Dear Reader,
For a company intent on becoming the premiere source of entertainment and information services inside a driving automobile, the inclusion of the world’s most popular online electronic music and entertainment store would seem to be both a necessity and an attraction to the ride of the future. In a vehicle complete with the Internet, text messaging, and entertainment of all varieties already, an announcement this morning by US Telematics, Inc. (OTCBB:UTLM) stating that it has added Apple iTunes compatibility is yet another dramatic enhancement to the company’s offerings and appeal.
The addition of Apple’s iTunes to US Telematics’ Voyager product line not only extends the product’s versatility, but also provides users with a more seamless experience as they move from their home to their automobile environment. The thought of being captive in a vehicle or detached from the office or entertainment is a thing of the past, displaced by the engaging and productive Voyager ride of the future.

USTelematics Announces Integration of Apple iTunes Music, Movie and TV Services into
Vehicle Entertainment Voyager IPTV Product Line
Proprietary Technology Integrates Apple iTunes with Live Mobile IPTV, Wi-Fi Internet Hotspot,
DVD, Movies and Computer Games for Passenger Entertainment
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--USTelematics, Inc. (OTCBB:UTLM), deploying proprietary technology and market-disruptive products at the forefront of the connected-car revolution, has announced it has enhanced its Voyager™ product line with the addition of Apple iTunes functionality and services, further strengthening Voyager’s feature package with the addition of the leading online music, movie, TV show and audio book download service.
USTelematics’ new Voyager product line, the first to offer live internet protocol TV (IPTV) for passenger automobiles, integrates an unparalleled suite of functions and features for the projected $58 billion mobile entertainment and data communications marketplace.
“The addition of Apple’s iTunes into the Voyager product line not only extends our product’s versatility, but also provides users with a more seamless experience as they move from their home to their automobile environment,” said Howard Leventhal, Chief Executive Officer of USTelematics. “We’re doing more than provide unique options for entertainment and information on the road, we’re leading the evolution of the connected car.”
USTelematics is commercializing an expanding line of products that target the telematics marketplace, including solutions that enable online internet access, email and other communications within passenger and commercial vehicles.
Voyager enables connection to the Web either by 3G EVDO or WiMax wireless modems, and provides hundreds of child-safe program channels into the rear seating areas of cars, SUVs, minivans and other family vehicles.
Intended for use by families in their vehicles on extended trips, Voyager not only delivers live streaming video, but also plays live and stored online games, such as Disney Online and Xbox Live. It also provides live and stored music, movies and TV shows, all filtered to minimize the risk of exposure to web-based adult content.
Voyager’s technology also addresses the business and personal productivity marketplace. In addition to its value for kids in the rear seat, certain models of Voyager envelop the entire vehicle in a Wi-Fi hotspot on wheels. This feature enables for example, a front seat passenger to establish a web connection from any Wi-Fi card-equipped laptop for full bi-directional internet access, including email and website connectivity.
Voyager is being offered in three high-resolution screen sizes with 7”, 10” and 12” flip-down VGA video monitors. All system electronics, including the monitor, are encased in a single housing. In contrast to bulky car-rooftop satellite receiving systems, Voyager’s removable external antenna is smaller than many car radio antennas.
In addition to its web-based functionality, Voyager also offers features that do not require an Internet connection. These include DVD movie play, audio CD play, MP3/iTunes audio play, and full compatibility with music, TV audio book and movie download services– for storage on a 40 GB hard drive and play at any time, even in absence of a live wireless Web connection.

About USTelematics, Inc. |
 |
OTCBB: UTLM
- USTelematics is delivering the dream of the “wired car” concept to market – today
- Voyager Automotive Mobile IPTV™ and Vivee™ products are capitalizing on the $58 billion global telematics market
- Proven technology validated by revenue-sharing contracts with Dish Network and Verizon Wireless
US Telematics, Inc. (“USTelematics” or the “Company”) is engaged in the development and commercialization of next-generation, proprietary technologies to revolutionize the “wired car,” delivering high speed data and entertainment content to private and commercial vehicles. The Company has developed innovative, patent-protected products that enable the conveyance of advanced voice-driven, hands-free text and email communications, entertainment and Internet data with broad additional commercial applications for safety and navigation.
The Company is addressing high-growth opportunities in the projected $58 billion global telematics marketplace with proprietary technologies that enable a full range of voice-driven handheld and automotive mobile communications, full internet connectivity and rich infotainment options. All of USTelematics’ products are designed to enhance the most important element of all: road safety.
Recognizing the sharp global increase in text messaging and mobile email, USTelematics has developed technologies and products that enable drivers to send and receive written messages - without taking their eyes off the road or their hands off the wheel. The Company’s proprietary Vivee.com online service and associated Vivee™ (Voice Interactive Voice Enhanced Email) client hardware and software products, "speaks" email and SMS messages through a human-like animated avatar character, unifies mobile messaging and provides safer communication while driving.
USTelematics is also commercializing technology and products that provide unparalleled functionality and entertainment options for families on the road. The Company’s Voyager™ product line is a series of mobile IPTV products for rear seat entertainment, gaming and fully-enabled Internet browsing. Where most pre-existing mobile devices offer "mobile Web" services that are quite disabled with respect to Web browsing, Voyager provides standard full-screen browsing experience including streaming video -- just as one encounters while using a laptop or desktop PC. This internet service enables non-driving adults and passengers to conduct work, correspondence or browse the web during otherwise unproductive road trips.
With products that provide a full range of next-generation rear seat infotainment, USTelematics is offering an advance over the old DVD-only systems that still represent the current standard in the rear seat entertainment industry. In addition to enabling access to live automotive mobile IPTV through top satellite TV providers, entertainment options include connection to Apple iTunes for music, movies, audio books, TV shows and other content and access to downloadable films via MovieLink.com, CinemaNow, Amazon Unbox and others.
“USTelematics is firmly committed to building shareholder value through the deployment of advanced technologies and products that capitalize on the ‘wired car’ revolution.”

USTelematics, Inc. Reports on Year-End Achievements and Issues Corporate Update
Company Nears Commercial Launch of Vivee and Voyager, In-Car Communication
and Entertainment Products
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--USTelematics, Inc. (OTC: UTLM.OB - News), reports its year-end results and other corporate achievements. The Company filed its first Annual Report as a public company on Form 10KSB with the SEC on September 12, 2007, for the period ending June 30, 2007.
"This has been a significant year for USTelematics," says USTelematics' Chief Executive Officer, Howard Leventhal. "After years of research and development, we are now at the cusp of commercially launching our first products, Vivee(TM) and Voyager(TM). In addition to the considerable work preparing to launch our lead products, we also fully executed upon our stated commitments for a Direct Public Offering, public registration, and trading of our Company's common stock."
Vivee "speaks" e-mail and Short Messaging Service (SMS) text messages through animated avatar characters, and provides drivers with safer communication. Vivee software is now available for pre-existing devices working with most Windows operating systems, including Windows Mobile and Pocket PC edition, through the Company's online store (www.ustelematics.com). Vivee is also pre-loaded on a selection of the new hardware being offered at ustelematics.com.
"Vivee2go(TM)" is a handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) device that speaks e-mail and text messages to the user and includes cutting edge 3D moving map navigation and voice synthesis. The device is made and warranted by Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ - News) and is the subject of the Vivee bundle launching in direct response advertising. Vivee2go also includes a mobile version of Microsoft Office software, digital movie playback, digital music play, digital photo viewing, and games. The Vivee2go bundle is offered at a one-time cost of $299.99 plus monthly service. "The most popular devices delivering only GPS capabilities are commonly sold for approximately the same $299 retail price, making Vivee2go an extraordinary consumer value versus GPS-only devices," says Leventhal.
Voyager, the Company's earliest-developed product line, provides automotive mobile digital Television and Internet programming for family-oriented rear-seat entertainment. The Company has entered into an agreement with a major direct broadcast satellite (DBS) content provider to enroll consumers in new and upgraded satellite TV subscriptions. The agreement also provides for commissions to be paid to USTelematics for acting as the source of new subscribers.
During the past year, the Company solidified agreements with a number of partners to enable the launch of its products including Verizon Wireless (partnership of Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ - News) and Vodaphone (NYSE: VOD - News)) and EchoStar/Dish Network (NASDAQGS: DISH - News). USTelematics also became a marketing affiliate of CinemaNow in an agreement that pays commissions to USTelematics for re-selling CinemaNow's downloaded digital movie content. Founded in 1999, CinemaNow counts EchoStar, Index Holdings, Menlo Ventures, Transcosmos, Microsoft, Lionsgate, Cisco Systems, and Blockbuster as investors. USTelematics additionally entered into agreements with TechData (NASDAQ: TECD - News) and Computer Discount Warehouse (NASDAQ: CDWC - News) to provide data center components, product components, and related services. Also over the last twelve months, the Company secured numerous manufacturing sources for its products, domestically and overseas in Asia.
Mr. Leventhal concludes, "We have successfully transitioned from R&D into a commercial-stage Company, and we are quite optimistic about the Vivee and Voyager product launches. We believe the Company's publicly-traded status will provide us with increased visibility in the marketplace, and we look forward to updating the investment community on our continued progress."
