Business Wire, Jan 31, 2006
DALLAS, Texas -- Calling all pop culture fans! 20Q, the award-winning, all-knowing, mystical sphere that uses "Artificial Intelligence" to read your mind, is about to get even smarter. Radica(R) Games Limited (NASDAQ: RADA) and 20Q.net(TM) Inc. are creating new sports, movie and music themes for this hugely popular game and are asking the public to be part of the development.
"20Q continues to amaze players with its knowledge," said Pat Feely, Radica's CEO. "Consumers now have the unique opportunity to help expand 20Q's database and allow 20Q to amaze even more players."

Consumers can simply visit www.20q.net, think of a sport, movie or music-related person, place or thing and answer the questions 20q.net asks. 20Q can learn everything from where their favorite sports team plays, to the song that's been stuck in their head, to their favorite actor in this year's blockbuster film. Because 20Q's knowledge comes from "learning" answers, consumers will be developing the database and helping to make the new 20Q even smarter.
"Radica continues to create unique and compelling products with every evolution of 20Q," said Robin Burgener, inventor and CEO of 20Q.net. "We are now appealing to the public, the biggest experts in pop culture, to help shape the next generation of 20Q."
The new 20Q games, 20Q Themes, will feature new questions and more answers to read minds and astound sports fans, music lovers and movie enthusiasts. 20Q Themes will feature a built-in light to play day or night and a trans-reflective screen for easy viewing. It will be available this fall and retail for $14.99.
