SAN JOSE, Calif., PalmSource Mobile Summit and DevCon, May 24, 2005 — Today, Kinoma, Inc. (www.kinoma.com) demonstrated RTSP streaming playback at the PalmSource developer conference, providing a glimpse into the future of the award–winning Kinoma Player 3 EX. RTSP is the streaming media network protocol mandated by the 3GPP cellular phone industry consortium for delivery of streaming audio and video to mobile phones. Kinoma successfully demonstrated 3GPP compliant RTSP streaming of live video to a Treo™ 650 smartphone from palmOne over the Sprint PCS network and to a Tungsten T5 from palmOne over a WiFi/802.11b connection. Kinoma's RTSP demonstration also included streaming of pre–recorded audio and video, compressed with industry standard MPEG–4 video and AAC audio.

When Kinoma delivers the RTSP enabled version of Kinoma Player 3 EX later this year, owners of internet–enabled Palm Powered™ mobile devices and smartphones will be able to enjoy streaming audio and video content from the growing number of content providers delivering digital media using RTSP.

"Advancing the superior digital media capabilities of Palm OS®, Kinoma Player 3 EX with RTSP streaming enables quick, easy access to mobile video content," said Larry Berkin, director of developer marketing of PalmSource. "Kinoma's addition of RTSP streaming support allows access to an even broader array of mobile video content for users of Palm Powered mobile devices and smartphones."
