CSI Wireless introduces two new GSM desktop cellular phones

New Brightstar-distributed phones offer industry-leading feature sets with recognized branding

CSI Wireless Inc. announced today the introduction of two new desktop cellular phones featuring GSM wireless technology. The phones are designed and manufactured by CSI Wireless, and will be distributed exclusively by Brightstar Corporation. The phones have been approved to be branded by a third party which is widely respected electronics company.
Both phones have already been approved for use by nine cellular carriers. 10 more carriers are in the advanced stages of testing and further approvals are expected soon. The GSM phones have also passed all product-quality testing for international distribution and third-party branding, and shipments have begun.

One product is an entry-level desktop cellular phone for consumers wanting superior-quality voice service at a very competitive price. The other product features the same superior-quality voice service, plus the added value and convenience of Internet, email and text-messaging capability.

Both phones feature:
- high-performance receivers to ensure maximum operational range vs.
competitive offerings
- user interfaces developed specifically for desktop cellular telephone
applications
- large back-lit displays
- three-digit PIN security to enable or block outgoing calls
- memory capacity for 250 phone numbers
- speed dial, auto redial, and one-touch emergency dialing
- 30 minutes of talk-time emergency back-up power
- attractive styling


"There has already been very strong market interest in both of these new GSM phones, due in part to the very successful carrier and branding testing," said Brightstar Vice President Jaime Narea. "The quality that CSI Wireless builds into all of its products is a major selling feature."

The two phones represent additional collaborations between Brightstar and CSI Wireless. In 2002, the two companies launched a phone featuring TDMA communications technology and a world-renowned brand that has become the top- selling desktop cellular phone in Latin America.

"Our very successful experience with our original TDMA desktop cellular phone indicates we should expect the same superior quality performance and enthusiastic market acceptance from our new GSM desktop cellular phones" said Stephen Verhoeff, CSI Wireless' President and CEO.
