Notes to Editors:

Sarantel (www.sarantel.com)

Sarantel is a leader in the design of high-performance miniature antennas for
portable wireless applications including hand-held navigation, satellite radio
and laptop computers.

Sarantel's revolutionary ceramic filtering antennas offer dramatically improved
performance over existing antenna designs, resulting in a clearer signal, better
range and a 90 per cent reduction in the amount of signal radiation absorbed by
the body.

Because of their smaller size and higher capabilities, Sarantel's antennas
enable manufacturers to create innovative high-volume consumer products
incorporating technologies such as GPS, Wi-Fi, WiMax, 3G, GPRS, Satellite Radio
and Bluetooth.
