Apple iPhone Visual Voicemail Co-Defendant, SimulScribe, Settles Lawsuit with Klausner Technologies

SimulScribe Signs Patent License for its Visual Voicemail
NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--SimulScribe, LLC., a co-defendant with Apple, Inc.(APPL:NASDAQ) in
the patent infringement lawsuit recently filed by Klausner
Technologies, has settled the litigation and has licensed the Klausner
Technologies visual voicemail patents. Other defendants in the case
include ATT, Inc. (T:NYSE), Comcast Corporation (CMCSA:NASDAQ) and
Cablevision Systems Corp.(CVC:NYSE).

The license covers SimulScribe's visual voicemail service, which
allows subscribers to selectively retrieve voice messages from a
mobile phone or computer display. SimulScribe is the latest defendant,
in a series of lawsuits brought by Klausner Technologies over visual
voicemail, to sign a license with Klausner. Current licensees include
Time Warner's (TWX:NYSE) AOL and Vonage Holdings, Inc. (VG:NYSE),
among others.

Under the patent license agreement with Klausner Technologies, in
addition to SimulScribe's visual voicemail service, its new
'SimulSays' visual voicemail application for RIM BlackBerry and
Windows Mobile phones is now licensed in the US, Canada and Europe.
'SimulSays' enables users to scroll through voicemail messages on a
mobile phone's display and select which voice messages to access and
in what order. It integrates with the phone's contact book, enabling
users to respond to voice messages by email, SMS or phone, directly
from the application.

"We are happy to add SimulScribe to our growing list of licensees.
SimulScribe's visual voicemail for mobile phones and computer inboxes
is an excellent example of our patented visual voice messaging
technology, letting consumers view and select voice messages in a
similar fashion to the way they view and select e-mails," said Judah
Klausner, CEO of Klausner Technologies.

The lawsuit was filed by the California law firm of Dovel & Luner
in a federal court in the Eastern District of Texas. "We have
litigated this patent successfully on prior occasions," said Greg
Dovel of Dovel & Luner, counsel for Klausner Technologies. "With the
signing of each new licensee, we continue to receive further
confirmation of the strength of our visual voicemail patents."
