Intec Extends CDMA Mediation Agreement

Intec Telecom Systems has extended its service agreement with U.S. Cellular and successfully deployed Inter-mediatE 4.0 to provide data measurement and bill processing support for the wireless service provider's next-generation wireless applications. U.S. Cellular will begin deploying its CDMA 1XRTT markets in the autumn of 2003. The applications will enable customers to obtain information such as e-mail, location services, ring tones and games, quickly and easily from their wireless phones.

"These exciting services will improve satisfaction among customers by allowing them to download wireless data applications including news, sports, weather, ring tones, e-mail and games to their wireless handsets," said Karen Kirwan, executive vice president of information services for U.S. Cellular. "With Intec's advanced technology platform, we can ensure accurate billing for these services and provide our customers with the service quality they expect from U.S. Cellular."

"We are pleased to partner with U.S. Cellular on this billing solution and help this leading wireless service provider reaffirm its commitment to providing exceptional service," said Fred Brott, vice-president of North American operations for Intec. "The flexibility and reliability of our advanced technology solution will enable U.S. Cellular to collect and manage information on customers' wireless data usage patterns and accurately bill for next-generation services."
