EGIL Completes Required Payments for Exclusive Vertical Market Rights
March 12 2007 - 10:27AM
Business Wire
Edgetech International, Inc. (OTC:EGIL) is pleased to confirm that
the Company�s payment obligations have been fulfilled with regard
to the exclusive licensing rights, virtually worldwide, for several
major vertical markets for The Edge, a unique, handheld, stand
alone wireless unit with a built-in modem and full-screen display
functioning at DSL-type speed. All payments in the sum of $400,000
have been made on time and in their entirety, solidifying EGIL�s
ability to capitalize in the highly lucrative vertical markets of
(i) fantasy sports and sports book; (ii) online poker; (iii) music,
movies and television; and (iv) financial services markets. EGIL
continues to receive shipments of Edge units from the manufacturer
from our initial 5,000 unit order. As we build our subscriber base,
Edgetech intends to take full advantage of these vertical markets
by offering these value-added services for the utilization of The
Edge as a massive content distribution vehicle. Content
distribution is used for specific high-traffic events such as live
Web broadcasts by continually dispersing content from the
originating server to other servers via satellite links. In this
manner, content delivery is more selective and dynamic than the
simple copying or �mirror site� of a Web site to one or several
geographically dispersed servers. EGIL is eagerly anticipating the
upcoming arrival of an upgraded edition of The Edge loaded with
special features. The enhanced version includes a back-lit
keyboard, razor like keyboard, USB port, a sleek new design, a
thinner design, and an exterior window for a clock. �Completing out
required payment objectives for vertical market exclusivity is a
significant milestone for our Company, our shareholders, and the
future growth for a product operating at a high quality level,�
commented Edgetech CEO, Lev Parnas. �Our vertical market
capabilities open many doors for the Company�s revenue generating
capabilities while enhancing the overall experience of using The
Edge for our subscribers.� About the Company: We are an authorized
distributor of �The Edge.� �The Edge� is a robust, handheld
wireless internet access device which delivers the internet at DSL
like speed, displaying full content HTML, web pages, graphics and
java script. �The Edge� offers a full desktop web experience,
together with a larger functional keyboard than competitive
products. Our distribution rights to such product are subject to a
long-term marketing, sales and distribution agreement between a
Company subsidiary and the licensor of such product, pursuant to
which we have been granted such rights in several exclusive
vertical markets, virtually worldwide, including: (i) fantasy
sports and sports book; (ii) online poker; (iii) music, movies and
television; and (iv) financial services markets. Ongoing
exclusivity for such markets is, generally, subject to the payment
to the licensor of certain fees, including delineated monthly
service fees per subscriber, and, meeting delineated minimal annual
subscriber thresholds. The Company's executive office facility is
located at 233 S. Federal Hwy., Suite 106, Boca Raton, Florida
33432. Its telephone number is 866-439-EDGE (3343) and its website
address is www.edgetechpc.com. The Company also maintains a West
Coast operations office facility at 9701 Wilshire Boulevard, 10th
floor, Beverly Hills, California 90212. Its telephone number is
310-860-6150. Except for historical information, the matters
discussed in this press release are "forward looking statements"
within the meaning of and which are made pursuant to the safe
harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. Such forward looking statements are subject to risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to be materially
different from historical results or from any results expressed or
implied by such forward looking statements. Any forward looking
statements speak only as of the date on which such statement is
made, are not guarantees of future performance, and involve certain
risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from
what is expressed or forecast in such forward looking statements,
whether as result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Factors that could cause such results to differ materially from the
results discussed in such forward looking statements include,
without limitation: uncertain continued ability to meet our
operational needs in view of ongoing working capital constraints;
need for substantial additional capital to fully implement our plan
of operations; no assurances of and uncertainty of profitability;
no assurances of the Company's ability to effect sufficient product
sales so as to maintain exclusivity in certain vertical markets,
the result of which could materially adversely effect the Company's
results of operations; need for additional management, sales and
marketing personnel, which is contingent upon our receipt of
additional capital; competition from companies having substantially
great financial, marketing and other resources than the Company,
including name and brand recognition; the impact of competitive
services and pricing; changing consumer tastes and trends; and the
legal, auditing and administrative cost of compliance associated
with the Sarbanes Oxley Act. Many of such risk factors are beyond
the Company's control. New factors emerge from time to time and it
is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor
can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business of the
Company or the extent to which any factor, or combination of
factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those
contained in any forward looking statements. In light of these
risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the results
anticipated in these forward looking statements will in fact occur.
The Company undertakes no obligation to update any such forward
looking statements.
