Bytemobile Announces New Release of Unison Multi-Service Platform, Speeding Carriers' Time to Market for Mobile Data Services

May 22, 2007

    MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., May 22 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ --
Bytemobile, Inc., the global leader in multi-service
optimization solutions for mobile data networks, today
announced the general availability of its new Unison(TM)
Multi-Service Platform for network operators.  The latest
Unison release accelerates operators' time to market for
new data services by fully integrating multiple Internet
protocol (IP) services on a single node in the core data
path of the network.  

    "The Unison solution enables our customers to
provide a compelling Internet experience to any subscriber
on virtually any device," said Adrian Hall, Bytemobile
vice president of Marketing and Business Development. 
"This opens up new revenue opportunities for operators
and strengthens their position against both existing and
emerging competitors.  With the simple yet comprehensive
Unison platform in their network, they can quickly launch
new data services to increase average revenue per user
(ARPU) and build brand loyalty."

    The Unison open architecture obviates the traditional
need for operators to deploy disparate, incompatible point
products from multiple vendors in order to deliver
competitive data services to their subscribers.  All Unison
IP services are fully interoperable, enabling carriers to
unify network operations, improve network efficiency, and
simplify network management and planning.  The Unison
platform runs on highly scalable, industry-standard
hardware, and supports rapid integration of third-party IP
solutions for mobile data services.  From a single
centralized node, operators can deliver richer content on
smaller devices without requiring client downloads or other
device changes.

    The new release of the Unison Multi-Service Platform
includes powerful system management and subscriber data
storage functions, as well as centralized configuration and
support for third-party wireless application protocol (WAP)
gateways.  Embedded in the core data path, the platform
monitors all data traffic, inspecting packets once and
selectively applying IP services as needed.

    Unison IP services and their associated product updates
in the new Unison release include the following:

    -- Unison Web Fidelity(TM) Service for delivering open

       Internet access onaffordable feature phones.  
       Launched in February 2007, this service is the first

       carrier-grade, commercial infrastructure solution 
       for the adaptation of full-HTML content to mass-
       market mobile devices.  It supports Opera Software's

       popular Opera Mini(TM) browser, as well as mobile 
       browsers that are native to specific handsets.  
       Release 2.0 of the Web Fidelity Module, the product

       behind the service, is now generally available for 
       deployment worldwide in both clientless and client 
       versions.  

    -- Unison ACCESS Mobile(TM) Content Filtering Service 
       for providing parental controls on web access by 
       children under 18.  This service checks website 
       requests against a content categorization database 
       and authorizes or denies access to subscribers based

       on user profiles defined by operators.  An optional

       feature called dynamic rating supplements the 
       database checks with dynamic analysis and 
       categorization of newly discovered or unrated 
       websites.  Release 4.0 of the ACCESS Mobile Service

       is now available on the Linux open systems platform.
    

    -- Unison Optimization Services for improving network 
       capacity and performance, and reducing total cost
       of ownership.  These services constituted 
       Bytemobile's original service node in the networks 
       of more than 70 customers worldwide.  Release 4.0 
       of the Optimization Services Node (OSN) Monaco(TM) 
       Edition has been enhanced to increase the 
       performance of advanced web content and lower 
       operator costs through data reduction, protocol 
       acceleration and dynamic content caching.

    -- Unison WAP Gateway Service for optimizing mobile 
       access to operators' branded portal content on 
       WAP handsets.  This service is integrated with 
       Unison Optimization Services.  With Release 4.0 
       of the OSN Monaco Edition, it has been upgraded 
       with new data capture, personalization, content
