eWAN1, Inc. EWAN) announced today that the
Company has been selected by strategic partner, Infotec Business
Systems, Inc., a leading global provider of video streaming media and
digital IP content, to provide all of the back-end technological
infrastructure, collocation and hosting for that company's portfolio
of web properties including that of its subsidiaries, Galaxy Networks
Inc., Stream Horizon Studios Ltd., and Ebahn Television Corp. Once
integration is complete, each site within Infotech's online portfolio
will be exclusively hosted by eWAN and bear the badge "Powered by eWAN
Networks." Managements' Initial calculations project this new
agreement will result in approximately $500,000 in ongoing annual
revenue to eWAN.
Prior to the completion of this agreement, eWAN had only been
hosting Infotech's "Eagle cam" property, located at
www.infotechbsi.com, a live outdoor site that is documenting the
courtship, egg laying and eventual hatch of a new clutch of eaglets on
Hornby Island, Canada. The "Eagle Cam" property currently receives
upwards of 2 million unique visitors daily, with an average of 4,500
simultaneous connections, or 35 viewers per minute.
Scott Kettle, eWAN's President, observed, "Our massive bandwidth
capacity and ability to push streaming IPtv content globally is making
eWAN an attractive bandwidth and a co-location provider option for
other Company's with digital IP content. Bandwidth and co-location
represents a high-margin, recurring revenue business that we feel will
be a valuable, high-growth business segment for eWAN in the future."
He continued, "We will provide ongoing bandwidth and co-location for
all of Infotech's sites going forward, just as we have been for its
widely popular "Eagle Cam" site. On Tuesday, March 28, we were
averaging 3Mbps for the day. The next day, when the Eagle cam was put
online, we went up to an average of 250Mbps for the day. Today, we are
using an average 800Mbps per day to sustain the 2M visitors and 4.5K
simultaneous visitors. We consider this but a glimpse of how quickly
we expect to grow."
eWAN is set to launch its Global Internet television service and
begin broadcasting on April 19, 2006 during the, "IPTV & Beyond" show
at the Marriott Del Mar, San Diego, CA, which eWAN is co-sponsoring.
In front of an audience of the world's leading telecommunications
companies, including Motorola (NYSE: MOT), Alcatel (NYSE: ALA), Bell
Canada, Siemens (NYSE: SI), and a host of others. eWAN will debut its
first-to-market IPtv network by demonstrating and deploying its
multiple channels of "On Demand" content delivered to subscriber's
televisions through DSL or any other broadband Internet connection.
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
(NASDAQ: TIVO). 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 able

allowing subscribers to pick and choose only those channels they are
willing to pay for.
