           iPoint-media moderated user generated content platform to
                 revolutionize live participation TV broadcasts



iPoint-media (LSE:IPNT), a provider of 3G/IP interactive video application
platforms, announces the release of goliveTV, an innovative solution for
incorporating user generated content (UGC) in live participation TV broadcasts.
goliveTV is expected to revolutionize the use of user generated content,
enabling broadcasters and media companies to develop a new generation of
interactive TV show formats.

goliveTV is an advanced converged broadcast media solution, supporting the
complete lifecycle of user generated content, from content collection via MMS,
SMS, Email and live 3G and PC video calling, to content management and
moderation, through to publishing across multiple media channels, including the
WEB, mobile, and TV (live participation). goliveTV can receive user generated
content from any broadband device (PC, 3G mobile, Video phone, and regular
mobile phone), classify and tag the content items, screen live callers, and send
live callers and stored content on air.

From a business perspective, goliveTV can increase revenues, ratings and
branding opportunities beyond current SMS voting approaches to participation TV.
Its innovative approach to participation TV allows the creation of new and
highly attractive TV show formats as well as the development of viewer
communities. Through its support of multiple business models, including the use
of mobile devices for content generation and consumption, charge per access, ad
sponsored content and others, broadcasters can enhance low margin SMS
participation with high volume video calling for both content submission and
viewing.

Joseph Daniel, iPoint-media VP Sales & Marketing, commented:
"Viewer interactivity and user generated content are essential for broadcasters
as they compete for viewer attention and retention. goliveTV is the first
converged media solution enabling TV broadcasters to effectively utilize all
forms of live and recorded user generated content in order to create new and
innovative TV show formats."

With the growing convergence of web, mobile and TV, broadcasters increasingly
face new technological challenges connecting multiple types of media.
iPoint-media combines its best of breed solution with a flexible business
proposition, offering goliveTV as a managed service, allowing broadcasters to
focus on their core business, rather than technology, while reducing their total
cost of ownership.

Muki Geller, iPoint-media CEO, commented:

"iPoint-media's goliveTV represents the leading technology for delivering
innovative converged media solutions. We have made a strategic decision to focus
our sales and development efforts on delivering the leading end-to-end media
solution for this fast growing and potentially huge market."

As a sign of things to come, the BBC News' highly rated "have your say" viewer
call-in show implemented iPoint-media's participation TV solution at the end of
2006, becoming the first user generated content news program. Since then, the
solution has been implemented by several other broadcasters and is offered
through several Tier 1 solution providers, including Ericsson, Siemens and IBM's
media division.
