IBAX Places Multi-Million Dollar Order With Navini to Drive WiMAX in Italy;
March 27, 2006

Expansion of Personal Broadband to Address the Digital Divide in Italy
    RICHARDSON, Texas and BASIGLIO (MILAN), Italy, March 27
/Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- IBAX Group, Navini's long time
exclusive partner in Italy, has placed a substantial order
for Navini's Ripwave(TM) MX pre-mobile WiMAX solution. 
IBAX plans to launch and expand municipal and resort
networks as well as build out nation-wide solutions for the
Public Administration in Italy.

    "We are addressing the digital divide issues that
exist in Italy," said Mr. Ugo de Fusco, Founder and
CEO of IBAX. "WiMAX is the answer bringing broadband
and new mobile applications to vast areas of the country,
not previously possible with ADSL or ISDN. The benefits of
using pre-mobile WiMAX today include very easy plug and
play, portable operation and quick deployment in both
indoor and outdoor areas with no phone line required. 
Customers can also use wireless broadband to bring WIFI to
their home or office environment and enjoy the financial
advantages of Voice over IP (VoIP)."

    This initial order for Navini's Ripwave(TM) MX solution
includes 200 of the industry's first 802.16e dual-mode base
stations as well as customer premise equipment -- making it
the largest single MX order to date in Europe.

    "This is a significant commitment for Italy and
Navini Networks is delighted to be providing the world's
most popular portable broadband wireless network solution
to the European mass market," said Roger Dorf,
president and chief executive officer of Navini Networks.
"In addition to providing personal broadband to the
mass market and closing the digital divide, Navini's mobile
WiMAX solution is particularly well suited for vertical
business applications such as security, public safety or
even real estate." 

    "The Italian WiMAX market will consist of millions
of users (CPEs) and thousands of BTSs," said Ugo de
Fusco.  "We know that Navini's equipment delivers most
of the characteristics of mobile WiMAX today and Navini's
experience clearly demonstrates that they have mastered the
complexities of large deployments," added de Fusco. 
"The new Ripwave(TM) MX platform provides seamless
software upgrades to IEEE 802.16e." 

    Municipal deployments will continue over hundreds of
other municipalities with deep historical and artistic
roots that attract tourists and industry driving the need
for broadband, including resort cities such as Venice or
Siena.

    IBAX, funded by Mr. Ugo de Fusco and private capital,
has entered strategic alliances with major players to serve
the Italian Public Administration and major Ministries,
selected Navini Networks' smart beamforming technology
because of its robustness with unusual applications and
harsh environments. IBAX experience with Navini systems
covers the entire gamut of frequencies, from 2.3 to 3.6GHz,
supported by the same software.

    In the face of the lack of frequencies for telecom
operators in Italy, IBAX has demonstrated the viability of
private networks for municipalities that lack broadband
access in such fashionable resort areas like Bormio, in the
Italian Alps, which hosted the 2005 Winter Skiing events.
Last October's regulatory changes have liberalized the use
of free frequencies, creating business opportunities for
hundreds of small telecom start-ups.
