Revenues for the second quarter and first half of 2008 are down significantly
from 2007, reflecting the fact that throughout the end of May, 2008 the
Company's full efforts have been focused on executing the first phase of a
roll-out of installation of the i-vu Systems. The 7,000 screen target for the
first phase of the digital media project roll-out was achieved during the second
quarter.


Although very substantial efforts and costs have been invested in this project,
revenues have not yet commenced. Now that the i-vu Systems installations have
become established, the Company expects to return more of its attention to
pursuing opportunities and sales in its more traditional areas of distance
learning. Gross Profit for the second quarter and first half of 2008 is down
from 2007, reflecting the significant costs of maintaining the i-vu Systems that
have not yet begun to generate revenues.


Operating Loss and Net Loss for the second quarter and first half of 2008 all
increased significantly from 2007 primarily because very substantial efforts and
costs have been invested in this project, while revenues have not yet commenced.
Starting in the second quarter, the Company has deferred making payments on
certain of its obligations under the Definitive Collaboration Agreement with
i-vu usa, inc. pending i-vu's fulfillment of its revenue and other obligations
under the Definitive Collaboration Agreement.
