SUNNYVALE, Calif., & DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 8, 2002-- General Magic,
Inc. (Nasdaq:GMGC), a pioneer in enterprise voice infrastructure software, and
InterVoice-Brite, Inc. (Nasdaq:INTV), a leading global provider of
speech-enabled automation solutions, today announced the completion of an OEM
partnership agreement covering product integration and joint marketing
initiatives.

Under this agreement, iVB Enterprise Solutions Division will market General
Magic's private-labeled version of its magicTalk(R) Enterprise Platform to
provide automated voice solutions within J2EE environments. By bundling General
Magic's platform with InterVoice-Brite's OneVoice(R) VoiceXML Media Gateway,
enterprise customers will experience improved interoperability and optimization
for voice-enabling Web applications.

In turn, InterVoice-Brite will deliver a private-labeled version of its
OneVoice VoiceXML Media Gateway to General Magic, enabling the company to offer
enhanced telephony/CTI connectivity features to the broader voice application
customer service industry.

"With a growing demand to voice-enable the enterprise, this partnership not
only underscores the ubiquity of voice as a reliable and natural user interface
but also marks the movement of traditional IVR technology from call centers into
enterprises' Web infrastructures," said Mark Plakias, The Kelsey Group. "The
relationship represents an excellent opportunity for both companies to develop
additional indirect sales channels for their products while moving their
respective product offerings forward."
