World’s Largest Open Mobile Advertising Network AdMob Notches Major Milestone—250 Million Mobile Page Views Served per Month

Advertisers with any size budget are seeing results worldwide, with average click-through rates of 3% to 4%

(MENLO PARK, CA) – August 31st, 2006. AdMob, Inc., the world’s leading mobile advertising marketplace, today announced that its network now serves 250 million mobile page views per month, and is quickly growing. This is a major milestone for both advertisers and mobile publishers, as the achievement demonstrates that the model that worked so well for the desktop Web is finally gaining traction on mobile devices.  

“Since we launched the AdMob marketplace eight months ago, the growth has been fantastic. With this kind of volume, and with global coverage, mobile advertising is clearly open for business.” said CEO and Founder Omar Hamoui.

The AdMob Marketplace offers advertisers access to the world’s largest network of mobile Web inventory, a powerful set of targeting tools, and real-time metrics and reporting. AdMob allows advertisers to run ads across a comprehensive set of mobile content channels, including communities, entertainment, news, and portals. With the recent addition of the contextual search channel, AdMob also allows advertisers to build campaigns that include mobile Web searches through Google’s mobile AdWords service.

Quick facts about AdMob and the AdMob Marketplace

1.     In less than eight months, the network has gone from 0 to 250M page views per month. With an average network growth rate of 150% per month, AdMob is the world’s largest and fastest growing mobile advertising company in terms of reach.

2.     AdMob’s marketplace allows advertisers to buy mobile ads on a variety of sites and likewise allows mobile publishers to sell advertising on their mobile sites. The typical AdMob mobile advertising campaign can be set up within minutes, allowing for almost instant results for both content owners and advertisers. By visiting http://www.AdMob.com, you can see live mobile advertising requests appearing in real-time, on the homepage, a tremendous validation of the system.

3.     Advertisers with budgets as small as $10 have used the network to generate results, with click-through rates of at least 5X those of traditional Web advertising.

4.     Hundreds of advertisers, ranging from small startups to top 10 global brands are currently using the network.

5.     The network is serving ads worldwide, with large amounts of traffic in the United States, Europe, Asia, and Africa. For example, a U.S. brand can now run an advertising campaign in select international markets without going through the complicated process of working with a variety of region-specific carriers.

“Prior to AdMob, the only real business models in mobile were based upon subscription, hampering the adoption of a number of services which may have grown explosively if monetized via advertising.  AdMob was founded with the goal of revolutionizing mobile through advertising.  By enabling advertisers and publishers both small and large to use advertising as a viable business tool, we’re well on the way to achieving that goal.” states Hamoui.

TCS Mobile Creates Mobile Gaming Expo- EA Mobile, Oasys Mobile, Sony Pictures Mobile and LG on board for the ''Games Gone Mobile'' Tour presented by Cingular Wireless

"Games Gone Mobile" Tour

WESTPORT, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 4, 2006--US mobile marketing firm TCS Mobile announced the launch of the "Games Gone Mobile" Tour presented by Cingular Wireless, a ground-breaking expo dedicated solely to the world-wide mobile gaming phenomenon. The ten-city, interactive tour begins on August 11th in Chicago, IL and culminates on October 15th in Los Angeles, CA.

The high-energy, youth-focused events will showcase the latest and most popular mobile gaming titles from EA Mobile, Oasys Mobile and Sony Pictures Mobile - including "Tetris(R) Mania," "Doom RPG," "Scrabble Blast," "UNO(R) Challenge," "Rock'em Sock'em Robots(TM)," "Texas Hold'em by Phil Hellmuth," "Wheel of Fortune(R)," "Snoop Dogg Boxing(TM)," and "Ratchet & Clank."

"Games Gone Mobile was created as a platform to show off the rich multimedia gaming experience available today on the mobile phone," said Stephen O'Shea, President and founder of TCS Mobile. "The fact is that most consumers aren't aware that mobile games even exist - and those that do usually equate the experience with low-tech single-player titles. This is the single biggest marketing challenge faced by mobile game developers today - and with the Games Gone Mobile tour, we're out to meet this challenge head-on - and show consumers just how far mobile gaming has come - and how easy it is to download and play."

On-site Attractions and Tour Details

The tour will be making stops in the Chicago, Boston, New York City, Washington DC, Atlanta, Miami, Dallas, Las Vegas, San Francisco, and Los Angeles markets - activating for three full event days per market.

Consumers will be encouraged to play games that have been preloaded onto LG handsets - all within a cool, 20' X 20' interactive space. GGM "Game Jockeys" will be on-hand to provide one-on-one game tutorials, purchasing instructions and LG handset giveaways - while an on-site DJ will ensure energy levels remain high. Mobile game trailers and additional on-site information will be displayed on video monitors interspersed throughout the area.

While the tour primarily focuses on the youth target, older visitors will not be left out in the cold. Teens will be encouraged to drop off their parents at a specially designated "Parents Zone," which will come fully-equipped with rocking chairs and mobile game demos designed to appeal to those less familiar with the technology.

Additionally, players who download a mobile game to their phone will be automatically entered into a sweepstakes for a chance to win $500 or an LG phone.

The tour is being supported by in mall posters, food court table tents and a radio advertising campaign, with each weekend's event capped by a live radio remote hosted by local DJ's.

NeoMedia’s Sponge Chosen for Coca-Cola’s New Sales Staff Incentive Program by BD-NTWK

FORT MYERS, FLA., and LONDON, August 2, 2006 -- Keeping your staff motivated is one of the biggest challenges faced by many companies. So when Coca-Cola decided to test a new staff sales incentive program, it turned to agency BD-NTWK supported by Sponge, a NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. (OTC BB: NEOM) company, who together had already shown such success with their fountain sales World Cup trade promotion.

The project that BD-NTWK created, called “Kickback,” is an internal sales promotion for Coca-Cola staff aimed at driving sales for particular products and getting sales teams used to seeing their mobile phone as a multi-layered form of communication.

“Sales Incentive Text to Win” is a special tool created by Sponge to manage just this kind of incentive program.  Coca-Cola staff are encouraged to sell certain products during key sales periods and win points for each eligible sale. Every month Sponge will send a personalized message to each individual keeping them up to date with how many points they have earned, and letting them know how close they are to their targets.

Sarah Morgan of BD-NTWK comments:  “Keeping sales teams motivated while they spend so much time out on the road can be complex.  Kickback Sales Incentive tool will keep them in touch with their progress and keep the momentum of the program going.”

The trial began in July and will last nine months.

NeoMedia’s Sponge Subsidiary Provides Mobile Application for U.K.  Company ‘One’

FORT MYERS, FLA., AND LONDON, August 03, 2006 -- Mobile marketing specialist Sponge, a division of NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. (OTC BB: NEOM), is providing its “text to win” application for an international mobile promotion staged by One (brand) bottled water (www.onewater.org.uk) to bring clean water to Africa.

One Water is an example of “ethical” (cause-related) marketing that is gaining considerable momentum in the U.K. and elsewhere in the Western world. All the profits from sales of One Water – which is sold at leading U.K. retailers including Waitrose, Morrisons, Co-Op and Total – go to building unique roundabout PlayPumps overseas, which will improve people’s lives by providing free, clean water for drinking, cooking, and washing.

One supports the Roundabout charity (www.roundabout.co.za), which installs PlayPumps in African villages, replacing traditional hand pumps. PlayPumps work through the rotational movement created by children playing on them, much like a merry-go-round.  As the children play, the merry-go-round drives a pump to extract water, which is then channelled into large storage tanks. The PlayPumps are so efficient, that there is usually excess water available for irrigation purposes, which was not possible with hand pumps.

NeoMedia’s Sponge became involved when One Water approached the London-based leader in mobile marketing applications and content delivery for help with its summer promotion -- to win a trip to Africa, said Jessie Britton of Sponge.  “NeoMedia and Sponge were delighted to support this important cause by donating our expertise and giving One Water full access to our ‘Text to Win’ mobile interactivity, to help them build brand awareness and conduct their promotion,” she said.

The grand prize in the promotion is a trip to Africa, where the winner will help build and install a roundabout PlayPump.  The August through October promotion is featured on 1 million-plus bottles of One Water, a national outdoor advertising campaign, an online campaign, and e-mail.

One Water founder Duncan Goose credits Sponge with “providing the finishing touch we needed for this promotion.  We approached Sponge because of the company’s fantastic reputation in handling high traffic promotions, and we were delighted when they not only agreed to work with us, but also donated some very valuable marketing support.”

Martin Copus, COO of NeoMedia and president of its mobile business unit, said, “It is exciting and worthwhile to see mobile technology being used to help improve people’s lives in this way. We salute the wonderful initiative of One Water and their partner Roundabout.”

Germany’s HandyGames™ Inks Deal with Greystripe’s AdWRAP Mobile In-Game Adverting Network to Distribute 28 Award-Winning Titles Games Free of Charge to Consumer

AdWRAP Service Adds 28 Titles in Biggest Deal to Date

(SAN FRANCISCO, CA/GIEBELSTADT, GERMANY) — Mobile In-Game Advertising Network Greystripe has partnered with the leading independent German mobile game publisher to distribute 28 award-winning titles. The alliance with HandyGames™ will bring more free mobile games to consumers worldwide and produce new ad-generated revenue for the developer.

Greystripe’s revolutionary take on mobile content has been featured in The Wall Street Journal and on the BBC World News, as it begs the simple question, “if radio and television can be free to the consumer with advertising, why shouldn’t mobile games be free, too?”

The games will be supported using Greystripe’s AdWRAP for Publishers (AFP), an automated online service that connects Greystripe’s advertising network to any mobile gamehas been quickly attracting interest since its launch in May 2006. Game developers seeking an ad-based new revenue streams and advertisers keen to tap into the new mobile medium have been quick to sign up. AdWRAP is designed to be a turnkey advertising network, blending the best of mobile marketing, viral promotion and advergaming. Using patent-pending technology, it provides advertisers with unique targeting, while at the same time subsidizing free games for consumers with non-intrusive, opt-in advertising.

“HandyGames sees ourthis ad-supported model as the way to make mobile games profitable, and we think the AdWRAP network will increase consumer access and excitement about playing mobile games,” said Greystripe CEO Michael Chang. “People who are still new to playing games on their phones will be more willing to experiment with free games rather than risk disappointment with a $3 to $12 download.”

It took HandyGames minutes to link its games to the AdWRAP system, and now mobile consumers have free access to HandyGames’ high-quality puzzle games, classic shoot ’em up style games, sports, casino games and more. The titles include: Jan Michaelis Snowboarding, Flowboarding, Penalty, Bowling, Amy’s Adventure, Pirates Ahoy, Apache Warrior, Adventure Boy in Zooloo Land, Bomber Pilot, 1941: Frozen Front, 1942: Deadly Desert, Spellboys, Townsmen, Townsmen 2, Townsmen 3, Townsmen Racing, Space Guerillas, Ancient Ruins 1, Ancient Ruins 2, Ancient Ruins 3, Ancient Ruins 4, Aces Of 1916, 1805: French Empire, Beershooter, Slot Machine, Slot Racing, AA Flak 8.8 and Atlantis 2097. Consumers can find more information about the games at the HandyGames Web site (www.handy-games.com <http://www.handy-games.com/> ).

“We’re excited to introduce a collection of our most popular mobile games to a wider audience and give consumers free access to mobile entertainment,” said Christopher Kassulke, CEO of HandyGames. “Greystripe has found a revolutionary way for the mobile gaming industry to move to a new level and help game publishers open up new revenue streams.”

Similar to Internet gaming and content sites, the HandyGames portfolio will be “wrapped” with advertisements. Advertisers view the approach as a powerful way to reach target demographics that spend more time gaming than they do with traditional ad media, and who may play mobile games as long as 20 minutes. Among AdWRAP network advertisers are Zagat Survey, Modtones (www.modtones.com <http://www.modtones.com/> ) and GPShopper, which were among the first to join the network at its launch during the E3 gaming industry trade show.

AdWRAP is built for scalability, as the overall in-game advertising market is predicted to grow more than ten-fold in the next five years. AdWRAP in-game advertisements provide significant value over current mobile marketing methods, with full-screen ads, video formats and the ability to target consumers who are more likely to respond to promotions in their free time. According to M:Metrics, in 2005 there were approximately 55 million mobile game players in the U.S. alone. Mobile advertising revenues are predicted to grow to $732 million by 2010, up from $56 million in 2005, according to the Yankee Group.

Portugal’s Largest Cinema Chain Adopts NeoMedia’s Mobile Ticketing for Theatres

Lusomundo Uses Mobile Tickets from Gavitec and TopSolutions to Speed Entrance

FORT MYERS, FLA., USA, and AACHEN, GERMANY, July 24, 2006 – Gavitec AG - mobile digit, a leading provider of mobile technologies and marketing solutions and a NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. (OTC BB: NEOM) company, has collaborated with Portuguese partner and solution provider TopSolutions to equip Lusomundo, Portugal’s leading cinema chain, with admission terminals for mobile tickets.

Lusomundo is the first cinema operator in Portugal to successfully offer “no line” mobile ticketing with NeoMedia’s global ticketing solution.  In addition to purchasing tickets at the box office, movie-goers can obtain tickets through a cash-free Web-based transaction, or from special call centers, and receive an electronic ticket as an SMS on their mobile phones.  Tickets, displayed graphically on the phone, are is read by Gavitec scanners at the entrance to the cinema, letting patrons in without having to wait at the box office.

The new service is directed at customers of Lusomundo and TMN, Portugal’s largest mobile telecommunications provider.  Tickets are received in an SMS, and give ticket holders exact information on theatre location, name and starting time of the film, and the numbers of the reserved seats.  A two-dimensional barcode (data matrix) on the mobile phone provides information for the admission terminal and ensures that the ticket can only be redeemed by its holder.  To gain access, ticket holders simply place the display of their cell phone against the reading lens of the EXIO scanner from Gavitec.  Without any special effort, the system compares the electronic ticket with the Lusomundo database, where it is verified by GPRS in seconds.

Say Good-bye to Old-Fashioned Box Office Lines

“Buying tickets in the old-fashioned way at the cinema box office, and the lines associated with doing so, will soon become completely unnecessary,” said Martin Copus, head of NeoMedia Mobile and COO of the parent company.  “Today, Portugal is in the forefront, as working with Gavitec and TopSolutions has made it incredibly convenient for more than nine million visitors to Lusomundo cinemas annually.”

Mr. Copus noted that, “Even The New York Times (see “Online Movie Tickets a Still-Evolving Force,” July 10, 2006) has written about the power of the Internet for ticketing, stating that ‘the Web has helped make concert ticket lines all but obsolete’.” he said.  “With NeoMedia’s new global movie ticketing solutions, we believe the same will be true for cinema lines in the very near future.

“Our ticket system gives the customers of Lusomundo a new level of convenience,” said Adriano Fonesca, a member of the executive board of Top Solutions. “Those who check the Internet for cinema information can now also reserve their tickets right then and have nothing else to worry about for their evening at the cinema. We are convinced that the system will soon be one of the habitual aspects of a visit to the cinema.”

Dr. Christian Steinborn, COO of Gavitec, explained further:  “Lusomundo is benefiting from the possibilities of mobile ticketing. A reduction in costs, user-friendly operation and administrative security combine to make mobile tickets a strong alternative to traditional admission tickets.”

Lusomundo is advertising its new offering through a comprehensive campaign in newspapers, magazines, radio and TV.  Cinema-goers are also being informed about the new ticket system on site through posters and additional cinema personnel.
