EDP Weekly's IT Monitor, Feb 2, 2004

e-SIM Ltd. (OTCBB:ESIM.OB), a provider of MMI Solutions for wireless handsets, announced the official launch of its Integrated MMI Solution.

e-SIM provides a complete end-to-end integrated solution including all the components, tools and services needed to develop mobile devices with superior MMIs quickly, cost effectively and at low risk.

e-SIM's complete solution includes a set of full MMI Reference Design applications, a set of RapidPLUS-based MMI development tools, as well as high-level tools to customize the look and feel of the handset, and full professional services to ensure the successful launch of products. The solution is pre-integrated with third party applications, such as Motorola GSG's MMS client and Mobile Internet Browser, game engines, voice recognition, predictive text technologies and camera drivers. Some of these 3rd party components are supplied by e-SIM, while others are available directly from their suppliers.

The solution enables automatic regression tests to be performed on the MMI prototype, saving time and allowing problems and bugs to be discovered early and resolved easily.

The MMI Solution is based on a modular, scalable and portable architecture. It has been integrated with many leading wireless platforms, such as Texas Instruments and Motorola SPS. Its advanced architecture allows it to be easily ported to any new hardware and software environment.

e-SIM's MMI Solution enables creation of several handset models based on a single design, providing the infrastructure for easy product segmentation, scalability and expandability.

A set of development tools and high-level customization tools empowers manufacturers as well as carriers to easily customize and brand their handsets. Infrastructure is provided for elements such as graphics and animations, menus, text messages and screen layouts to be downloaded over the air and dynamically installed in the handset.

e-SIM's MMI technology has been incorporated in millions of phones in the market today and is used by companies such as NEC, Kyocera, BenQ, TCL, Texas Instruments, Motorola SPS and Ericsson Mobile Platforms.

e-SIM will showcase its MMI Solution at the 3GSM World Congress in February in Cannes, France. To schedule a demonstration of the solution, please write to info@e-sim.com.
