ST. JOHN'S, Antigua--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 13, 2000

MYSPORTSBOOK.COM, the Internet's most highly acclaimed online sports wagering site, is pleased to launch their wireless capability and become the first online sportsbook to accept bets via wireless devices.

Until today, the only form of home-based gaming entertainment available was through personal computers with an Internet connection. With MySportsbook.com, players are now able to wager on a variety of sports and events on Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and web-enabled mobile telephones, allowing them to stay connected to the latest sports action at all times. Players can sign up and experience this first-to-market technology by visiting www.mysportsbook.com or www.wapsb.com

In addition, MySportsbook.com will be giving out over 5000 web-enabled phones to its VIP customers. "Our customers requested this type of added functionality and convenience, so we responded and took the actions necessary to," says Albert Keene, President of K.N.O.T. International Gaming Inc., the parent company behind the site.

Iwapi Incorporated has been contracted to implement the wireless capability on the www.mysportsbook.com site. This new function will enable MySportsbook.com to reach customers at their convenience and takes the power of customized online marketing one step further.

MySportsbook.com is owned by K.N.O.T. International Gaming and is licensed and operated out of Antigua. The gaming software is powered by Starnet Communications International (OTCBB:SNMM).

Starnet is recognized as the leading provider of online gaming software and competes among the ranks of Chartwell Technologies (CDNX:CWT), Boss Media (Nasdaq:BOSS), Cryptologic (Nasdaq:CRYP), Elot (Nasdaq:ELOT), Virt Gaming (VGTI), and Ubet (Nasdaq:UBET).

The wireless industry in the U.S. is set to explode and quickly catch up to Europe and Asia where wireless web users already number 60 million and 100 million respectively: International Data Corp. predicts that there will be close to 1.3 billion web enabled cellular phones by 2004. Additionally, considering the number of mobile phone users today, Motorola projects that by 2004 more people will be accessing the Internet from a wireless device than a wired one.
