network platform in the world. AT&T plans to roll out the nation's first High Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) network by midyear, which will provide even faster capabilities to HSUPA-enabled laptop users, allowing them to send large files and take advantage of the latest interactive Internet and business applications.

Garmin(R) Named Global Leader in Portable Satellite Navigation

CAYMAN ISLANDS, March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Garmin Ltd. today announced that it is the global leader in portable satellite navigation sales, having sold more personal navigation devices (PNDs) in 2007 than any other manufacturer. The research was provided by Canalys, a leading independent technology market analyst firm.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20061026/CGTH082LOGO)

"These figures validate our associates' hard work and commitment to innovation, value, and satisfying our customers," said Cliff Pemble, Garmin's president and chief operating officer. "What's even more impressive is that these figures only include PND sales, and do not include the robust demand for Garmin's outdoor, fitness, marine, and aviation products which further broadens our leadership in location-based products and services."

Garmin's market breadth is another major reason why it can lay claim to the title of global satellite navigation leader, having delivered an industry leading 31 million GPS-enabled devices since the company's inception in 1989. Garmin posted $3.18 billion in revenue in 2007, a 79 percent increase over 2006. In addition to 115 percent revenue growth in the automotive/mobile segment in 2007, Garmin posted a 19 percent revenue gain in its outdoor fitness segment, a 22 percent gain in marine revenue, and a 27 percent revenue increase in its aviation segment. The three non-automotive segments accounted for more than a quarter of Garmin's overall revenue in 2007.

"Garmin achieved the worldwide number one spot for mobile navigation devices in 2007 by performing consistently well in Europe, more than doubling its shipments on 2006 and increasing its market share, while also retaining its clear lead in the booming U.S. market, which grew to represent 34.7 percent of the total worldwide market in 2007. Garmin had an enviable 47 percent share in the US in 2007, and the market quadrupled in size," said Chris Jones, Canalys vice president and principal analyst.

About Garmin

The global leader in satellite navigation, Garmin Ltd. and its subsidiaries have designed, manufactured, marketed and sold navigation, communication and information devices and applications since 1989 -- most of which are enabled by GPS technology. Garmin's products serve automotive, mobile, wireless, outdoor recreation, marine, aviation, and OEM applications. Garmin Ltd. is incorporated in the Cayman Islands, and its principal subsidiaries are located in the United States, Taiwan and the United Kingdom.

Nokia N82 in Black - Postcards From the Cutting-EdgeMultimedia Computer Excels as Travel Companion With Photography, Navigation and Internet Connectivity

ESPOO, Finland, March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Nokia today unveiled the Nokia N82 in stylish black, bringing a blend of state-of-the-art imaging, integrated navigation and high-speed Internet connectivity to the Nseries range of converged devices. This jet black multimedia computer enables people to "geotag" the images they capture - allowing them to not only be saved by date, but by location as well. This adds to a line-up of compelling photography features, including a 5 megapixel camera, Carl Zeiss optics and a Xenon flash. Not only does the Nokia N82 take great pictures, array of advanced connectivity features makes it easy for consumers to share their discoveries, journeys and locations. The Nokia N82 in black is expected to start shipping within weeks, with an estimated retail price of approximately 400 euros, before taxes and subsidies.

"The Nokia N82 is made for storytelling," says Juha Kokkonen, Director for Nokia Nseries devices. "As one of Nokia's leading-edge connected camera, the Nokia N82 in black captures people's journeys and discoveries. With built-in A-GPS it even helps people to find new places by pairing 'contextual' information with a wide array of connectivity features such as Wi-Fi and HSDPA. We make it easy for consumers to quickly share those moments as they happen."

When it comes to camera capabilities, the gloss-black Nokia N82 is set to wow world travelers and photography enthusiasts alike. The 5 megapixel camera, powerful Xenon flash and Carl Zeiss optics, ultra-fast camera activation, autofocus with a dedicated assist lamp, fast reloading between shots and DVD-like quality video capture all ensure that special moments can be captured "picture perfect" - even in low light conditions.

Taking advantage of its integrated A-GPS functionality and high resolution camera, the Nokia N82 automatically tags images with capture location metadata, making it possible to view the capture location on a map either on the Internet or on the device itself. When it comes to sharing, consumers can upload their pictures or videos directly from their Nokia N82 to services like Share on Ovi, Flickr or YouTube. By installing Nokia's exclusive and free Sports Tracker application, consumers can share their whereabouts and travel route with others on the Sports Tracker website - including the capture locations of images. The Nokia Sports Tracker is a GPS based activity tracker that runs on Nokia smartphones. Information such as speed, distance and time are automatically stored in the application, and can be shared with others.

Urbanistas explore the world

To showcase this exciting application, several explorers took off across the globe, each with a GPS-enabled Nokia N82 as their travel companion. On http://www.nseries.com/urbanistadiaries, people around the world could follow these intrepid travelers, and share the experience in near real-time through images captured on each explorers' device. The Sports Tracker widget tracked the explorers' location and marked the spot where each image was taken on a constantly updated map. The widget has now been embedded in many blogs and social networking sites.

So that everyone can track and share their own journeys, stories and pictures with friends - just like one of the explorers - the Sports Tracker mobile widget will soon be made available with many new and existing S60-based converged mobile devices. It is also possible to share and compare travel routes or workouts with friends or the Sports Tracker community. Others' journeys can also be browsed by location, for example to find a more exciting travel route.

The Nokia N82 is a true travel companion and supports microSD memory cards of up to 8GB which allow the device to hold the user's choice of up to 3,600 high-resolution pictures, 5 hours of high quality video capture, up to 6,000 songs or all of the available regions for the Nokia Maps application.

ACS Awarded $25 Million Safety Camera Contract by Winnipeg, CanadaAward caps successful 18-month period for ACS in Canada

DALLAS, March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Affiliated Computer Services, Inc. today announced a contract to operate an intersection safety camera program for the City of Winnipeg, Canada. The five-year, competitively bid contract has a value of $25 million, with options for future years.

ACS has been Winnipeg's public safety traffic camera program partner since the city implemented the program in 2003. The city was the first major jurisdiction in Canada to use intersection safety cameras to address both red light running and speeding at intersections. Winnipeg's program presently includes the enforcement of 48 intersections and 10 mobile speed enforcement vehicles, as well as a dedicated ACS processing facility employing 50 people.

The Winnipeg award caps one of the most successful 18-month periods for ACS' public safety photo enforcement program in Canada, with five contract renewals and five competitively bid contract awards, in addition to Winnipeg.

"Our long association with ACS has helped improve public safety in the city of Winnipeg," said Chief of Police Keith McCaskill. "Our experience with photo enforcement technology clearly shows it deters dangerous driving behavior. With ACS' involvement, we continue to have an effective method to assist us in our efforts to protect our citizens by reducing traffic-related violations, collisions and injuries."

ACS currently processes violations, generates and mails notices, maintains all camera equipment, and produces program reports. The new contract also allows for the introduction of digital technology.

"We applaud Winnipeg for operating the most complex and innovative photo enforcement program in North America," said Norman Dong, ACS vice president, Transportation Solutions. "Canada is very important for our business, and we look forward to competing for other major opportunities to improve public safety through technology."

In the past 18 months, in addition to Winnipeg, ACS has received competitively re-bid contracts with the Alberta cities of Fort McMurray, Red Deer, St. Albert, and Strathcona County, as well as with Regina, Saskatchewan. Renewed contracts have been awarded by Camrose, Alberta, and in Ontario with Hamilton, Ottawa, Region of Peel, and Toronto. With an intersection safety presence in five provinces, ACS has processed more than 2 million photo enforcement tickets in Canada since 2000.

Based in seven provinces, ACS' more than 700 employees in Canada provide services to commercial and government clients, in addition to photo enforcement services. These include Canadian city and provincial jurisdictions, as well as government entities outside Canada.

In the U.S., ACS provides photo enforcement services to large jurisdictions, including Atlanta; Baltimore; Cleveland; Dallas; Denver; Portland, Ore.; Providence, R.I.; Raleigh, N.C.; San Francisco; Los Angeles County, Calif.; Montgomery County, Md; and the State of Illinois.

ACS' Transportation Solutions business helps government agencies in more than 30 countries address their challenges through revenue collection and regulation compliance services. Our industry-leading solutions include electronic toll collection, public transport fare collection, parking fare collection, public safety photo enforcement, commercial vehicle credentialing, traffic and parking violation processing and collection, and port management services.

VIASPACE Reports on Market Penetration for Clean Energy Products

PASADENA, Calif., March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- VIASPACE Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: VSPC) today reported on the company's progress providing clean energy solutions for the growing global renewable energy market. Business unit VIASPACE Energy has launched a line of alternative energy products, generated increasing revenue from sales of its new fuel cell and lithium battery testing equipment, entered into an agreement to sell a new line of batteries, established a global sales and distribution network for its testing and fuel cell energy supply products, received inquiries from major auto manufacturers, automotive test systems providers, fuel cell developers and instrumentation companies, and identified new areas of opportunity.

VIASPACE Energy is focused on the portable power marketplace, where demand is quickly rising for advanced batteries and fuel cells to meet the high energy density, size and safety requirements of portable electronics and automobiles. Large electronics companies including Samsung, Toshiba, Hitachi and NTT/Fujitsu have demonstrated notebook computers and cell phones powered by direct methanol fuel cells. Global sales of hybrid vehicles are estimated to increase to 1.1 million units by 2010. Battery and fuel cell test equipment and specialized batteries are key elements of the company's strategy targeting the $8.9 billion advanced battery market.

VIASPACE CEO Dr. Carl Kukkonen commented, "VIASPACE has achieved significant progress in the renewable energy sector. We have established ourselves as providers of leading edge clean energy solutions, delivered fuel cell and battery testing products that outperform the competition, and are now generating revenue from sales of those products while investigating additional applications, products and technologies."

Dr. Kukkonen continued, "While we are currently bound by confidentiality agreements preventing us from announcing company names or specifics in many cases, VIASPACE is working closely with major auto manufacturers, global electronics companies and fuel cell developers. These potential customers are interested in access to our technology and products to provide an edge over their competitors. The outlook for our VIASPACE Energy division is extremely bright as we continue to penetrate the rising market for clean energy products."

VIASPACE's newly launched VIASENSOR HS-1000 Humidity Sensor product is finding significant traction in the marketplace with sales to numerous government laboratories, universities and fuel cell companies in the United States, Europe and Asia. Recently announced customer wins include Ballard Power Systems, FuelCellMaterials.com, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Wonatech, Scitech, Tokai Bussan Co. Ltd., Hephas Energy Co., Ltd., Energy Research Centre of the Netherlands and Rotronics. FuelCellMaterials.com placed an initial $200,000 order and signed an exclusive distribution agreement for VIASPACE Energy products in the Americas. VIASPACE's proprietary leading edge HS-1000 is the first accurate real-time, high temperature, laser-based humidity measurement system for hydrogen fuel cells.

VIASPACE has been asked by a major global manufacturer of measurement systems to provide a quote for a very large number of VIASENSOR HS-1000 units to operate in the control system of future fuel cell powered automobiles. Additional validation of the humidity sensor's quality and performance was received when the HS-1000 was extensively tested by one of the world's largest automotive companies and compared to competing approaches. The VIASENSOR HS-1000 beat the competition in a series of rigorous, third party administered tests, and that major automotive company placed an order. That company has potential requirements for hundreds of VIASENSORS.

VIASPACE has also licensed and commercialized a new battery testing technology from Caltech to measure the health of rechargeable batteries. The BA-1000 Battery Electrode Health Analyzer product was introduced in February 2008 with the first sale to the DOE's Pacific Northwest Laboratory. The company believes this revolutionary product will significantly aid in the effort to develop new, safe rechargeable batteries for mobile phones, notebook computers, portable electronics and hybrid and electric vehicles.

Adding a significant new source of revenue to its clean energy business, VIASPACE announced in a recent press release that it has contracted to market and distribute a line of battery products from Yoku of Hong Kong, with a factory in Zhangzhou, a major manufacturer of lithium polymer batteries and battery packs. The lithium polymer batteries are a form of lithium ion batteries that provide enhanced safety and sizing flexibility for high power applications including electric vehicles.

VIASPACE subsidiary Direct Methanol Fuel Cell Corporation (DMFCC) is engaged in developing, manufacturing, distributing and obtaining safety certification for disposable methanol fuel cartridges to provide the energy source for fuel cell-powered products including mobile phones and laptops. It is estimated that each fuel cell powered computer or cell phone will use over 70 cartridges over its estimated three-year lifetime. It is projected that over 3 billion cartridges will be used annually at a retail price of $3-$5 each. This is a $9 to $15 billion dollar market that does not exist today, one in which VIASPACE is expected to play a major role. DMFCC has worked alongside major corporations including DuPont, Toshiba, NEC, Hitachi and Samsung on international committees to define safety standards for fuel cells and fuel cartridges and has incorporated those standards into its designs. The company has also established a global manufacturing and distribution network with key partners in the U.S. and Asia.

VIASPACE has recently provided fuel cell cartridge samples to one of the largest global electronics companies. These samples were designed by DMFCC and manufactured by Japanese partner firm, the Sato Group. The cartridges met the customer's specifications and were incorporated in their fuel cell powered systems for corporate evaluation. DMFCC is actively working on projects with multiple fuel cell manufacturers in Korea, Japan, Singapore and other countries to provide fuel cartridges.

VIASPACE Energy is also exploring new opportunities including power supplies for electronic bicycles, power tools and medical equipment, hybrid (fuel cell and lithium battery) power technology, and measurement of water vapor and carbon dioxide in gasoline and diesel powered automobiles to enable measurements that could improve fuel economy and reduce emissions.

About VIASPACE: Originally founded in 1998 with the objective of transforming proven space and defense technologies from NASA and the Department of Defense into hardware and software solutions that solve today's complex problems, VIASPACE benefits from important patent and software licenses from Caltech, which manages NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

HONG KONG, March 18 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hutchison Telecommunications International Limited ('Hutchison Telecom'; 'the Company'; 'the Group'; HKEx: 2332; NYSE: HTX) today announced its results for 2007 delivering a strong underlying performance and strategic initiatives for the future.

Key highlights: -- Record profit for the year of HK$67,776 million -- Mobile customer base rose 57% to nearly 10 million -- Turnover increased 13.8% to HK$20.4 billion -- EBITDA up to HK$5.3 billion despite start up costs for Indonesia and Vietnam -- India operations treated as discontinued with HK$69.3 billion gain on disposal recorded -- Indonesian operations achieved two million customers and prepares for accelerated roll out -- Vietnamese operations conversion to GSM confirmed -- Conditional agreement signed for the sale of Ghana operations Financial highlights: 2006 2007 Change HK$ HK$ % million million Continuing operations: Turnover 17,923 20,401 13.8% Operating profit before impairment, disposal of investments and others 1,373 1,027 -- Operating profit/(loss) 1,417 (2,819) -- Loss for the year from continuing operations (823) (2,726) -- Profit from discontinued operations 2,399 70,502 -- Profit for the year 1,576 67,776 -- Profit attributable to equity holders of the Company 201 66,884 -- Basic earnings per share HK$0.04 HK$14.01 --

In 2007 we have undertaken several initiatives to position the Group for new opportunities. We capitalised on the opportunity to crystallise a significant return on investment, returned substantial cash to shareholders and positioned the Group as one of the best capitalised telecom companies in the region. 3G uptake accelerated in Hong Kong and Israel allowing these businesses to perform strongly, whilst the launch of operations in Indonesia and rapid expansion in Sri Lanka to over one million customers continue to deliver momentum from our growth markets. In addition we received approval in Vietnam to convert our CDMA network to GSM; reorganised the balance sheet for Thailand and signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding with CAT Telecom and entered into an agreement for sale of our business in Ghana which is subject to regulatory approval.

Results review

Against this backdrop turnover increased by 13.8% to HK$20,401 million reflecting a 57% growth in the customer base to nearly 10 million, increased usage especially in 3G and favourable foreign currency exchange rates. EBITDA increased to HK$5,253 million despite losses at our start up operations in Indonesia and Vietnam, and HK$223 million non-cash charge for employee stock options, representing an EBITDA margin of 25.7%. Excluding the start up operations the EBITDA margin would have been 29.4%. After a one off impairment charge of HK$3,854 million previously announced for our Thailand operations, 2007 operating losses were HK$2,819 million. Excluding the impairment charge, the operating profit was HK$1,027 million, reflecting strong underlying performances from Israel and Hong Kong mobile, which were up 25.4% and 81% respectively.

Interest expenses were offset by substantially higher interest income from the Group's retained cash balance in the second half of the year. The loss from continuing operations was HK$2,726 million. Excluding the net impact of the impairment charge and associated tax credits, there was a profit from continuing operations of HK$707 million compared to a loss from continuing operations of HK$823 million in 2006.

The sale of CGP Investments (Holdings) resulted in the recognition of a one time gain on disposal of HK$69,343 million.

Largely as a result of the profit on disposal, profit attributable to equity holders of the Company was HK$66,884 million and basic earnings per share of HK$14.01.

Strategic steps

To create the framework and structure for further profitable growth a number of strategic steps were implemented:

-- In Indonesia, we announced today our agreement to sell up to 3,692 towers to PT Profesional Telekomunikasi Indonesia ("Protelindo") , a specialist tower company, for a consideration of approximately HK$3.9 billion (US$500 million) which is expected to generate a profit on disposal of approximately HK$1.8 billion. As already announced in November 2007, we teamed up with Excelcomindo in a tower sharing deal which allows access to roll out our network on their base station towers. We have also signed an extension contract with Nokia Siemens Network for a further 2,800 sites and an additional turnkey contract with ZTE to build our network in the Indonesian islands of Kalimantan and Sulawesi. Together these moves will enable us to speed up our network expansion and release capital to invest in other aspects of our operations. Through these moves we are targeting to have 6,000 sites by the end of 2008; -- In Vietnam our operations have just received an Investment Certificate to convert from CDMA to GSM. This development opens up the business opportunity for the Group in a market where we are convinced of the growth potential and enabling social economic fundamentals. We will commit HK$1.5 billion of capital expenditure to this development in 2008 with the target of achieving 3,000 sites by March 2009. We have also revised our cumulative capex plan to 2010 upwards to HK$4 billion; -- In Thailand we previously announced the signing of a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding with CAT Telecom positioning our operations to become a nationwide operator on sound commercial grounds. As there is no certainty over the completion of the MOU we have repaid substantially all the external debt and written off our investment through a HK$3,854 million impairment charge taken in this set of results; and -- In Ghana we have entered into an agreement to sell the business to EGH International Limited for a consideration of HK$584 million. The sale is currently pending regulatory approval.

Dennis Lui, Chief Executive Officer of Hutchison Telecom said: "2007 was a year of transformation for Hutchison Telecom. We capitalised on the opportunity to crystallise a significant return on investment allowing us to return substantial cash to investors and repay debt, leaving the Group with sufficient cash resources to confidently address the future. We have also made significant strides to address the Group's business in Vietnam, Thailand and Ghana sharpening our edge to achieve profitable growth. In Indonesia we have made an exciting start and, as with Sri Lanka, have found ways to increase the rate of network expansion. This together with the continued momentum of our established businesses will be our focus in 2008."

Tim Pennington, Chief Financial Officer said: "We returned HK$32.2 billion to shareholders in 2007 and repaid over HK$14 billion of debt. In 2008 we will invest HK$7 billion in our existing businesses and seek opportunities to deploy our HK$35 billion cash resources to expand the Group's footprint."

"At this stage in the global business cycle we take great comfort in maintaining a strong balance sheet. We currently have roughly 50% of our total assets in cash and this position will be reviewed by the Board at the end of 2008 if it remains the case," added Tim Pennington.

Operations review Indonesia -- Customer base to 2,039,000 -- Network extended from Java to the major cities in Sumatra -- Tower deals to raise HK$3.9 billion and provide access to many more sites

Our Indonesian operations continued to maintain the strong growth momentum since launch supported by continued network roll out. We added 412,000 net additions to the base in the last quarter taking it to 2,039,000. The majority were mainly prepaid customers in line with the market.

We have during the year taken a number of steps to aggressively expand the network having extended coverage to the major cities in Sumatra. We have signed an agreement to sell our existing tower portfolio to Protelindo for approximately HK$3.9 billion (US$500 million) which is expected to release capital for reinvestment in the network, underpinning our commitment to focus on customer service. We have also extended the network supply agreement with Nokia Siemens Network for a further 2,800 sites and entered into a turnkey contract with ZTE to roll out in the islands of Kalimantan and Sulawesi. As a result of these steps we are targeting to have 6,000 sites by the end of 2008.

In 2007 capital expenditure was HK$1,794 million which we expect to increase to HK$4 billion in 2008 as part of an overall investment of HK$12 billion to 2010.

Turnover for Indonesia was recognised for the first time in 2007 of HK$117 million with a Loss Before Interest, Taxation, Depreciation and Amortisation ("LBITDA") of HK$475 million, compared to LBITDA of HK$123 million in 2006 reflecting the start up status of the business.

At the end of 2007 there was a total of HK$3.7 billion invested in the Indonesian business. The Group's investment to date is HK$1.4 billion with the balance provided by our partners and loans.

Vietnam -- Conversion to GSM confirmed -- CDMA new customer acquisition stopped -- Business slowed in second half on pending GSM approval

Vietnam is one of the most vibrant and high growth mobile markets in the region. It has a large young population with mobile service penetration well below the regional average making it an attractive market.

HT Mobile launched using CDMA technology. The vast majority of the customers in the market, however, use GSM technology which is not compatible with CDMA. As a result there are significant operating difficulties when it comes to competing within a market dominated by GSM. Reflecting the difficulty of competing with GSM in a market like Vietnam, we have applied for and been granted an Investment Certificate permitting HT Mobile to convert its CDMA network to GSM. HT Mobile has already stopped new customer acquisition and will concentrate on the speedy transition to a GSM network with a target of 3,000 sites by March 2009.

HT Mobile moderated its promotion activity in the second half of 2007 and focused on the application for conversion to GSM. As a result, the 2007 customer base of 152,000 was close to that for the first half and turnover for the year was HK$ 40 million with capital expenditure below initial estimates at HK$ 799 million.

LBITDA was HK$228 million, compared to LBITDA of HK$44 million in 2006 reflecting the costs of the first full year of operations. After depreciation and amortisation, which was expensed for the first time in 2007, the operating loss was HK$279 million.

Hong Kong and Macau

Combined turnover from the Group's fixed-line and mobile businesses in Hong Kong and Macau was HK$7,211 million. EBITDA was HK$2,476 million and the EBITDA margin was 34.3%.

Hong Kong and Macau mobile -- Customer base increased 13.5% to 2,427,000 in 2007 -- 3G customers base is now 1,144,000 -- Turnover increased 13.7% to HK$4,775 million -- EBITDA increased 16.5% to HK$1,572 million

In 2007 the Group's mobile operations in Hong Kong and Macau continued to set itself apart by reporting strong growth momentum particularly in the 3G customer segment in Hong Kong. Turnover increased 13.7% to HK$4,775 million compared with HK$4,199 million in 2006 on higher levels of average revenue per user ("ARPU") from the 3G customer base and more usage of data and content services. EBITDA was 16.5% higher at HK$1,572 million representing an EBITDA margin of 32.9%. The EBITDA margin on underlying mobile telecommunication service revenue increased to 36.5%. Operating profit increased 81.0% to HK$447 million compared with HK$247 million in 2006.

We ended the year with 2.4 million customers of which 2.1 million were in Hong Kong and 283,000 in Macau. During 2007 the 3G customer base increased to 1.1 million and today stands at 1,144,000. 3G today is the most significant part of our business representing 45% of the total customer base and even more of our revenues. According to the data from industry source we believe we have over 50% share in the 3G market.

The strong growth in the share of postpaid 3G customers in our overall base fuelled the growth in postpaid ARPU which is now 4.8% higher than the same quarter last year. This has been driven by an increase in both voice and non-voice usage. Non-voice usage now represents 17% of postpaid ARPU.

Hong Kong fixed-line -- Turnover at HK$2,436 million, like-for-like growth of 11.8% -- EBITDA increased 3.4% to HK$904 million

We reported the turnover of HK$2,436 million for fixed-line operations which, after excluding inter-group reclassifications, represented a like-for- like growth of 11.8%.

The international and carrier business, which is the largest business segment, saw increased traffic resulting in a 7% turnover growth to HK$1,035 million. In the corporate and business segment more bandwidth demanding applications resulted in a 25% increase in revenue to HK$704 million. The residential market though experiencing limited volume growth as a result of heavy competition registered an 8.4% increase in revenue to HK$668 million.

EBITDA was HK$904 million after one off charges of HK$53 million. This represented an EBITDA margin of 37.1% up from 36.3% last year.

Israel -- Customer base up 7.2% to 2,860,000 -- Turnover increased 18.9% to HK$11,650 million -- EBITDA up 18.4% to HK$3,765 million

Our Israeli operations, Partner Communications, reported strong financial and operating results for 2007. Turnover increased 18.9% to HK$11,650 million benefiting from favourable currency movements and the growth of the customer base which delivered higher usage in content and data services. The growth of the 3G customer base played an increasingly important role in the turnover growth and increased profitability. Out of a total customer base of 2,860,000 at the end of 2007, 633,000 were 3G customers. The 3G customer base is now 738,000.

EBITDA was 18.4% higher at HK$3,765 million with a margin of 32.3% compared to 32.5% in 2006. The underlying EBITDA margin based on mobile telecommunication services revenue was 37.1%.

Partner Communications continued to invest in its network in 2007, with capital expenditure increasing 16.2% to HK$985 million from HK$848 million in 2006.

Sri Lanka -- Customer base increased 104% to 1,141,000 -- Turnover jumped 52.4% to HK$189 million -- EBITDA up 52.5% to HK$93 million

Our Sri Lankan operations performed well in 2007 fuelled by our continued network expansion during the year and a series of efforts to enhance our sales and distribution network in the country. The operation once again doubled its customer base with 1.1 million customers at the year-end. Turnover increased by 52.4% to HK$189 million in 2007. Benefiting from the rapid growth in the customer base, EBITDA was 52.5% higher at HK$93 million compared to HK$61 million in 2006, maintaining the margin at 49.2%.

Thailand -- Customer base increased 34.3% to 978,000 -- Turnover down 4.3% to HK$973 million -- EBITDA negative at HK$14 million on licence recharge provision

Turnover fell 4.3% to HK$973 million despite gains in its customer base. The base increased by 250,000 in 2007 but those gains were primarily in the prepaid segment which typically have a lower ARPU. LBITDA was HK$14 million missing the Group's target for a positive EBITDA largely as a result of a provision for licence fee claimed by CAT Telecom of approximately HK$60 million.

In the absence of a nationwide network the Group sees limited opportunities for the business; as a consequence it has continued the strategy to limit the Group's exposure to the operations in Thailand. During the period the Group has repaid substantially all the external debt and taken an impairment charge of HK$3,854 million to write off our investment in Thailand. As a result our Thailand operations now represent 4.8% of the Group's turnover and 1% of the Group's total assets.

Despite a reduction of capital expenditure to HK$41 million, the Thai operations did not achieve the target to have EBITDA covering capital expenditure in 2007. However, the target would have been met without the provision for licence fee claimed by CAT Telecom.

Ghana

On 17 January 2008, an agreement was signed to sell Kuwata Limited which holds the Group's indirect interests in the Ghana operations to EGH International Limited for a cash consideration of HK$584 million. Completion of the transaction is currently pending regulatory approval.

Outlook

In 2007 we positioned Hutchison Telecom to prepare it for the challenges ahead. We capitalised on the opportunity to crystallise a significant return on investment, return substantial cash to shareholders and leave the Group with cash resources for future investment. With the conversion to a GSM business in Vietnam, the reorganisation of the Group's operations in Thailand and the impending sale of the operations in Ghana, we have taken positive action to address the most pressing challenges facing the Group. Meanwhile the Group's 3G investments in Hong Kong and Israel are beginning to deliver whilst the rapid expansion of networks in Indonesia and Sri Lanka are sowing the seeds for the Group's future growth momentum.

A significant proportion of the Group's balance sheet is in cash at the present time. In view of the global uncertainty in markets it is appropriate to be well capitalised. We will, however, seek to develop opportunities in emerging telecoms markets to deploy the cash in operations that meet our criteria to create long-term value for our shareholders. In the event that such opportunities do not exist the Board will review the appropriate capital structure for the Group at the end of 2008.

In the meantime, with its existing businesses, Hutchison Telecom has an attractive balance between businesses that offer excellent cash generation and those that offer attractive growth prospects. This will require continued investment in the expansion of our businesses with capital expenditure in 2008 to be approximately HK$ 7 billion.
