eWAN Completes Integration of Proprietary International IP-Based 'TV Guide' Feature for April 19th Launch of Global IPtv Service

SANTA ANA, Calif., Mar 28, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- eWAN1, Inc. (PINK SHEETS: EWAN), announced today it has completed the engineering, testing and integration of its proprietary international IP-based TV Guide, or "IPtv Guide," into the Company's new Global Internet Television service offering, which is set to launch and begin IP broadcasting in near High Definition quality to subscribers on April 19th at the "IPTV & Beyond" Expo in San Diego, California.
eWAN's "IPtv Guide" will be accessible anywhere on the planet in 36 languages, enabling subscribers to access program listings from their local market and time zone (local TV programming) in addition to 75 channels of traditional broadcast television that eWAN will initially offer with the new service. eWAN's "IPtv Guide" will seem familiar to subscribers because it closely resembles the interface of Gemstar-TV Guide International's (NASDAQ: GMST) domestic TV Guide(R) product that is widely used on major U.S. cable systems. "IPtv Guide," however, will offer users additional functionality and interactivity above and beyond that of Gemstar's product, including interactivity with eWAN's time-shifted feature set, "EVO," which is similar to the offering by TiVo (NASDAQ: TIVO) and, because eWAN's Global IPtv Service will offer a level of personalization never before seen, also enable local and traveling users the functionality and convenience of being able to tune in to programming of their personal preference wherever they are in the world, at any time.

Scott Kettle, eWAN's President, noted, "When we begin Internet broadcasting from the 'IPTV & Beyond' Exposition on April 19th, we will demonstrate not only near HD quality reception of our programming in several international locations, but our ability to service multi-language consumers all over the world, in any market and time zone. The additional functionality of our 'IPtv Guide' represents the final piece in the completion of our "Triple Play" Wireless Digital Set-top box and Global IPtv Service combo, and is sure to impress all exhibitors and visitors to the show."

About eWAN1, Inc.

eWAN's wireless "Triple Play" Digital Media Center connects directly to a television to enable viewing of broadcast and cable television (IPtv), enables video-on-demand of movies and documentaries, features traditional Internet access, telephone service (VOIP) and data and video capability including video conferencing. The boxes' new IPtv cache will also feature music channels that will play music and the corresponding video if it is available, as well as provide "time shifted" services such as the ability to record one program while watching another, similar to the offering of TiVo(R). The set-top box is pre-bundled with a monthly subscription to eWAN's new Global Internet Television service, which is scheduled to launch on April 19th, and will enable subscribers to access their local TV stations, plus eWAN's initial 75 channels of "A la Carte" traditional broadcast television and content delivered in 36 major languages, anywhere on the planet. eWAN believes it is the first company with the ability to deliver Internet TV with the clarity of high definition to its subscriber's TV sets. eWAN's wholly-owned subsidiary, Direct Connect, will provide traditional broadcast television, including such popular programming as HBO, CNN (subsidiaries of Time Warner (NYSE: TWX)), Showtime, (a subsidiary of Viacom International (NYSE: VIA) (NYSE: VIA.B)), ABC and ESPN, allowing subscribers to pick and choose only those channels they are willing to pay for.
