 Forbidden Technologies PLC and Mobile Entertainment Corporation Develop Video
                     Content for QUALCOMM's BREW(TM) Platform


Forbidden Technologies plc, ('Forbidden' or the 'Company') which is developing
and marketing proprietary technology for video distribution over the fixed line
and mobile Internet, announces an agreement with Mobile Entertainment
Corporation (MEC), the providers of premium entertainment across mobile
platforms to develop video content for QUALCOMM's Binary Runtime Environment for
Wireless(TM) (BREW(TM)) platform.  MEC has agreed to use Forbidden's mobile video
compression technology to enhance the content of MEC's sports, music, gaming and
lifestyle channels.



MEC plans to use Forbidden's video compression technology to develop full
screen, high frame rate video clips for BREW-enabled handsets.  Using the BREW
Distribution System, QUALCOMM will make the video-based applications available
to wireless service providers deploying the BREW-based services to wireless
subscribers.  Currently, KTF in Korea, KDDI in Japan and Verizon Wireless in the
United States provide BREW-enabled products and services to their customers.
More than one million end users around the world have purchased and activated
BREW-enabled handsets since November 2001.



Amy Mokady, Director of Business Development, QUALCOMM Internet Services said;



'QUALCOMM is pleased that MEC and Forbidden have chosen the BREW(TM) solution to
deliver their applications and services to multiple wireless service providers
worldwide.  We look forward to the exciting new content that they plan to
deliver to the BREW marketplace.'



Greg Hirst, Business Development Director, Forbidden Technologies commented:



'Our technology will allow MEC to deploy high quality video content within its
Mobile Channels.  It will give wireless service providers compelling content
with which to increase revenues from their existing infrastructure.



'We are pleased to be a part of this dynamic relationship with MEC and look
forward to working with the BREW(TM) team at QUALCOMM.'



Tim Hammond, Chief Executive Officer, MEC said:



'The mobile generation is anxious to receive entertainment content that utilizes
the full spectrum of rich media. With Forbidden's technology and QUALCOMM's BREW
solution, MEC can launch new and exciting mobile video channels to attract a
broad customer base who use existing wireless networks, and add the United
States and the Far East to MEC's current pan-European operator reach.'
