Nextcode Exhibits with LogicaCMG at CTIA Wireless Spring 2005

Nextcode Demonstrates Technology on the LogicaCMG Stand at CTIA Convention

New Orleans, LA-CTIA Wireless 2005 – March 14, 2005 – Nextcode Corporation, a leader in optical barcode solutions for mobile devices, today announced that they will participate alongside LogicaCMG, a leading global solutions and IT service provider, during the CTIA Wireless 2005 Convention and Exposition. Nextcode was asked to join the LogicaCMG stand, located at booth number 2855 of the convention, in order to demonstrate Nextcode scanning technology integrated with the LogicaCMG Music Delivery Platform.

Nextcode provides barcode reading software and technology that dramatically enhances the usability of mobile phones to access mobile content, commerce and services. With Nextcode’s technology, a camera phone acts as a scanner and decoder of any two- dimensional code format published in marketing and advertising materials, or even on the computer screen. The Nextcode technology allows instant retrieval of all kinds of information including contact details on a business card, a contest entry, a ringtone or other mobile content.

The Nextcode team has extensive experience developing barcode scanning software for both standard retail and industrial barcode formats. Nextcode has spent the past four years working with camera phone-based scanning solutions and designed their own proprietary code format called mCode™. The mCode was developed to meet the unique technical and business requirements of camera phones and mobile services. The mCode format includes an array of benefits for use in mobile applications not found with other 2-D code formats.

“The fact that LogicaCMG asked us to join their booth at CTIA is flattering,” Jim Levinger, CEO of Nextcode said. “We are pleased to demonstrate code scanning services that leverage LogicaCMG technology for messaging and content delivery.”
