Industry = Telecommunications

Press Release Summary = OAHU, HAWAII, August 11, 2006 - WifiTastic, LLC. creators of
an instant, out-of-the-box hotspot for wireless networks, today officially
introduced its public BETA program. WifiTastic enables any broadband subscriber to
create a revenue generating hotspot providing high speed, wireless internet access
to users of WiFi-ready laptops, PCs, Macs, and PDAs. BETA testers can register now
at www.WifiTastic.com.

Press Release Body = By setting up a commercial hotspot, owners can earn money by
charging people in the vicinity of their wireless router to connect for a fixed
hourly, daily or monthly fee. While the company provides a suggested pricing model,
WifiTastic owners can determine their own rates. Users can connect to the router,
pay by credit card, and then access the Internet. WifiTastic handles the billing
and returns 60% of the proceeds directly to the hotspot owner.

"WifiTastic is the easiest, fastest, and cheapest way to set up a secure, reliable
commercial WiFi hotspot," said David Sidrane, Co-Founder of WifiTastic. "Instead of
providing advertising-supported WiFi access, we're letting any broadband users earn
money by securely sharing their high speed access. Whether it's with neighbors at
home or work, or offering Internet in their caf, bar, or hotel, WifiTastic, for the
first time, makes it practical for anyone to operate a WiFi hotspot."

Currently, the service is compatible with the Linksys WRT54G router. Users can
simply purchase a pre-configured router or update their existing Linksys router by
downloading and installing a free firmware update from WifiTastic.

As part of the beta promotion, the Linksys WRT54GL router is available directly from
WifiTastic for free*.
