Campbell, CA and Taoyuan, Taiwan, R.O.C. – April 30, 2007

VisualOn, Inc. today announced a corporate agreement with High Tech Computer Corp. (TAIEX: 2498; “HTC”) the world's leading provider of Microsoft® Windows Mobile®-based smart devices. VisualOn will provide multimedia software to be integrated with HTC’s ARM based 3G, 2.5G, and 2G phones and Personal Navigation Devices (PND).

“We are very excited to be working with HTC. HTC is the leading developer of Smartphones in the world today. They have developed many successful platforms in the market. By working together with HTC’s innovative R&D team we have been able to take multimedia on handsets to the next level, ensuring a rich multimedia experience for consumers who use HTC devices.” said Yang Cai, CEO of VisualOn.

HTC devices with VisualOn’s multimedia software will be able to play back full screen video/audio content at up to 30 frames per second, a performance standard equal to devices with dedicated multimedia hardware components. Consumers can now enjoy watching full length movies or video on demand, and still have plenty of battery life to make phone calls or navigate themselves safely to their final destination. Consumers who have purchased HTC devices with VisualOn multimedia software will be able to enjoy audio and video quality on par with Apple’s Video iPod, including the ability to play back H.264 video with AAC+ audio content at 30 fps.

Working closely with HTC, we have proven it is possible to play very high quality audio and video on handheld devices with a software solution”, said Bill Lin, Vice President of Engineering at VisualOn. “We decided to work with HTC because they are the leading company in the Smartphone market. Working with HTC we have developed a high performance multimedia solution including, decoding, encoding, and streaming support.”
