Wavecom Offers Five-Year Extended Warranty



    Wavecom (Paris:AVM) (NASDAQ:WVCM) (ISIN:FR0000073066) announced
    today the availability of an extended warranty period of five years on
    its Q24 and Q26 series of Wireless CPU(R)s -- significantly
    lengthening the current industry standard warranty period of one to
    two years.

    Pierre Teyssier, Wavecom Vice President of Operations commented,
    "We're so convinced of the superior quality of our Wireless CPU(R)s,
    having experienced extremely low failure rates in field, that Wavecom
    can now set a new industry benchmark of a five-year warranty." He
    added, "I believe that it will be a key advantage for Wavecom
    customers as they market their own products."

    This five-year warranty duration fulfills the demands of our
    customers. Most products in Automatic Meter Management, Vehicle and
    Asset Remote Management, Home and Security and telematics markets
    carry service contracts up to as long as five years.

    Wavecom is proud to demonstrate once again, through this extended
    warranty offer, its total commitment to customer satisfaction by
    enabling customers to design state-of-the-art competitive products or
    services based on Wavecom's Wireless CPU(R)s.

    This new Wavecom extended warranty offer is now available from
    Wavecom and its distributors.
