Viscount's New MESH V5 a Hit at International Security Exhibition Jan 10, 2006 9:00:00 AM BURNABY, BC -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 01/10/06 -- Viscount (OTC BB: VSYS) premiered its new MESH V5 facility protection system at The International Security, Safety and Fire Exhibition held at Pragati Maidan, New Delhi, from December 9-12, 2005. Bob Hudson, Viscount's International Sales Director, coordinated the MESH exhibit with Mr. Rajesh Solanki, of Viscount's Indian Distributor, Infocom India, to demonstrate the future of security convergence and to provide a setting to discuss potential contracts in pre-arranged meetings with Indian officials.
Mr. Hudson commented, "Our appearance was necessary for officials to understand our commitment to India given the size of potential projects and certain departments. Their military is the world's third largest. Infocom continues to book new construction contracts for MESH and the first installs have been very successful. The response from attendees was outstanding and additional traffic was generated by the recent story on Infocom and MESH in IndiaSafe Magazine."
The interest in MESH was punctuated by Mr. Hudson being interviewed by India's National Broadcaster Doordarshan, in a segment which aired the following day.
"India is extremely IT savvy and MESH V5 has no equal in performance, reliability, or cost," noted Viscount President and CEO Steven Pineau. "With a groundwork of successful smaller installs of MESH and many additional bookings, India has a real willingness to adopt the coming digital security device revolution and for departments anticipating large security deployments the logic of avoiding investing in obsolete Controller based security systems."
"Multi-nationals have invested billions in acquiring controller manufacturers and market share. MESH V5 puts us in a position so powerful that our primary challenge for 2006 is in taking full advantage of our market leadership by educating the market that MESH V5 functions are even possible. To see how competitors are dealing with the MESH threat, please visit our website to enter our online contest to be posted around noon called 'The Five Stages of Controller Grief.'"
