S3 and Irdeto Bring DVB-H Connectivity to the PC Market
BARCELONA, SPAIN -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 02/12/07 --
3GSM Stand # 2H33, Hall 2 / Stand # 1F17, Hall 1 --
Silicon & Software Systems Ltd. (S3), the world's leading provider
of DVB-H client software, and Irdeto, the proven expert in content
security for digital TV, IPTV and mobile, and a subsidiary of multinational
media group Naspers (NASDAQ: NPSN) and (JSE: NPN), today announced a
technology breakthrough that allows operators to deliver Mobile TV, via a DVB-H
network, to both desktop and laptop PCs using commonly available components.

The new solution uses a standard DVB-T receiver and USB card-reader
to receive DVB-H broadcast services. Both components are commercially
available and the total solution costs less then EUR 100. This
provides an extremely cost effective way for operators to expand
their potential market to include a range of devices that were
previously inaccessible. The solution can be deployed in a number of
different ways, including using an operator-branded, or an accessory
market bundle of DVB-T stick and card-reader, or an operator-branded
hybrid product to provide DVB-H connectivity for laptop and fixed
desktop PCs.

John Maguire, General Manager, Consumer Mobile, S3 commented: "S3 and
Irdeto have recognized that in order to be successful, operators
require new business models to expand their Mobile TV offering. We are
working in partnership with key technology suppliers and operators to
develop solutions that broaden the potential market and can help
deliver increased user numbers and revenues."

Graham Kill, CEO of Irdeto, added, "The solution developed by S3 and
Irdeto offers operators proven, cost effective technology to increase
their audience. It gives operators the ability to further develop
their Mobile TV business model and roll-out services quickly and
effectively."

S3's onHandTV(TM) delivers all the key software required to rapidly
deploy Mobile DTV devices compliant with emerging broadcast, multicast
and unicast standards including DVB-H, T-DMB, DAP-IP, MBMS and 2.5 or
3G. S3's onHandTV guarantees interoperability with all of the
existing commercial DVB-H networks and key technology suppliers in
