Leader in Mobile Rich-Media Delivery Grows Platform of SilverStripe Solution
TEL-AVIV, Israel – March 12, 2008
Bamboo MediaCasting, Inc., the leading provider of scheduled, push-delivery of subscription content to mobile customers, today announced the extension of its SilverStripe solution to support Smartphones running on the Microsoft Mobile operating system. This addition allows the mobile content delivery company to fully support the HTC P series and S series,
the Motorola Q series and many more.

Bamboo MediaCasting's SilverStripe is a white-label solution that allows carriers or service providers to provide a channel-based subscription service to their users. Users can enjoy rich video and audio content such as television programs, movie trailers, professional or user-generated video clips, music, news and other long or short digital content. Optimized for simple handset viewing, the solution leverages a unique “Push-Store-Play™” mobile technology for dynamic content delivery to mobile phones with no user intervention, completely in the background.

"With our addition of the Microsoft Mobile platform to our constantly-growing solution, Bamboo MediaCasting has increased its offering for carriers and service providers to include many more phone as well as PDA devices,” explained Meir Fuchs, VP, Research and Development of Bamboo MediaCasting, Inc.

The SilverStripe service, already deployed by a Tier-one mobile operator in Europe, utilizes existing mobile networks and facilitates off-peak delivery to minimize network congestion, data costs, and disruption to traditional phone usage. The service provides episodic viewing of rich-media content including news, video podcasts and music for users. The channel-based subscription model allows subscribers to select the content they desire, and then enjoy the full-track media on their mobile phones without browsing or network connection. Users are notified when new material arrives and has been stored. With one click the rich-media can be played anytime, anywhere.

“Bamboo MediaCasting is aggressively building up our solution to keep up with the growing variety and complexity of today's mobile devices," stated Guy Morag, CEO of Bamboo MediaCasting, Inc. "Expanding our offering to include Microsoft Mobile is in line with our efforts to make our solution comprehensive for our customers, their users and the varied mobile devices they use. Additional platforms will be announced in the coming weeks to further expand the solution for our customers.”
