Crown Castle International announced today that its subsidiary, Modeo, has launched a live, commercial quality mobile TV beta service in New York City after more than three years of development. The Modeo beta service includes live video content from leading network programmers such as Fox News, Discovery Channel and others, as well as streaming audio content from Music Choice, to Modeo Mobile TV Smartphones. Initial distribution of the Modeo Mobile TV Smartphones to beta service participants began in the last week of 2006 and will continue throughout the first quarter of 2007.

Visitors to CES in Las Vegas will have an opportunity to preview Modeo's service and Smartphone functionality in demonstrations with Microsoft Corporation and HTC, the developer and manufacturer of Modeo's Smartphone, in Booth 7144. IBM will showcase the new Modeo Mobile TV Smartphone in Booth 36631 in South Hall 4, Upper Level. Modeo will also deliver live broadcast signals and demonstrations during the Mobile DTV Alliance press and analyst event at the Gordon Biersch Brewery on Monday, January 8, starting at 5:30 pm.

Modeo will stage its New York City beta activities in phases throughout the first quarter of 2007. Activities include the initiation of a formal beta test group that is scheduled to commence in late January. To further showcase the DVB-H mobile TV opportunity, Modeo is offering service to a select group of wireless carriers, reporters, industry analysts, financial analysts, and content providers. Modeo anticipates several hundred users will participate during the course of Modeo beta service.

''Modeo is pleased to have this opportunity to showcase our progress toward delivering on the promise of mobile TV,'' commented Michael Ramke, Modeo's recently appointed president and former vice president of marketing and business development. ''By moving beyond technical trial efforts and into true commercial grade network service, we continue to position Modeo as an integral player in the dynamic mobile TV space. Participants in our New York beta service will have a front row seat in the evolution of mobile TV.''
