WiFiMobile addresses the Wi-Fi starved US smartphone market

Industry = Telecommunications

Press Release Summary = Wi-Fi smartphones now readily available for US consumers

Press Release Body = Las Vegas, Nevada July 3rd 2007

Leading mobile VoIP provider WiFiMobile today announced that they are selling
smartphones with built in Wi-Fi directly to US consumers and businesses.

The US online store at www.wifimobile.com supplies a variety of unlocked Wi-Fi
supported cellular devices. These enable end users to take advantage of Internet
Telephony (mobile VoIP), Email, and Internet browsing when in range of a Wi-Fi
access point such as in the home, office or a public hotspot. All of these result in
massive cost savings over using a data plan. The devices have a built in media
player and Wi-Fi facilitates being able to play music from the phone over a home
network.

Enterprises also have the option of using the smartphones as extensions to their
corporate IP PBX system. The cellular device then acts as both a standard GSM
handset and as an extension to the company switchboard.

While these particular smartphones have been incredibly successful in the European
market, they have not been available in the US due to the US carrier's reluctance in
taking them on board. Draining battery life has been an argument for some but users
have the option to switch Wi-Fi off when not required.

All smartphones available at the online store are very competitively priced and same
day shipping is available. All devices are unlocked for use with any SIM card and
come with a full one year's manufacturer's warranty. As WiFiMobile specialize in
these particular devices, customers are promised top quality ongoing and technical
support.

WiFiMobile's CEO Gerry O'Prey says "The availability of Wi-Fi equipped smartphones
and the growing popularity of VoIP are breaking down the boundaries of cellular
telecoms and the Internet. The market in Europe has boomed in the last couple of
years and it's now time to give US consumers a choice. A Wi-Fi enabled device can
ultimately save the end user money, is that why US carriers are shying away?"
