                             New Product Launched

CybIT has launched the GAP HiConnex telematics unit, a low cost pocket-sized
device that uses Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) technology to
enable the remote management of fixed assets.

The HiConnex device can be configured to send an SMS message to a mobile phone
or CybIT's 24/7 bureau services when a sensor is triggered by, for example,
low stock levels or power outages. The solution will enable more efficient and
cost-effective management and supervision of remote buildings and industrial
applications including vending and ticket machines, heating and
air-conditioning systems, water and waste disposal systems.

The GAP HiConnex device has eight input and four output channels to allow a
fixed asset to be configured to respond to a variety of events. CybIT will
provide support to analyse a customer's needs and programme the unit to their
exact requirements. CybIT's bureau services will also provide round-the-clock
support, allowing units to be monitored on a 24/7 basis.

Possible applications for the GAP HiConnex include:

- Remotely controlling stock and maintaining security of a vending machine
that sends an SMS message to the user or CybIT bureau if stock is low or the
power has been disconnected;

- Monitoring the status of an air conditioning system that alerts an engineer
if it breaks down;

- Combining GAP HiConnex with movement sensors on gaming machines to alert
managers if the machines are moved or to notify when the cash boxes needs
emptying; and

- Remotely monitoring and controlling temperature in industrial refrigeration
units.

"We believe that the market for remote fixed assets management solutions is
largely untapped, especially for those solutions that integrate within other
communications and telematics services." said John Wisdom, Director of Sales
and Marketing, CybIT.

"We already have a broad portfolio of solutions that provide companies with
advanced communications and management capabilities for their employees and
mobile assets. Now with the GAP HiConnex solution, we're extending our market
reach to provide this level of functionality to fixed assets. The number of
applications for the GAP HiConnex solution is almost limitless and as well as
being simple and easy to use, we can configure our solutions to match
customer's exact requirements."
