HONG KONG, Aug. 22 -- China
Digital Media Corporation (''Digimedia'') (OTC Bulletin Board: CDGT
¡V News) today announced the launch of a trial for a new IP based
Set-Top-Box ("STB") in Nanhai, a city in Guangdong province
with 400,000 Cable TV subscribers. The Company is one of the first
digital TV operators in China to deploy the trial of IP based STB
with its high-end users. The new STB in trial is equipped with an
Ethernet port which could facilitate various Internet based services
to end users; such as video-on-demand, online shopping channels,
online games and interactive education services. The new STB is
developed in coordination with Shenzhen Coship Electronics Co. Ltd.
(''Coship'') that could transform a television set into an interactive
and a multimedia platform.
''Partnering with Coship in developing the IP based
STB is our strategy in advancing the quality of our broadcasting
services. We believe the provision of value-added services through
digitalized network will be a new business model in digital TV operation
and this new IP based STB will give us a head start,'' said Mr.
Daniel Ng, Chairman and CEO of China Digital Media Corporation.
''We intend to invest and participate in system migration projects
in other cities like our Nanhai model. This collaboration with Coship
and the new IP based STB will provide us a convincing advantage
to gain more contracts in the future that would allow our Company
to grow faster and to enlarge our service coverage,'' Mr. Ng added.
