ClickPLAY, Inc. announced today an agreement with GEO Interactive (LSE:GIM.LN) to package and deliver audio and video content that will allow consumers to preview and purchase music and video entertainment using Emblaze(TM)-enabled mobile telephones and other wireless handheld devices.

As one of the first content providers to sign with GEO Interactive, ClickPLAY will provide previews of digital media content in standard-compliant MPEG-4 format to be featured in Emblaze Wireless trials to consumers, wireless device manufacturers and network carriers around the world.

Under the terms of the agreement, ClickPLAY will gather and package high-quality previews of music, movies and other video content for the Emblaze Wireless back-end solution. ClickPLAY has already signed agreements to demonstrate this technology with selected preview content from Gold Circle Entertainment, and preview material from the Internet feature film Quantum Project from SightSound.com. ClickPLAY is also negotiating content deals with a number of Music and Filmed Entertainment organizations.

"The ClickPLAY/GEO agreement effectively creates the world's first wireless media preview network," says Alan Kaplan, founder and CEO of ClickPLAY.

Adds Kaplan: "By offering a new way for users of wireless devices to experience previews and purchase high-quality entertainment, ClickPLAY gives our associates in the entertainment world a tremendous new outlet for plugging in to the wireless world. We are proud to be involved with GEO Interactive, the hands-down leader of the new wireless media generation."

"We believe that as a pioneer in delivering an end-to-end video streaming solution over wireless networks, it is key to have applications and services such as ClickPLAY Wireless, which will define a category for new revenue streams in the coming years," said Sasson Darwish, president of GEO's U.S. Operations.
