LONDON, February 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

Online Infrastructure Readied for Gizmondo(TM) Unique Services Ahead of Global Launches

Gizmondo Europe Ltd, subsidiary of Jacksonville, Florida-based Tiger

Telematics Inc (OTC: TGTL ; OTC: TGTL.PK), today confirmed signing with Rackspace Managed Hosting Europe for the hosting of the official website [www.Gizmondo.com], which in turn will manage many of the end user personalized services and applications for the Gizmondo handheld

multi-entertainment device.

The two-year deal, facilitated by Netlight IT consultants, will initially cover the rollout in Europe, and will be scaleable to account for usage patterns and spikes - since the website will be more than a simple entertainment and information portal for the revolutionary handheld. Aside

from featuring movie and music downloads, the site will also host the My Giz services for updating personal profiles relating to the SmartAdds(TM), mapping for location-based services, and also the tracking and Geofencing functions unique to the gaming device.

Erik Ringertz, NetLight, says: ``Over the last 8 months NetLight has been searching for the best possible hosting partner for Gizmondo`s launch. The multimedia entertainment delivered via the handheld is likely to put very high demands on the hosting. We found Rackspace has the capacity to satisfy the user expectations and Gizmondo`s high bandwidth requirements, as well as providing excellent uptime.``

Steve Carroll, CTO, Gizmondo Europe, said: ``The website will work in partnership with the Gizmondo handheld to deliver truly amazing gaming, entertainment, and GPS services. From an infrastructure point of view, Rackspace`s reliability, security and service commitment fit our requirements perfectly.`` He added, ``Scalability is also a hugely important issue for us as we roll out across Europe and Rackspace offers a service that will fully support our changing business needs.``

Dominic Monkhouse, managing director Rackspace Managed Hosting Europe, comments: ``Rackspace is all about Fanatical Support(TM), our customer service promise. Everyone who works at Rackspace, from our technical support specialists to our account managers, is passionate about what they do and they`re always ready to go that extra mile. Our philosophy matches that of Gizmondo and we`re looking forward to supporting them in their launch.``

The Gizmondo is powered by Microsoft Windows CE advanced real-time operating system, boasting a 2.8-inch TFT colour screen with a Samsung ARM9 400Mhz processor and incorporates the GoForce 3D 4500 NVIDIA graphics

accelerator. It provides cutting-edge gaming, multimedia messaging, an MP3 music player, Mpeg4 movie playing capability, a digital camera and a GPRS network link to allow wide-area network gaming. Additionally, it contains a

GPS chip for location-based services, is equipped with Bluetooth for use in multi-player gaming and accepts SD/MMC card accessories.

The Gizmondo device and its games are currently launching in the U.K. and in North American and Continental Europe markets during the spring of 2005.
