Jasper Wireless and Wavecom Collaborate to Deliver Innovative Business Models for Global M2M



    Regulatory News:

    Jasper Wireless and Wavecom (Paris:AVM) (NASDAQ:WVCM)
    (ISIN:FR0000073066) today announced the initial step in building a
    global partnership for the first all-in-one wireless machine to
    machine (M2M) infrastructure.

    By combining new Wavecom StarService with the Jasper Wireless
    global service platform, customers get everything they need to connect
    and manage their machines wirelessly from day one. This connectivity
    service will be possible using the new Wavecom Wireless
    Microprocessor(R) 50 with inSIMTM (embedded SIM), the secure Wavecom
    Intelligent Device Services, and immediate access to the Jasper
    Wireless service platform for connecting and managing machines around
    the world.

    "As machine makers scale their businesses using wireless
    technologies, having their equipment connected out-of-the-box from day
    one is critical. Jasper Wireless is delighted to work with Wavecom to
    be the first M2M mobile operator to enable inSIM(TM)," said Jahangir
    Mohammed, CEO, Jasper Wireless. "Together we will lead the industry in
    changing the economics of M2M services."

    "Wavecom and Jasper Wireless are changing the business model for
    enterprise by removing the upfront investment that has been a key
    barrier to mass adoption of wireless M2M," said Ron Black, CEO,
    Wavecom. "Jasper Wireless is unique in its ability to deliver a single
    global service and we are delighted to partner with them by combining
    our companies' great technologies with innovative business models to
    deliver exceptional value to industrial M2M and automotive customers."

    Jasper Wireless operates a service platform, previously
    unavailable in the M2M market, to connect and manage machines around
    the world. The service includes three key components. First is the
    Jasper Wireless M2M Global SIM, providing local service in over 35
    countries and growing every month. Second is the web-based Jasper
    Wireless Control Center, offering one dashboard for all machines, with
    complete visibility and control of communications. The third component
    is a group of vertical application solutions built and optimized to
    meet the unique needs of specific industries including fleet and asset
    management, vehicle telematics, security and remote product service.

    Wavecom StarService includes the new Wavecom Wireless
    Microprocessor(R) 50 with inSIMTM (embedded SIM) free of charge with a
    subscription to the secure Wavecom Intelligent Device Services web
    portal. Wavecom inSIMTM is an industrial-grade implementation of
    traditional SIM cards, built to endure the harsh environments common
    to M2M applications.

    Commercial availability of StarService is early 2008. Find out
