MOTONEXT at CeBIT: Seamless Connectivity to Unleash Personal Potential Via Technology

HANOVER, Germany, March 18 -- CeBIT -- Motorola Inc. is showcasing the latest Intelligence Everywhere(TM) solutions that inspire new possibilities in a seamlessly connected world, keeping consumers informed, connected and entertained in their home, vehicle, at work and on the go. Motorola's new Wi-Fi(TM), 3G, Bluetooth(TM) and Push- to-Talk over TETRA and Cellular (PoC) solutions work together to create what were previously unimaginable consumer experiences which make people's lives smarter, simpler and more synchronized.

Motorola is putting entertainment in your pocket with the new model E398, E680 and C650 mobile phones. Inspired by consumers' passion for music and entertainment, and designed to maximize Motorola's tie up with MTV, the funky new phones bring a world of music, video, gaming and photos to you on the move. Delivering the ultimate in sensory experience through advanced sound and lighting technology, these cool new handsets boast built in MP3 players, video playback, high quality color displays, removable and expandable memory and the ability to download the latest games.

Motorola takes the world of seamless connectivity on the road with its demonstration of the "connected car of the future". For the first time, auto makers will see how communications technology is integrated throughout the car so that sections of the car can talk to each other and to the outside world intelligently. In this demonstration, Motorola will also show how Bluetooth and Wi-Fi technology can link the car and home invisibly to provide new simple and easy experiences to consumers.

For instance, once the car has been docked, (rather than parked) Motorola's new range of broadband wireless home networking products extend the interconnectivity from the home into the car. Motorola's wireless cable modem gateways, routers and other wireless products enable the consumer to share their broadband connection throughout the home, swap music, information and images with the car, their wireless phone or any other compatible wireless device or application.

Motorola supports this seamless world with its leading infrastructure technology. At the show, Motorola will demonstrate PoC as well as high speed 3G technology.

Epitomizing the intelligence everywhere that this connected world enables, Motorola and T Systems will demonstrate how they can provide emergency service workers with data and images wherever they are. Mugshots, medical data and fingerprint files can be sent to Motorola's new GPS enabled TETRA terminal, the MTH800, instantly giving police, fire and ambulance workers the information they need to do their job as effectively as possible.

Mike Zafirovski, Motorola's President and Chief Operating Officer said "At CeBIT this year, Motorola is demonstrating how our products can enable people to unleash their personal potential in a seamlessly connected world. Today's generation expect to be able to access the information they want, when they want it, and Motorola is making that possible."
