SafeCell Tests Low Cost In-flight Mobile Phone MMS

ASI Entertainment, Inc. (OTCBB:ASIQ) has been advised that ASiQ Ltd, the licensee for the aviation SafeCell system (patent pending), has announced that it has successfully tested the new MMS capability of the SafeCell system on the latest Thuraya network and the existing Inmarsat network.

The announcement stated, "Having recently launched a low cost cell phone solution for Bizjets using the Iridium satellites, ASiQ is now concentrating its efforts on the upcoming airline program. As part of the airline system, passengers will not only be able to send inexpensive SMS, IM and text email from their mobiles, but also photos. SafeCell MMS is a proprietary system that can deliver an in-flight MMS service from as little as 50 cents globally."

Ron Chapman ASiQ's CEO stated, "The only way to provide cost effective mobile phone communications is to stay outside the global mobile roaming system, thereby avoiding roaming charges, which are standard with the existing in-flight mobile phone solutions. Also, by focusing on data only we are able to substantially reduce the cost and weight of the hardware to less than 10% of competitive systems, making it affordable for all airlines. The first certifiable hardware is scheduled for delivery later this year."

About ASI and SafeCell

ASI owns the intellectual property of SafeCell. SafeCell is a new generation patent-pending software application that converts a normal mobile phone into a wireless communicator. SafeCell was developed to substantially reduce the cost of SMS, MMS, Chat, and Email for the regional and international airline traveler. SafeCell connects via Bluetooth, so it operates with any modern mobile phone, including the new generation mobile phones that already have wireless interface. SafeCell delivers its services via the internet and is designed for operation in-flight and on the ground.

SafeCell is uniquely positioned competitively and is currently being marketed to the airline industry via licensing and agency agreements. ASI's business model is based on receiving license fees and royalties from the SafeCell technology.
