  2. Mobilian Update and Overview • Wireless-combo communication systems • Fabless Semiconductor • Proven experts in multi-standard radios • Industry acknowledged leaders in coexistence • 20+ patent portfolio covering many aspects of wireless subsystem • Interference management, multi-standard radios, radio integration • $70+ million in funding from leading VCs

  3. Manpreet S. Khaira, Chairman, President and CEO Former Director, Advanced Technology, Intel Brett Monello, VP, Operations Former Director, Services Operations, SGI Robert Gilmore, VP, Engineering Former Senior Vice President, Qualcomm Frank Hanzlik, VP, Marketing Former Senior Manager, Marketing, Dell Computer Corporation David Lyle, Chief Financial Officer Former Senior Manager, Finance, Intel Greg Zafiris, Director, Legal Services Attorney, Formerly of Ater Wynne Jim Lansford, VP, Business Development Former Wireless Systems Architect, Intel Mobilian’s Team – Broad Base of Talent Gordon Schenk, VP, Sales Former Sr. Director of Sales, Infineon Technologies

  4. To enable communication and computing devices to automatically detect wireless networking opportunities, select the ones needed, and connect to them reliably. Mobilian’s Vision: TrueConnectivity™ Optimized through integrated WPAN+WLAN+WWAN technology

  5. Mobilian’s Vision: TrueConnectivity™ Cellular

  6. Market Update:The Bluetooth Market Is Gaining Momentum Bluetooth Unit Shipments (actuals and estimates in millions) 2001A 2002A/E 2003E 2004E 2005E 11 M 50 M 170 M 430 M 660 M • Microsoft XP support will further catalyze adoption • Over 700 Bluetooth qualified products; over 350 end-user products (over 100 listed in the last 3 months) • Peripherals, gateways, consumer electronics, car kits… • Interoperability (ease of use) is the watch word… main focus of SIG for 2002 and 2003 source: BT SIG, SG Cowen, IDC, GG, Cahners, UBSW, Mobilian “Bluetooth will likely be the most successful wireless interface ever, potentially shipping in the billions of units by late in the decade.” – Martin Reynolds, Gartner Group

  7. Market Update:WLAN is on a roll… • Wi-Fi certified products experienced 504% compound growth since 2000 • Certified interoperability and user experience are catalysts • 2.4 GHz products represent greater than 40% of market through 2006* • High-speed WLAN expected to contribute to market refresh and longevity • 802.11g will be strong in consumer electronics and virgin WLAN deployments “If any one technology has emerged the past few years that will be explosive in its impact, it's 802.11.” – Bill Gates, Chairman Microsoft *Allied Business Intelligence, In-Stat, USBCorp

  8. Complementary Technologies That Support Combination Usage Models • Wi-Fi and Bluetooth drive demand for one another • Gateway platforms such as PCs and set-top boxes will benefit from Wi-Fi/Bluetooth combination • Existing combo platforms: IBM a31 and x30; Toshiba e740; Toshiba Portégé 4000; Apple OSX &

  9. Combo Wi-Fi/Bluetooth is a Natural Market, but Coexistence Is Crucial No interference (>2 m) WLAN Throughput • Testing of available combo platforms confirms coexistence issues* • Adaptive Frequency Hopping may be optional in 1.2, and is only good outside 0.5 meters according to the BT SIG* • MAC-switching is NOT suitable for voice, or adjacent channel interference • Sim-Op is the only technology capable of true “coexistence without compromise”TM (802.11b - miniPCI; BT - Integrated Daughter Card) 6 Graceful degradation (0.5-2 m) 5 4 Throughput (Mbps) 3 2 1 0 -20 -30 -40 -50 -60 -70 RSSI (dBm) *sources: Bluetooth Coexistence Work Group; Mobilian Corporation

  10. Mobilian Introduces TrueRadio™ • The only combination chipset to offer Sim-Op™ technology, providing true simultaneous operation of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth • The most highly integratedWi-Fi / Bluetooth combination chipset in the market • 2 Chip solution (single AFE and single BB/MAC) • Room for integration of additional technologies • Extensible to smaller form factor designs • Conceived and designed to be the best combination Wi-Fi / Bluetooth product available

  11. Digital (TRD): Complete 802.11b and BT Baseband and MAC • 0.18μm CMOS technology • 208 pin FPBGA package • 3.3V interface, 1.8V core power supply • A/D and D/A converters • Microprocessor core (ARM7TDMI) • 200 Kbytes RAM • Fab: TSMC Introducing TrueRadio™: • Analog (TRA): Complete 802.11b and Bluetooth radios • 0.8μm BiCMOS technology • 68 pin QFN package • Integrated LNAs (2), VCOs (2), VGAs (2), PLLs (2) • 3.3V power supply • Fab: MAXIM

  12. The Benefits of Sim-Op™ • Sim-Op™ – Abbreviation of “Simultaneous Operation” • Allows collocated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to operate simultaneously with virtually no performance degradation • No usage caveats or poor user experiences… • It just works! Conference Room Scenario Office Scenario Individual Scenario

  13. Why Sim-Op™ Is Superior • Bluetooth or WLAN or Combination… • It’s all completely automatic for the end user • Analog, digital, antenna, software techniques used to provide system-level approach • No applications restrictions – Sim-Op technology provides “Coexistence without Compromise”™ • Voice – TR is the only combo solution to support simultaneous Wi-Fi plus Bluetooth voice • Data – All combination data applications • IP-protected differentiation • Mobilian has strong IP portfolio centered on coexistence • Transferable to other ISM-band technologies

  14. Achieves max theoretical throughput (~ 723 Kb/s) Industry leading receiver sensitivity: - 87dBm; 2-4 x typical range Supports SCO in all modes of operation Supports 8 member piconet Supports scatternet Industry leading throughput (6.8 Mb/s UDP; 5.5 Mb/s TCP) Integrated WEP encryption hardware engine (40 & 128 bit); avoids typical 15-30% performance degradation with software implementation Designed from ground-up to be robust under interference TrueRadio™ Features and Performance • Mobilian’s TrueRadio solution performance in standalone Bluetooth and Wi-Fi typically as good or better than competing standalone solutions

  15. TrueRadio vs Blue802 Comparison • Integration • 4+ chips • ~200+ components • User Experience • Not simultaneous operation • Data only support • Integration • 2 chip solution • ~110 components • User Experience • True Simultaneous Operation • Data and Voice Support Mobilian TrueRadio Blue802 – Source: Intersil

  16. TrueRadio Update • Working silicon in the hands of select ODM’s • Pending partnership announcements with major ODM providers • TrueRadio chipset volume production slated for Q1 2003

  17. TrueRadio Server PC CardBus Extender Ethernet 802.11b AP Host PC BT Enabled Phone True Radio Demo Set-up

  18. Mobilian’s Future – Faster, Smaller, Cheaper, Better • New Platforms – TrueRadio is highly extensible to other platforms (e.g., handhelds, peripherals, etc) • New Form Factors – TrueRadio is ideal to extend to smaller form factors • WLAN – Mobilian will comply with SSN*, and is also developing an 802.11g/Bluetooth combo • Bluetooth – Bluetooth 1.2 will be implemented when the time and features are right (~end of 2004) * Safe, Secure, Networking

  19. Summary • The wireless market is ripe for combination Wi-Fi/Bluetooth solutions • TrueRadio is the superior solution to capitalize on this market opportunity • Mobilian now engaging with early adopter partners
