Calypso Wireless Files for OTCBB Listing --
Expanded Business Model to be Announced in January 2004
Thursday December 11, 5:45 am ET
MIAMI LAKES, Fla., Dec. 11, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Calypso Wireless, Inc. (Other OTC:CLYW.PK - News), announced today it has filed an application to become listed on the OTC Bulletin Board. The company also announced it started generating sales revenues in the third quarter of 2003.
The OTC Bulletin Board(r) (OTCBB) is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information on over-the-counter (OTC) equity securities. OTCBB securities include national, regional, and foreign equity issues, warrants, units, American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), and Direct Participation Programs (DPPs). Securities quoted on the OTCBB are required to report their current financial information to the SEC to meet eligibility requirements. Calypso Wireless became fully reporting by filing its Form 10K with the SEC on July 2nd, 2003.
``Our ultimate goal is to become listed on Nasdaq. Our most recent quarterly report indicates that our total assets now exceed $11.4 million. We have also recently reached a major milestone in our operations -- revenues. At this point, we have every reason to believe that 2004 will represent a major breakthrough for Calypso Wireless. We are in negotiations with major network carriers and have signed several agreements to conduct additional field trials, which should result in procurement orders,'' says David Davila, president and chief executive officer of Calypso Wireless, Inc.
Furthermore, Calypso Wireless intends to announce its expanded and revised business model in January. The new model should substantially decrease the company's needs for capital while simultaneously boosting its revenues and profitability.
Last month, Calypso Wireless announced that it is in negotiations with one of the largest cable companies in the U.S. to license and purchase Calypso's ASNAP(tm) technology and related products to the cable company. Calypso Wireless has proprietary technology that seamlessly switches back and forth between cellular (GSM/GPRS or CDMA) networks and Wi-Fi wireless local area networks (WLAN) utilizing the 802.11 standard without losing connectivity. This makes Calypso's technology a natural fit for cable companies such as Time-Warner (NYSE:TWX - News), Comcast (NasdaqNM:CMCSA - News) and Charter Communications (NasdaqNM:CHTR - News).
About Calypso Wireless, Inc.
Calypso Wireless is the company behind the world's only mobile real-time video cellular phone capable of seamlessly switching back and forth between the cellular networks and the new Wi-Fi networks. Calypso's sleek new C1250i cellular video phone is the first and only mobile phone capable of using Wi-Fi to connect users to the Internet at blazing broadband speeds of 11,000 Kbps per second (11Mbps), enabling movie-quality, real-time video conferencing. This speed is up to 200 times faster than connection speeds currently available from some U.S. wireless carriers. Calypso Wireless is a publicly traded company. Its common stock trades under the ticker symbol CLYW.
Calypso Wireless Inc. is headquartered in Miami Lakes, FL. For more information about Calypso Wireless and its products and services, please visit the company's Web site at http://www.calypsowireless.com.

CLYW - this is a pinksheet,...with incredible potential.
CALYPSO WIRELESS DUE DILIGENCE PAGE
I: OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY:
I: For these investors have little patience to go through the whole DD page,
this recent article from newswireless.net gives you a brief overview about CLYW
and its technology from a 3rd party point of view:
http://www.newswireless.net/articles/031129-calypso.html
II: The following overview info came from the company's website at:
http://www.calypsowireless.com/
Calypso Wireless brings tremendous value to its customers. It is the company
behind the world’s only mobile phone capable of seamlessly switching back and
forth between the cellular networks and Wi-Fi networks. Calypsos€™s sleek new
C1250i video phone is the first and only mobile phone capable of using Wi-Fi to
connect users to the Internet at blazing broadband speeds of 11 MB per second
(11,000 KBps), enabling movie-quality, real-time video conferencing. This speed
is up to 200 times faster than connection speeds currently available from some
U.S. wireless carriers.
This means that cellular providers now have the ability to sell brand new
value-added usage-based services at a price premium. They can target whole new
market segments, such as demanding business users frustrated with current slow
wireless Internet speeds, and the new generation which can now send real-time
video via their cell phones instead of having to settle for boring still images.
In addition to creating a premium service, cellular service providers benefit
from lower infrastructure costs. Unlike traditional digital networks, Wi-Fi
network does not require huge infrastructure investments, since hot-spots –
points where users can connect to the Internet without wires – is exploding.
Many companies are creating them to attract tech savvy consumers to their
facilities. For example, Starbucks already has 2,000 hot spots and McDonalds
should have 300 by the end of the year.
China Telecom has already ordered US $500 million in Calypso video phones and
products for the Chinese market and other major service providers are lining up
to test the phones for their customers. Calypso is also in negotiations with
several other carriers for additional contracts.
The combination of a mobile phone that allows customers to connect to the
Internet at blazing broadband speeds, video conference with theater quality
clarity, send and receive e-mail, pictures and video, anywhere, anytime; the
ability to improve quality and reduce the number of dropped calls; increase
their coverage areas; and open up a vast new revenue producing area, all without
incurring huge costs, really appeals to cellular service providers.
Calypso Wireless€™s value proposition, strategy and technology have already put
it 2 to 5 years ahead of the competition and with its continued dedication to
details, should help it retain its lead for the foreseeable future.
Strategy
Calypso Wireless€™s strategy is to grow very rapidly by producing the world€™s
premier line of cutting edge wireless telecommunications hardware that will be
in high demand throughout the world. The company is well on its way to
fulfilling this mission with the successful launch of its new C1250i video
phone.
Calypso sells its products to large mobile carriers and cellular operators that
in turn create retail demand for these products. This strategy all but
eliminates the need for a large marketing budget, since the cellular operators
themselves are the ones that advertise our products to their customers. In order
to sell value-added usage-based services at a price premium, carriers not only
market our products to their customers, they also subsidize them.
China Telecom, one of the largest telecommunications companies in one of the
largest and fastest growing mobile phone markets in the world, has already
signed a US $500 million dollar contract to purchase Calypso's video phones and
products. We anticipate announcing further sales contracts in the near future.
Our cell phones are an idea solution for cellular service providers. We give
them the ability to offer something nobody else can – the ability to deliver
high-speed Internet access to mobile handsets at speeds that are up to 200 times
faster than connection speeds available from some U.S. wireless carriers, as
well as allowing cell phone users to do real-time video conferencing.
Another added benefit is the fact that Wi-Fi network doesn't€™t necessarily
require large infrastructure investments on the carrier€™s part. Wi-Fi relies on
hot spots that are often funded by third parties. In the U.S., companies like
Starbucks and McDonald’s have already installed hot spots in many of their
locations to lure technology savvy consumers to their restaurants.
In other words, wireless carriers will be able to better quality service with
fewer dropped calls through a more far reaching service area, all while freeing
up tower capacity. They can increase the number of customers they can serve and
add more revenue without the massive infrastructure costs associated with
building new cellular towers.
By both saving cellular service providers money, and opening up new and
lucrative revenue streams for them, Calypso Wireless is positioning itself to be
a highly sought-after provider of cellular and wireless hardware and phones.
And, because Calypso doesn't€™t need to spend a lot marketing of its products to
end users, it can concentrate its resources on its manufacturing operations,
while making sure that its R&D stays ahead of the rest of the industry.
BUSINESS MODEL
From recent PR:
Calypso Wireless Files for OTCBB Listing -- Expanded Business
Model to be Announced in January 2004
http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/031211/49595.html
It is expected the company is going to announce the licensing approach used by
QCOM's CDMA or RMBS's RDRAM. The company could license their patent-pending
technology to major cellular phone manufacturers.
III: All previous PRs issued by the company:
http://www.calypsowireless.com/press_releases.htm
IV. A Brief History of the company:
Calypso Wireless went public through a reverse merger in October 2002. Its
common stock trades on the OTC list under the ticker symbol CLYW. The company was
a private company from 1983 to 2002. CLYW merged with another public company traded
on pinksheet. The recent PR indicated the company was intended to be listed on NASDAQ
ultimately, and the first step is to be listed on OTC BB, the company has filed 10Qs and
other forms to be listed on OTC BB:
http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/031211/49595.html
``Our ultimate goal is to become listed on Nasdaq. Our most recent quarterly
report indicates that our total assets now exceed $11.4 million. We have also
recently reached a major milestone in our operations -- revenues. At this point,
we have every reason to believe that 2004 will represent a major breakthrough
for Calypso Wireless. We are in negotiations with major network carriers and
have signed several agreements to conduct additional field trials, which should
result in procurement orders,'' says David Davila, president and chief executive
officer of Calypso Wireless, Inc.
During the reverse merger in Oct 2002, the stock did a 20-1 reverse split to
wipe out previous shareholders of the shell company (this is an extremely common
practice for reverse mergers) and issued 100 million shares in total.
About 95% of the shares are owned by venture capital firms or institutions. Comparing
to many other OTC BB or pinksheet companies, these companies are mostly owned by
retail investors. And the company is incorporated in Delaware, it is not another Nevada
public company.

V: Shares Outstanding:
104,825,242 shares issued and outstanding September 30, 2003
100,135,242 shares issued and outstanding at December 31 2002
As you can see there is no significant increase in OS for the year, only 4 million shares
increased due to private placements or stock options. Unlike other pinksheet or OTC BB companies,
this company is NOT diluting shares to raise capital or make a living by selling shares.
VI. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Total assets at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, were $11,609,580 and
$10,406,110, respectively. Total liabilities at June 30, 2003 were $2,396,135
compared to $2,866,695 at December 31, 2002. At June 30, 2003, consolidated
working capital was a negative $1,404,232 as compared to negative working
capital of $2,243,713 at December 31, 2002.
VII: MAJOR EVENTS:
China Telecom Wi-Fi Deal For Calypso Wireless
December 3, 2003
Calypso Wireless has signed a $500 million, 3-year agreement with China Telecom
to supply them with technology to allow mobile phone users to switch to a VoIP
link and back again, via Wi-Fi.
http://www.chinatechnews.com/index.php?action=show&type=news&id=423
Also learnt from several other published news sources, China Telecom is
making blanket WIFI coverage in all major cities in China by the end of this
year.
SINA reporter then had a conversation with the director of Strategic Development
of China Telecom about WIFI phone business. The director didn't deny the
possibility that China Telecom may get into WIFI phone business soon. The
director said China Telecom had never given up WIFI business. He said China
Telecom is planning to put WIFI hotspots at many airports, hotels, and coffee
shops. By the end of the year, China Telecom expects to have WIFI coverage in
all major Chinese cities. The goal of this year is to build 1800-2000 WIFI
connectors (connect to hotspots). He also said WIFI will be used as a broadband
supplement, they will be bundled with ADSL.

Calypso Wireless has signed a $500 million, 3-year agreement with China Telecom
to supply the latter with technology to allow mobile phone users to switch to a
VoIP link and back again, via Wi-Fi. Calypso will provide a complete
infrastructure solution. Calypso is also offering a deal in which domestic users
will have a rebate on their broadband bills if phone users use their open WLAN
for calls. The Calypso/China Telecom deal will see shipments begin in
early-2004, possibly in March 2004. The initial production shipments of Wi-Fi
access points, phones and the Media Gateway Controllers linking them will begin
in Q1 or Q2-2004. Calypso is also having talks with a top cable firm in the US
for the latter to use this technology. Calypso has successfully demonstrated
ASNAP technology on the GSM/GPRS network of T-Mobile in Miami, switching from
Wi-Fi to GSM and back again. Field trials will begin in four or more European
cities in January 2004.

XV: Rumors and facts
it is rumored he contract negotiation with the U.S cable company as mentioned in the PRs is Charter Communications.
Also the company sent over 200 testing phones to some major telecom or cable companies to do field trials.
http://www.newswireless.net/articles/031129-calypso.html
"Around 200 prototype phones will be completed in the next few weeks, and shipped to trialists: two UK phone operators in January, along with other trialists in Italy, Germany, America and Asia. The only name which Sujo would release at this stage was that of AT&T Wireless. However, the company has announced that it is doing trials with Enitel - a mobile carrier partially owned and operated by Swedtel, which is in turn owned by a holding company jointly owned by TeliaSonera and Industri Kapital."

CALYPSO WIRELESS DUE DILIGENCE PAGE
I: OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY:
I: For these investors have little patience to go through the whole DD page,
this recent article from newswireless.net gives you a brief overview about CLYW
and its technology from a 3rd party point of view:
http://www.newswireless.net/articles/031129-calypso.html
II: The following overview info came from the company's website at:
http://www.calypsowireless.com/
Calypso Wireless brings tremendous value to its customers. It is the company
behind the world’s only mobile phone capable of seamlessly switching back and
forth between the cellular networks and Wi-Fi networks. Calypsos€™s sleek new
C1250i video phone is the first and only mobile phone capable of using Wi-Fi to
connect users to the Internet at blazing broadband speeds of 11 MB per second
(11,000 KBps), enabling movie-quality, real-time video conferencing. This speed
is up to 200 times faster than connection speeds currently available from some
U.S. wireless carriers.
This means that cellular providers now have the ability to sell brand new
value-added usage-based services at a price premium. They can target whole new
market segments, such as demanding business users frustrated with current slow
wireless Internet speeds, and the new generation which can now send real-time
video via their cell phones instead of having to settle for boring still images.
In addition to creating a premium service, cellular service providers benefit
from lower infrastructure costs. Unlike traditional digital networks, Wi-Fi
network does not require huge infrastructure investments, since hot-spots –
points where users can connect to the Internet without wires – is exploding.
Many companies are creating them to attract tech savvy consumers to their
facilities. For example, Starbucks already has 2,000 hot spots and McDonalds
should have 300 by the end of the year.
China Telecom has already ordered US $500 million in Calypso video phones and
products for the Chinese market and other major service providers are lining up
to test the phones for their customers. Calypso is also in negotiations with
several other carriers for additional contracts.
The combination of a mobile phone that allows customers to connect to the
Internet at blazing broadband speeds, video conference with theater quality
clarity, send and receive e-mail, pictures and video, anywhere, anytime; the
ability to improve quality and reduce the number of dropped calls; increase
their coverage areas; and open up a vast new revenue producing area, all without
incurring huge costs, really appeals to cellular service providers.
Calypso Wireless€™s value proposition, strategy and technology have already put
it 2 to 5 years ahead of the competition and with its continued dedication to
details, should help it retain its lead for the foreseeable future.
Strategy
Calypso Wireless€™s strategy is to grow very rapidly by producing the world€™s
premier line of cutting edge wireless telecommunications hardware that will be
in high demand throughout the world. The company is well on its way to
fulfilling this mission with the successful launch of its new C1250i video
phone.
Calypso sells its products to large mobile carriers and cellular operators that
in turn create retail demand for these products. This strategy all but
eliminates the need for a large marketing budget, since the cellular operators
themselves are the ones that advertise our products to their customers. In order
to sell value-added usage-based services at a price premium, carriers not only
market our products to their customers, they also subsidize them.
China Telecom, one of the largest telecommunications companies in one of the
largest and fastest growing mobile phone markets in the world, has already
signed a US $500 million dollar contract to purchase Calypso's video phones and
products. We anticipate announcing further sales contracts in the near future.
Our cell phones are an idea solution for cellular service providers. We give
them the ability to offer something nobody else can – the ability to deliver
high-speed Internet access to mobile handsets at speeds that are up to 200 times
faster than connection speeds available from some U.S. wireless carriers, as
well as allowing cell phone users to do real-time video conferencing.
Another added benefit is the fact that Wi-Fi network doesn't€™t necessarily
require large infrastructure investments on the carrier€™s part. Wi-Fi relies on
hot spots that are often funded by third parties. In the U.S., companies like
Starbucks and McDonald’s have already installed hot spots in many of their
locations to lure technology savvy consumers to their restaurants.
In other words, wireless carriers will be able to better quality service with
fewer dropped calls through a more far reaching service area, all while freeing
up tower capacity. They can increase the number of customers they can serve and
add more revenue without the massive infrastructure costs associated with
building new cellular towers.
By both saving cellular service providers money, and opening up new and
lucrative revenue streams for them, Calypso Wireless is positioning itself to be
a highly sought-after provider of cellular and wireless hardware and phones.
And, because Calypso doesn't€™t need to spend a lot marketing of its products to
end users, it can concentrate its resources on its manufacturing operations,
while making sure that its R&D stays ahead of the rest of the industry.
BUSINESS MODEL
From recent PR:
Calypso Wireless Files for OTCBB Listing -- Expanded Business
Model to be Announced in January 2004
http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/031211/49595.html
It is expected the company is going to announce the licensing approach used by
QCOM's CDMA or RMBS's RDRAM. The company could license their patent-pending
technology to major cellular phone manufacturers.
III: All previous PRs issued by the company:
http://www.calypsowireless.com/press_releases.htm
IV. A Brief History of the company:
Calypso Wireless went public through a reverse merger in October 2002. Its
common stock trades on the OTC list under the ticker symbol CLYW. The company was
a private company from 1983 to 2002. CLYW merged with another public company traded
on pinksheet. The recent PR indicated the company was intended to be listed on NASDAQ
ultimately, and the first step is to be listed on OTC BB, the company has filed 10Qs and
other forms to be listed on OTC BB:
http://biz.yahoo.com/pz/031211/49595.html
``Our ultimate goal is to become listed on Nasdaq. Our most recent quarterly
report indicates that our total assets now exceed $11.4 million. We have also
recently reached a major milestone in our operations -- revenues. At this point,
we have every reason to believe that 2004 will represent a major breakthrough
for Calypso Wireless. We are in negotiations with major network carriers and
have signed several agreements to conduct additional field trials, which should
result in procurement orders,'' says David Davila, president and chief executive
officer of Calypso Wireless, Inc.
During the reverse merger in Oct 2002, the stock did a 20-1 reverse split to
wipe out previous shareholders of the shell company (this is an extremely common
practice for reverse mergers) and issued 100 million shares in total.
About 95% of the shares are owned by venture capital firms or institutions. Comparing
to many other OTC BB or pinksheet companies, these companies are mostly owned by
retail investors. And the company is incorporated in Delaware, it is not another Nevada
public company.

As you can see there is no significant increase in OS for the year, only 4 million shares
increased due to private placements or stock options. Unlike other pinksheet or OTC BB companies,
this company is NOT diluting shares to raise capital or make a living by selling shares.
VI. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Total assets at June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, were $11,609,580 and
$10,406,110, respectively. Total liabilities at June 30, 2003 were $2,396,135
compared to $2,866,695 at December 31, 2002. At June 30, 2003, consolidated
working capital was a negative $1,404,232 as compared to negative working
capital of $2,243,713 at December 31, 2002.
VII: MAJOR EVENTS:
China Telecom Wi-Fi Deal For Calypso Wireless
December 3, 2003
Calypso Wireless has signed a $500 million, 3-year agreement with China Telecom
to supply them with technology to allow mobile phone users to switch to a VoIP

Also learnt from several other published news sources, China Telecom is
making blanket WIFI coverage in all major cities in China by the end of this
year.
SINA reporter then had a conversation with the director of Strategic Development
of China Telecom about WIFI phone business. The director didn't deny the
possibility that China Telecom may get into WIFI phone business soon. The
director said China Telecom had never given up WIFI business. He said China
Telecom is planning to put WIFI hotspots at many airports, hotels, and coffee
shops. By the end of the year, China Telecom expects to have WIFI coverage in
all major Chinese cities. The goal of this year is to build 1800-2000 WIFI
connectors (connect to hotspots). He also said WIFI will be used as a broadband
supplement, they will be bundled with ADSL.

XV: Rumors and facts
it is rumored he contract negotiation with the U.S cable company as mentioned in the PRs is Charter Communications.
Also the company sent over 200 testing phones to some major telecom or cable companies to do field trials.
http://www.newswireless.net/articles/031129-calypso.html
"Around 200 prototype phones will be completed in the next few weeks, and shipped to trialists: two UK phone operators in January, along with other trialists in Italy, Germany, America and Asia. The only name which Sujo would release at this stage was that of AT&T Wireless. However, the company has announced that it is doing trials with Enitel - a mobile carrier partially owned and operated by Swedtel, which is in turn owned by a holding company jointly owned by TeliaSonera and Industri Kapital."
