Airband Communications Reports Rapid Results From New National Indirect Channel Program

Fixed-WiMAX provider secures more than 30 partners in first two
months
DALLAS--(Business Wire)--Airband Communications Inc., the industry's leading fixed-wireless
company for businesses in the United States, today announced that its
National Indirect Channel Program has enjoyed rapid growth since its
October 2007 launch. In just two months, the channel program has
secured more than 30 partners, including Infobahn, Spiritel and
Allyance Communications.

"We couldn't be more pleased with the initial success of our
channel program," said Zane Long, vice president of indirect channel
sales for Airband. "As more businesses continue to realize the
advantages of Airband's fixed-WiMAX technology, we are confident that
our sales channel will continue to expand and contribute to Airband's
overall growth and market share."

Since the launch of Airband's Indirect Channel Program, several
agents are already driving substantial business, including Debbie
Clavadetscher of Spiritel, who recently sold two high-bandwidth
connections to a healthcare information systems company. "Airband's
program is incredibly efficient and they have been so supportive in
helping agents achieve our sales goals," said Clavadetscher. "My
customer base has been extremely receptive to Airband's sophisticated
WiMAX offering for high-bandwidth last-mile access, WAN extension and
redundancy strategy. I look forward to continued sales growth."

To streamline the channel partner on-boarding process, Airband
conducts twice monthly training webinars. Past webinar topics have
highlighted WiMAX technology, product benefits and sales processes. To
date, more than 75 agents have been trained through Airband's webinar
events.

In December 2007, Airband hosted the first semiannual agent summit
at its Dallas headquarters. Activities included presentations and
roundtable discussions with Airband's executive team on the company's
overall business strategy, major network build-out initiatives and
sales/marketing support programs.

"The agent summit was another success that we have achieved early
on with our indirect channel program," said Long. "Based on initial
feedback, agents were very appreciative of the interaction with our
senior management. The input we gather from our agents during these
summits helps us to continually refine the program to better meet
agents' needs."

As further evidence of the channel program's initial success,
Airband has appointed new regional channel managers to facilitate and
engage partners. Regional channel managers each have more than a
decade of telecommunications experience, and are strategically located
throughout the country, including the East Coast, West Coast, Midwest
and Southwest.

Airband offers a comprehensive portfolio of high-speed data,
virtual private network (VPN) and other managed solutions through its
indirect channel partners. The company owns and operates the
industry's leading fixed-wireless network based on WiMAX technology,
and focuses solely on businesses. Airband has more than 3,500
customers nationwide.

A partnership with Airband provides access to a superior,
economical and reliable last-mile network. Also, because Airband's
fixed-wireless network bypasses the traditional wireline
infrastructure, partners benefit from faster installations which
translates into faster payments.
