Orange and T-Mobile UK to Jointly Pilot New Mobile TV Broadcast Service in London using NextWave Wireless´ TDtv(TM) Solution

Orange and T-Mobile UK today announced they intend to jointly
pilot a new mobile TV and multimedia broadcast service in London using
NextWave Wireless´ (Nasdaq - WAVE) UMTS MBMS based TDtv solution. The
pilot, scheduled for the second half of 2008, will be targeted at
people living or working in West London and will demonstrate how the
cost of providing high-quality, mass market mobile TV and multimedia
broadcast services can be significantly reduced when mobile operators
share widely-available unpaired 3G spectrum and a standards-based TDtv
broadcast network. It will also showcase an innovative consortium
model that can be easily replicated by mobile operators in more than
50 other countries where unpaired 3G spectrum is available.

During the six-month pilot Orange and T-Mobile UK customers will
use TDtv-enabled WCDMA handsets to receive up to 24 high-resolution
television channels along with 10 digital radio stations at a far
lower delivery cost per channel than previously possible. By providing
more channels with higher picture quality that are fully integrated
with existing multimedia services, the pilot service is expected to
conclusively prove customer demand for mobile broadcast TV and radio
services. The channel lineup is expected to include many of the most
popular broadcast and premium television channels in the UK.

Mobile network operators in Europe and the Asia Pacific who also
own unpaired UMTS spectrum will be invited to participate in the pilot
as observers. In addition, leading handset manufacturers who can make
TDtv a standard feature in their devices will also be invited to
observe the pilot. During the pilot, the companies intend to show that
when mobile network operators, content providers and technology
companies work together with MBMS technology, mobile TV costs can be
significantly reduced.

Paul Jevons, Product and Innovation Director, Orange said: "Orange
was the first UK network operator to introduce a mobile TV service in
May 2005, and is continually looking for unique insights and
innovative content to ensure that Orange Mobile TV continues to grow
and develop in a way that offers the best available standard of
service for our customers. The results from the technical trial of
TDtv in Bristol last year were extremely encouraging, and this joint
pilot of the service in London is an excellent opportunity for us to
properly explore the great potential available to our customers from
the technology.

Orange Mobile TV already offers a broad range of content including
the major terrestrial channels BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5, as
well as Sky and most recently Setanta allowing Orange mobile TV
customers to see live coverage of every televised match from the
Barclays Premier League."

T-Mobile UK Technical Director, Emin Gurdenli, said, "We are
committed to widening the appeal of our Mobile TV offering, from the
point of view content and user experience. Last year, we revamped our
offering with the addition of three Sky Mobile TV packages and eight
BBC TV and radio channels to provide customers with more choice. On a
technical level, our involvement with this TDtv pilot is intended to
raise awareness of the potential of broadcast mobile TV and help
stimulate the development of an industry-wide ecosystem in which
operators, handset manufacturers and content providers collaborate to
realize a robust commercial proposition. TDtv uses part of the
licensed 3G spectrum which is unused at the moment and is a technology
that can scale to support high simultaneous usage levels without any
degradation in quality. This solution would be ideal for broadcasting
live, large sporting events such as the 2012 Olympic Games to high
population densities."

The pilot will be powered by an end-to-end mobile broadcast
solution developed by NextWave Wireless that will include TDtv network
infrastructure based on the 3GPP UMTS TDD MBMS standard. NextWave will
also provide a TDtv Device Integration Pack, a complete chipset and
software package that enables handset vendors to quickly add TDtv to
any multimedia enabled WCDMA handset. In addition, NextWave´s Packet
Video (PV) subsidiary will provide a complete Electronics Programming
Guide that will integrate the TDtv service with the operators´
existing 3G services. PacketVideo will also provide the pilot its new
MediaFusion(TM) platform, a white-label, client-server software
application that allows mobile operators to rapidly develop and launch
on-device portals for rich media services, including music-on-demand,
personalized streaming radio, live TV, and video-on-demand.

"We are rapidly moving into a new and exciting wireless era, the
era of mobile multimedia where your favourite movies, television
shows, and music will be accessible everywhere you go, in the palm of
your hand. It´s why we developed our innovative TDtv mobile broadcast
solution," said Allen Salmasi, CEO of NextWave Wireless. "We believe
today´s announcement of a joint TDtv initiative by two of the world´s
largest mobile network operators represents an important milestone in
the evolution of mobile multimedia and will clearly demonstrate the
compelling economics of marrying our innovative TDtv technology with
underutilized 3G spectrum to deliver high-quality mobile television
services to the mass market."

CTO of France Telecom, will deliver the opening presentation of the
Mobile TV track - "Mobile TV - Technology Debate: Delivering Mobile TV

12th, from 11:40 - 13:10 at the GSM/Mobile World Congress.

About TDtv

TDtv is a 3GPP MBMS solution that provides mobile operators an
opportunity to profitably deliver multiple, high-resolution TV
channels, digital audio, or other IP data-cast services to an
unlimited number of concurrent customers. In 2007, Vodafone,
Telefonica, Orange, 3UK, and IPWireless announced successful results
from a joint technical trial of TDtv in Bristol. The trial
demonstrated TDtv´s ability to reliably deliver a large number of
high-quality channels in 5 MHz of TDD spectrum with coverage
comparable to WCDMA, but with far fewer cell sites. The trial also
demonstrated the viability of dual-mode TDtv/WCDMA handsets as well as
the ability of the technology to support full mobility at vehicular
speeds. IPWireless was acquired by NextWave Wireless in May, 2007 and
now operates as part of NextWave Wireless.

TDtv operates in the universal unpaired (TDD) 3G spectrum bands
that are available across Europe and Asia at 1900 MHz and 2010 MHz. It
enables UMTS operators to utilize their existing TDD spectrum to offer
subscribers attractive mobile TV and multimedia packages without
impacting their 3G voice and data services which use universal paired
(FDD) 3G spectrum. In addition, the technology supports network
sharing to further reduce deployment and operational costs.
