Covers.com Chooses Phantomfiber to Extend Their Content To Mobile Devices In Real-Time.
17 January 2003

PRESS RELEASE

Halifax, Canada -- Comprehensive Sports Information Limited (which operates www.covers.com) today announced the availability of Covers Wireless, a real-time wireless Sports application that delivers rich, interactive Covers.com content to Pocket PC® and Palm OS® devices.

Powered by Phantomfiber (www.phantomfiber.com), Covers Wireless is designed for real sports fans that crave information as it happens. Without the steep learning curve, the ability to receive rich interactive content on a PocketPC® or PalmOS® device in real-time is a huge benefit for fans on the go! Live Odds, Team Matchup Statistics, Injury Lists and Covers Articles represent the suite of Covers.com content available to the Covers Wireless user.

"We were looking for a favourable solution with our users in mind which would optimize their mobile experience. Phantom Fiber was an easy choice to produce the perfect wireless content solution for the everyday sports fan," said Paul Lavers, CSI Limited's CEO.

The Phantom Fiber Wireless Framework sets the bar in wireless application design and delivery for the wireless networks of today and tomorrow. The Phantomfiber solution uses the full capabilities of handheld devices delivering rich graphics, unparalleled responsiveness and full sound and animation. Phantomfiber's Framework is designed from the ground up to marry compelling graphics with device sensitive presentation capabilities. Enabled by capitalizing on Phantomfiber's proprietary Smart Stream™ data transmission techniques, the result is a superior audiovisual user experience that sets the performance for the wireless industry.

"The availability of digital tone, convergence of voice and data devices and dramatic price decreases of PDA and smart phones are all signals that despite a slow start - wireless is certainly gaining huge momentum. Covers not only recognized this trend but wanted to capitalize on it. From the onset, both our organizations knew it would be a perfect fit. Whether the user chooses the static download or the real time communication features, their experience is exciting and viral", said Jeff Halloran, Phantom Fiber's President & CEO.

A fully functional free download of Covers Wireless for PocketPC® and PalmOS® devices is available to the public at http://www.covers.com/covers/mobile/mobile_PhantomFiber.asp
