Fantastic bringt Lösung für die unternehmensweite Datenreplikation auf den Markt

Fantastic RepliCast ermöglicht bequeme und kostengünstige Synchronisierung von Informationen
Zug, Schweiz - 25. Oktober, 2001 - Unternehmen, die Kosten für ihre Datenverteilungssysteme niedrig halten wollen, aber nicht auf eine zuverlässige Software für die Synchronisierung umfangreicher unternehmenskritischer Daten verzichten können, haben mit Fantastic RepliCast ab sofort eine neue Lösung zur Auswahl. Mit Fantastic RepliCast lassen sich große Datenmengen zuverlässig und schnell an verschiedene Standorte in einem globalen Netzwerk replizieren. Die Fantastic-Lösung ist damit eine kostengünstige Alternative zu herkömmlichen Systemen wie CD-ROMs, Festplatten oder Bänder. Fantastic RepliCast hat den weiteren Vorteil, dass die Datenverteilung und -kontrolle dem Versender obliegt. Die Software richtet sich vornehmlich an Unternehmen aus den Branchen Einzelhandel, Automobilwirtschaft und Finanzwirtschaft.

Mit Fantastic RepliCast lassen sich komplette Dateisysteme unter Microsoft Windows per Breitband-IP-Verbindung auf Rechner anderer Standorte kopieren. Die Software besteht aus drei Komponenten: Der RepliCast Manager ist die zentrale Benutzerschnittstelle der Lösung. Der RepliCast Host besteht aus einem oder mehreren Masterdateisystemen, dessen Inhalt eins zu eins auf den RepliCast Clients abgebildet wird. Ändern sich die Daten auf dem Hostrechner, sorgt dieser für die automatische Synchronisierung der Clients. Unterschiedliche Reproduktionsverfahren ermöglichen dabei die Berücksichtigung von Faktoren wie Bandbreite, Datenmenge oder Datenwichtigkeit.

The Fantastic Corporation (Zug, Schweiz) ist ein führender Anbieter von Software-Gesamtlösungen für die Breitbandübertragung von Multimediainhalten. Diese Kommunikationstechnologie verbindet digitales Punkt-zu-Multipunkt-Broadcasting mit der Interaktivität des Internets, um Multimedia-Inhalte über jegliche IP-fähige Breitbandnetze an PCs, digitale Settop-Boxen und Handheld-Geräte (einschließlich Mobiltelefonen der dritten Generation) zu verbreiten.

Durch die Zusammenführung der Bandbreiten- und Geschwindigkeitsvorteile der Broadcasting-Techniken mit der Interaktivität des Internet bietet Data Broadcasting überlegene Verteilungs- und Interaktionswege in einer zunehmend IP-zentrierten Welt.

WORLDZAP PROVIDES UNIQUE WIRELESS SPORTS SERVICE FOR FORMULA ONE SPONSOR

London, Thursday 4th October - Worldzap, the mobile media provider, last weekend completed a unique wireless sports service
for Compaq Computer Corporation, principal sponsor of the BMW.WilliamsF1 Team. The deal, encompassing 13 Grand Prix
events, demonstrated Worldzap`s ability to effectively merge new technology and sports content.

Compaq commissioned Worldzap to deliver a variety of applications built for the Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC, delivered as a
cohesive, entertaining service for their VIP guests at each Grand Prix. The service was designed to provide supplemental
Formula 1 entertainment and information to enhance the users` race weekend experience.

This advanced mobile service was the first of its kind to deliver engaging and personalised content focusing on the sponsorship
of a major sport property. Entertaining applications included a video welcome from the BMW.WilliamsF1 Team drivers Ralf
Schumacher and Juan Pablo Montoya, animated 3D laps around the circuits, and graphics of starting grids updated and
delivered to the device after each Saturday qualifying session. Race and hospitality information and photos were also
continually updated throughout each GP weekend.

The functionality of the service was unique in its combination of iPAQ-supported technologies, which included text, audio,
video and flash animation based elements. The iPAQ is also an unparalleled device for showcasing an event such as F1 due to
its capacity to receive updates via cradle synchronisation, or in a wireless environment through wireless LAN or Bluetooth
technology.

"Compaq is the computing power behind the BMW.WilliamsF1 Team," said Andrew Collis, worldwide Formula 1
Sponsorship Director, Compaq Computer Corporation. "By using the iPAQ with this specially created content for our
hospitality and press program, we let customers and media participate in the great experience of the Formula 1 world from the
day they arrived. Formula 1 is about passion and emotions, but also about accuracy and technology. The iPAQ project in
conjunction with Worldzap enabled us to merge these attributes."

Joe Dent, GlaxoSmithKline, a guest of Compaq at a recent Grand Prix said: "It is the standard hand-held computer in my
division and we think it is wonderful. I stayed up 1.5 hours last night playing with the F1 software. It had EVERYTHING
anyone would want to know about the races, schedules, and drivers. I am extremely happy to have it."


Worldzap`s Senior VP Rights and Content, Rich Lefler said: "Through our partnership with Compaq we were able to deliver
entertaining and technologically advanced content in an immediate and mobile way. This service is an ideal tool for corporate
communication and brand reinforcement, and demonstrates the immense potential that wireless media has for any league,
team, federation and their sponsors."

FANTASTIC ANNOUNCES ENHANCED NETWORK BROADCAST SOLUTION
Fantastic stellt verbesserte Broadcasting-Lösung vor

MediaACE VoD Enables Efficient Delivery of Live and On-Demand Video To End-User Desktops From a Central Location

Zug, Switzerland - November 2, 2001 - The Fantastic Corporation announced today the availability of the Fantastic MediaACE VoDTM, a multimedia IP broadcast solution that enables simultaneous, intelligent delivery of rich video and audio content to millions of end-user desktops (Video on demand). MediaACE VoD is an integral part of the Fantastic Corporate Solution™ which was recently launched at the International Broadcasting Conference in Amsterdam.

With MediaACE VoD Fantastic is specifically addressing the growing enterprise demand for streaming media solutions. In recent research by Multimedia Research Group Inc., corporate use of streaming is identified as one of the major drivers behind the US$ 5 billion streaming equipment and services market predicted for the year 2004. With MediaACE VoD, a highly scalable, multicast-based video solution is now available. The solution is capable of distributing broadcast-quality video content to thousands of locations efficiently and streaming it effectively to local users.

The MediaACE VoD offering builds on the growing relationship between Fantastic and partner, Streaming21 Inc. Streaming21`s carrier-class, broadcast quality, IP streaming technology supplements MediaACE VoD by enabling DVD quality video and CD quality audio with large scaling capabilities.

"Fantastic`s reliable multicast distribution and delivery system complements Streaming21`s highly scalable video and audio streaming solutions. MediaACE VoD gives corporations the power to distribute, manage and deliver broadcast quality, interactive media content to PCs, set-top boxes and handheld devices," said David Silver, CEO of Streaming21.

From a central point of control, corporations and service providers can conduct live video broadcasts, video-on-demand, training programs and more. They can also manage the distribution of this high-impact content to servers across the globe, greatly enhancing corporate communications both internally and externally.

MediaACE VoD enables more efficiency in multimedia communications efforts by actively managing the content in intermediate servers that are close to end-users in corporate networks. By filling these servers "on the network edge" with rich audio and video offerings, and enabling that content to be managed from a central location, MediaACE VoD helps overcome network bottlenecks and greatly enhances the end-user experience. The result is more compelling communications, delivered with less overall impact to system resources.
