Motorola Reports Second-Quarter Results

SCHAUMBURG, Ill., Jul 11, 2001 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Motorola, Inc.
(NYSE:MOT) today reported sales of $7.5 billion in the second quarter
of 2001. For ongoing operations, this is a decrease of 19 percent
from $9.3 billion a year earlier. Including pro forma adjustments,
the company incurred a loss of $232 million, or (11) cents per share,
compared with earnings of $551 million, or 25 cents per share a year
ago.
Robert L. Growney, president and chief operating officer,
said, "Despite the difficulties the telecom and semiconductor
industries continue to experience and our operational loss for the
second quarter, we continue to strengthen our balance sheet. Cash
flow from operations was strongly positive at approximately $1
billion. The actions we have taken to improve the performance of the
wireless telephone segment of our business are beginning to show
positive results with new products and orders. The Office of the
Chairman is also working very closely with our semiconductor
management in efforts to revitalize that business."

In the second quarter of 2001, Motorola reported pro forma
adjustments resulting in a net charge of $496 million pre-tax, or 24
cents per share after-tax. Charges were incurred primarily relating
to various cost-reduction activities and asset impairments, many of
which did not result in a tax benefit. These charges were partially
offset by gains from sales of investments.

In the second quarter of 2000, the company reported pro forma
adjustments resulting in a net charge of $355 million pre-tax, or 16
cents per share after-tax, which was largely comprised of in-process
research and development charges, not deductible for tax purposes,
related to acquisitions completed during that quarter.

Excluding pro forma adjustments, the second-quarter 2001 loss was
$759 million, or (35) cents per share, compared with earnings of $204
million, or 9 cents per share, in the second quarter of 2000.

Growney reviewed the following results of major operations for the
second quarter of 2001 compared with the second quarter of 2000. This
review is based on ongoing operations, including pro forma
adjustments.



     Personal Communications Segment

Segment sales were $2.5 billion, down 25 percent. Orders were $2.9
billion, down 9 percent. The segment incurred an operating loss of
$237 million versus operating earnings of $136 million a year ago.
The decline in financial performance is due to lower worldwide demand
for wireless telephones by service providers and average selling
price declines resulting from substantial shipments of end-of-life
products.
In the Americas, sales and orders for wireless telephones were down.
In Europe, sales were down very significantly and orders were
significantly lower. In Asia, sales were lower, while orders were
significantly higher.

Shortly after the close of the quarter, Motorola and Hutchison
Whampoa Group signed a Third-Generation (3G) handset contract that
runs through 2003. Motorola was named a Hutchison "preferred
supplier" of 3G, Universal Mobile Telecommunications Services (UMTS)
devices in its key markets including Australia, Austria, Italy,
Sweden and the United Kingdom. The contract has an estimated value of
more than $700 million. Shipments are expected to begin in the second
half of 2002.

In North America, two new wireless telephones for Code Division
Multiple Access (CDMA) technology, the V.Series(TM) 60c and V120c,
became available nationwide in the United States. Motorola also began
shipping its Timeport(TM) 270c phone in regional markets. All three
CDMA devices are tailored to specific consumer segments and include
Motorola's new and improved user interface.

Motorola began U.S. shipments of its V.Series V100 personal
communicator. Based on Global System for Mobile (GSM) Communications
technology, the first-of-its-kind device includes a full keyboard and
oversize display for fast and easy text messaging, plus a full-
featured wireless phone. Motorola also began delivering its new,
compact and easy-to-use Talkabout(R) 189 phone in Asia and began
shipping to Korea its first 3G phone based on CDMA 1X technology.

Motorola also shipped its one millionth Talkabout T900 2-Way text
messaging device less than a year after its introduction. The first
two Java(TM) technology-enabled wireless telephones in North America,
the Motorola iDEN(R) i85s and i50sx models, were made available to
subscribers.



     Global Telecom Solutions Segment

Segment sales were $1.7 billion, down 14 percent. Orders declined 6
percent to $2.0 billion. Operating earnings declined to $47 million,
compared with $258 million a year ago. Operating earnings declined
due to a decrease in sales stemming from lower worldwide demand for
wireless infrastructure equipment by service providers and an
increase in manufacturing costs.
In the Americas, sales and orders were lower. In Europe, sales and
orders were down significantly. In Asia, sales were down while orders
were up.

Motorola won 11 contracts valued at $407 million as part of China
Unicom's nationwide deployment of CDMA digital network technology.
Motorola also was awarded more than $600 million in additional
contracts with China Mobile and China Unicom during the second
quarter for GSM networks.

Motorola will provide a 3G radio access network under a supply
contract awarded by Hutchison Telecommunications for a UMTS network
in Brisbane and Sydney, Australia.

After the quarter ended, Motorola announced it had won its first two
contracts to supply 3G CDMA infrastructure in Latin America. The
contracts, awarded by Portugal Telecom and valued at approximately
$147 million, are for its Brazilian cellular operators Telesp Celular
and Global Telecom. Motorola also announced a $150 million GSM
infrastructure expansion contract with BT Cellnet, a leading UK
mobile operator.



     Commercial, Government and Industrial Systems Segment

Segment sales declined 8 percent to $1.0 billion and orders decreased
4 percent to $1.2 billion. Operating earnings decreased to $66
million from $117 million a year ago due to a decline in sales and an
increase in manufacturing costs as a percentage of sales.
In the Americas, two-way radio equipment sales and orders were down.
In Europe, sales were down significantly and orders were down. In
Asia, sales were down and orders were down significantly.

Motorola was awarded contracts for TETRA (TErrestrial Trunked RAdio)-
compliant radio equipment in China and the UK. Motorola and SAIT-
STENTO were granted a license from the Danish Telecom Authority to
establish and provide service on a new, TETRA-based digital mobile
radio network.

Motorola was awarded a contract for a statewide ASTRO 25(TM) digital
radio system from the State of South Dakota. The company also signed
an agreement to purchase, operate and upgrade SCANA Communications'
statewide radio system, which serves public safety agencies and
utilities throughout South Carolina.

Additional large radio equipment contracts were received in Asia,
Australia, Europe, Latin America and the United States.

Motorola announced that it was exploring strategic alternatives for
its Integrated Information Systems Group (IISG) business, including a
possible divestiture. IISG is an Arizona-based government
communication/information technology business.



     Broadband Communications Segment

Segment sales increased 7 percent to $820 million but orders fell 16
percent to $760 million. Operating earnings increased to $145 million
from $137 million a year ago.
Digital Network Systems had a significant increase in sales but a
decline in orders. Internet Protocol Network Systems had lower sales
and higher orders. Transmission Network Systems had a significant
decline in sales and in orders. Satellite Broadcast and Network
Systems had an increase in sales and in orders.

Motorola announced two important industry milestones during the
quarter by shipping its 15 millionth interactive digital cable set-
top terminal and its five millionth cable modem. Motorola is the
first and only supplier to reach these broadband-industry milestones.

Motorola's commercial deployment of Voice over IP (Internet Protocol)
solutions continues to see progress. Kabel NRW, a network operator
affiliated with Callahan Associates, has recently upgraded
approximately 100,000 homes in Germany with Motorola transmission
equipment and will begin commercial deployment of our IP telephony
equipment later this year. Additionally, United Pan-Europe
Communications N.V., eKabel and others have begun installation of
Motorola's digital headend equipment featuring MediaCipher(TM)
Conditional Access technology in various European markets.

In China, Motorola was selected to supply optical and RF transmission
products to Beijing Gehua CATV Network Co., which are intended to
enable Beijing Gehua CATV to offer advanced video, voice, high-speed
Internet access, and other data services.



     Semiconductor Products Segment

Segment sales decreased 38 percent to $1.3 billion and orders
declined 51 percent to $1.0 billion. The segment had an operating
loss of $381 million versus operating earnings of $176 million a year
ago due to the decline in sales and orders, which are part of a very
substantial downturn occurring across the worldwide semiconductor
industry. This also caused an increase in manufacturing costs as a
percentage of sales.
Sales were down significantly in Europe and the Americas and down in
Asia/Pacific and Japan. Sales among major markets were down very
significantly in standard embedded solutions, down significantly in
wireless and network/computing and down in imaging/entertainment and
transportation.

Orders were down very significantly in the Americas and Europe, down
significantly in Japan and Asia/Pacific. Among major markets, orders
were down very significantly in standard embedded solutions, wireless
and networking/computing, down significantly in imaging/entertainment
and down in transportation.

Motorola announced several new members of its PowerQUICC(TM) family,
the industry's most widely used communication processors. Built on
the Smart Networks Platform, these products are used in cellular base
stations, telecom switching, remote access concentrators and ATM
(asynchronous transfer mode) applications.

Motorola also introduced two new products within its DragonBall(TM)
microprocessor (MPU) family, the industry's leading MPUs for handheld
computers and portable wireless devices. The new ARM core-based MX1
multimedia platform and the MC68000-based SuperVZ both offer system
solutions for 2.5G and 3G portable wireless devices.

Motorola's mobileGT(TM) architecture for driver information systems
was selected by Hyundai Autonet Co. Motorola is a key member of the
mobileGT alliance of companies whose technologies are enabling
automakers worldwide to bring "smart cars" to consumers.



     Integrated Electronic Systems Segment

Segment sales decreased 19 percent to $549 million and orders
decreased 21 percent to $554 million. The segment incurred an
operating loss of $3 million versus operating earnings of $45 million
a year ago due to a decline in sales of higher margin products.
During the quarter, the Automotive and Industrial Electronics Group
was combined with the Telematics Communications Group to form the new
Automotive Communications and Electronic Systems (ACES) Group. This
reorganization is expected to enable Motorola to offer a broader
automotive communications solutions portfolio. ACES sales and orders
decreased. Sales and orders of automotive electronics and
communications systems were down due to lower production in the
automotive industry. Sales of telematics systems were up very
significantly and orders were higher.

ACES and Trafficmaster, PLC announced plans to jointly produce a
dynamic navigation system, called T-nav service, which is expected to
incorporate real-time, traffic-flow data.

Motorola Computer Group (MCG) sales were down significantly while
orders were down very significantly due to the downturn in the
telecommunications industry, its major market. After the quarter
ended, Motorola completed its acquisition of Blue Wave Systems, Inc.,
a leading supplier of high-channel Digital Signal Processing (DSP)
subsystems used in telecommunication infrastructure equipment. The
acquisition is intended to strengthen MCG's ability to provide DSP
solutions to that market and gives MCG a stronger presence in Europe.

Energy Systems Group sales and orders were down due to the decrease
in demand for portable and handheld devices.



     Other

Motorola announced that it had completed the sale of its investments
in four cellular operating companies in northern Mexico to
Telefonica, SA. Motorola also sold its investments in cellular
operating companies in Hong Kong, southern Mexico and South Korea.
After the quarter ended, Motorola announced that it had signed an
agreement to sell its Multiservice Networks Division to Platinum
Equity.

Motorola has a loan of approximately $2 billion to Telsim, a GSM
operator in Turkey. At the end of April, $728 million of the loan
became due and was not paid. In June, following Telsim's event of
default, Motorola accelerated all payments due under the loan.
Motorola continues to explore alternatives for repayment of the loan,
including legal action.



     Review and Outlook

Christopher B. Galvin, chairman and chief executive officer,
said, "During the second quarter, Motorola recorded strong, positive
cash flow from operations; reduced receivables; reduced inventories;
reduced short-term and total debt; while simultaneously, increasing
its cash position. We know how to manage in recessionary environments
and all businesses in Motorola will continue to be very focused on
maintaining a strong balance sheet and improving operating cash flow.
"Motorola sensed the downturn of the telecom and semiconductor
industries over 10 months ago and began reducing its costs early.
Most industry participants and experts have acknowledged the reality
of the sharpest downturns in high-tech in decades. Newly revised
government data shows that the decline in communications equipment
orders is worse than many in the industry first believed. The
industry's fundamentals are weak and the imbalance between
inventories and demand has spilled over into Europe.

"Despite the economy, our new products are again capturing the
imagination of service providers and consumers. Our wireless
telephone business, for example, is already beginning to show signs
of recovery and we expect to see an increase in customer demand,
especially for our new 2.5G products, starting in the third quarter.

"The semiconductor industry should resume a double-digit growth
pattern next year. Renewed demand, fueled by new products, combined
with a reduction in excess manufacturing capacity in both the
wireless telephone and semiconductor industries, is reducing
inventories, and over time, inventories are expected to return to
normal levels.

"We continue to review, renew and adjust our strategies to ensure
Motorola is in attractive businesses. We will continue to invest to
develop or acquire the technologies necessary to ensure the success
of our businesses. All of our efforts are focused on leading Motorola
out of this high-tech recession and creating value for our
shareholders."

Enterasys Networks Announces Plans to Become an Independent Public
Company On August 6, 2001
Business Wire - July 10, 2001 18:17
ROCHESTER, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 10, 2001--


    Enterasys Will Be Listed on the New York Stock Exchange Under the
                              Symbol "ETS"
Enterasys Networks(TM) today announced its plans for the final stages
of its evolution toward becoming an independent public company. These
plans were outlined today in a conference call led by Henry Fiallo,
Enterasys' chairman and CEO.

Enterasys Networks plans to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange
(NYSE) under the ticker symbol "ETS" on August 6, 2001. Prior to the
public launch, Enterasys will initiate a full-scale effort to
communicate Enterasys' strategy to investors. This will include a
roadshow beginning the week of July 23, 2001, the release of its
historical financial results, and the communication of future
expectations.

"I am very excited to announce that Enterasys has reached its goal of
becoming an independent public company. To reach this goal in such a
rapid time frame is a testament to the hard work, dedication and
focus of every Enterasys employee worldwide. We have come a long way
since our inception in March of 2000, and today's announcement shows
that our focus on meeting the needs of enterprise customers and
delivering industry-leading products and solutions has Enterasys well
positioned for future growth," Fiallo said.

With its focus on the enterprise market, one of the most stable and
strongest growth areas in the networking sector, Enterasys has
completed a number of significant achievements in its brief 15-month
history.


     --  Enterasys is a market leader with a strong position in key
         growth segments, specifically the high-growth Layer 3 modular
         switching market. The Dell'Oro Group reported Enterasys as the
         only company to show quarterly market share growth in the
         Ethernet Switch market. With all other competitors losing
         market share during the prior quarter, Enterasys further
         enhanced its #1 market position.

     --  Enterasys is the leading technology innovator in the
         enterprise market, and was the first company to announce a
         10-Gigabit Ethernet strategy. Enterasys is the leader in 54
         Mbps (802.11a) wireless, already shipping the industry's first
         access platform. The breadth and depth of our product line
         gives Enterasys a significant competitive advantage over niche
         vendors. In fact, Technology Review recently ranked Enterasys
         as one of the top ten technology innovators in the world. In
         reviewing factors such as technology strength, number of
         patents, and technology cycle time, Enterasys joined companies
         such as Nokia, Motorola, and Qualcomm in the top ten.

     --  Enterasys has a blue-chip customer base, with 34 of the global
         50 and over half of the 250 largest U.S. enterprises as
         customers. In addition, Enterasys sold to more than 600 new
         customers in its first year, with approximately 20% of its
         revenues coming from these customers.

     --  Enterasys' transformation to a channel-based sales model and
         its "high-touch" approach to channel partners and customers
         have been instrumental in the company's success. With hundreds
         of sales and technical experts worldwide, Enterasys and its
         partners are able to deliver the highest level of service and
         support in the industry.

Current Developments At Loch Harris, Inc.

AUSTIN, Texas-- (BUSINESS WIRE)--July 7, 2001--Loch Harris, Inc. (OTC:
LOCH) (the "Company" or "Loch Harris") is continuing development of its
chemical detection technology through the efforts of Malcolm Philips,
Dr. Wade Poteet and others.  Dr. Poteet is one of the principal
scientists associated with the technology and has spearheaded the
development of the technology over the past several years.  Based on
these efforts, development of the technology is moving forward on
several fronts.

As announced in previous press releases, the Company had been
negotiating with CDEX - Inc., a Delaware Corporation (CDEX - Delaware)
for the possible transfer to CDEX - Delaware of the Company's chemical
detection technologies, including the ELF and VAAMP systems, in exchange
for stock in CDEX - Delaware.  The intention of the Company was to
spin-off a significant portion of the CDEX - Delaware stock received by
the Company to the Company's shareholders.  CDEX - Delaware was to
develop and market products associated with the technology.  An impasse
to the proposal developed which could not be resolved.  Consequently,
Loch Harris has formed CDEX - Inc., a Nevada corporation (CDEX -
Nevada), into which it intends to transfer its chemical  detection
technologies in exchange for stock in CDEX - Nevada.  The intention of
the Company is to spin-off a significant portion of the CDEX-Nevada
stock received by the Company, to the Company's shareholders. CDEX -
Nevada intends to enter into contractual arrangements with Malcolm
Philips, Dr. Wade Poteet, and others, for the continuing development of
the technology.

In response to questions concerning Henry Blair's academic credentials,
the Company requested him  to verify, validate or explain his
educational background as previously represented to the Company.  Henry
Blair had previously  represented to the Company that he had various
degrees, including a Doctorate Degree.  On July 2, 2001, without
addressing the Company's actual request, Blair's attorney  responded
that Henry Blair was experiencing declining health and therefore does
not anticipate any further involvement with Loch Harris or future
research  projects.

Loch Harris has provided certain component parts of the ELF machine to
the Federal Bureau of Investigation in connection with an ongoing
investigation.  To date, this has not significantly hampered the
continuing development of the technology.  The Company is continuing its
search for an independent auditor to replace its previous auditor, which
resigned, but to date has not been successful.

On June 28, 2001, Mr. Robert B. Baker resigned as both Chairman of the
Board of Directors and a Director of the Company due to health concerns.
  The Board of Directors named Rodney Boone, a current Director and
President of the Company, as acting Chairman of the Board.

Motorola's Multiservice Networks Division to be Acquired by Platinum
EquityPlatinum Expands Portfolio to Focus on Growing Managed Network
Solutions Opportunities

SCHAUMBURG, Ill. and LOS ANGELES, Jul 5, 2001 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --
Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) and Platinum Equity, a privately held firm
specializing in the acquisition and operation of mission-critical technology
companies, today announced they have signed an agreement for Platinum Equity
to acquire Motorola's Multiservice Networks Division (MND). Terms of the
agreement were not disclosed. The sale, which is subject to customary
regulatory approvals and other closing conditions, is expected to be
completed before the end of this year.
Over the past 20 years, MND has emerged as a leading source of managed
network solutions for the enterprise. The division helps customers meet
their most important business challenges by combining the right
technologies, proven experience and expertise, and a state-of-the-art
network operation center, through fully customized, end-to-end solutions
designed to meet industry- specific needs. With approximately 600 employees,
MND offers a full range of services including network design,
implementation, integration, and secure network operations and management to
customers throughout the world. The division is being divested to allow
Motorola to increase its focus on business areas that are strategic to the
company long term.

"The MND managed network solutions are a strong addition to our portfolio,"
said Tom T. Gores, Platinum Equity president and chief executive officer.
"We will aggressively pursue growth through the Network Operations Center."
Gores continued, "We are continuing to build our presence in the network
space and see the employees and customers of MND as important components in
our continuing drive to create new value."

The addition of MND will strengthen the Platinum Equity portfolio of network
operations including Nextira, a recently acquired company focused on the
deployment and support of voice, data and converged solutions. Platinum
Equity's current plans are to maintain MND's headquarters in Mansfield,
Mass., and the company stated it plans to announce its operational strategy
shortly after the close of the acquisition.

"MND has evolved in exciting ways," said William E. Spencer, senior vice
president for Motorola. "From its initial role in networking hardware to its
current success in managed network solutions, MND has provided outstanding
value to its customers. While MND's new service focus is not central to
Motorola's core business and long-term strategic intent, we are pleased we
have found a company such as Platinum that is committed to taking MND to the
next level."

Proxim to widely miss earnings estimates
By: Sam Ames
6/28/01 1:25 PM
Source: News.com


Wireless network equipment maker Proxim slashed second-quarter revenue estimates
Thursday because of a lurching business climate.
The Sunnyvale, Calif.-based company said it expects revenue between $23 million
and $26 million and pro forma earnings between 3 cents and 7 cents a share.
Executives also hinted that the company might consider future layoffs.


Analysts surveyed by First Call expected the company to generate revenue of
$32.6 million and earnings of 16 cents a share for the quarter. Proxim posted
revenue of $29.5 million and pro forma earnings of 14 cents a share in the first
quarter.


"The telecom equipment industry slowdown has finally reached the wireless LAN
(local area networks) side," said Colin McCardle, an analyst with investment
bank Bear Sterns.


Proxim still expressed faith in the long-term demand for wireless technology but
blamed the expected earnings miss on the broad slowdown currently raising havoc
in the tech sector.


The company also said that it will take a charge in the quarter to account for
excess and outdated inventory as well as a restructuring charge.


"A lot of purchase commitments and decisions have been deferred or just pushed
out indefinitely until people get a clear idea of what their spending budgets
will look like," Proxim Chief Executive David King said in a conference call.


King also said the company misjudged the significance of the slowdown in sales
of older equipment and hinted that future layoffs are a possibility. "We will be
looking to cut discretionary spending and even looking at some restructuring
actions on the headcount side coming out of this weak (second quarter)."


Proxim makes equipment that runs on a networking standard called HomeRF,
technology that wirelessly links computers and laptops together so they can swap
data and share a Net connection. Companies like Motorola, Siemens and Compaq
Computer make equipment that use the standard.


However, Proxim is getting heat from another protocol, 802.11B, also known as
Wi-Fi, which has received support from tech giants like Intel, Lucent
Technologies, Cisco Systems, 3Com and Apple Computer, leading some analysts to
believe that HomeRF is on its way out the door.


Proxim's King admitted in the conference call that Wi-Fi has a large advantage
in the business market, but also believes that HomeRF still fights a "pitched
battle" for supremacy in the home market.


On the bright side, analysts expressed optimism over Proxim's new product line
called Harmony, which is designed for businesses and can run on a variety of
standards, which will make the current conflict less of an issue.


The company will release earnings for the second quarter on July 17.

Loch Harris, Inc Announces
Launch of EM-1 Explosive Detection Technology

Austin, Texas - June 28, 2001---Loch Harris, Inc. (OTC: LOCH) announced
that in late March 2001 a three-person team representing Loch Harris
conducted a third-party Quality Assurance mine detection sweep of a
construction site on Kinmen Island off the coast of mainland China for
the Taiwan Power Company (Taipower).  The primary mine clearing
operation was conducted by BACTEC International Limited over one month
before Loch Harris arrived on site.  The Loch Harris Team used the EM-1
to conduct the sweep.  The EM-1 is the first generation mobile,
explosive detection device developed from Loch Harris' ELF technology.
The EM-1 was developed by a team of engineers and scientists spearheaded
by Dr. Wade Poteet and Tim Shriver.

The EM-1 (an explosives detection process) was selected for the
third-party QA sweep because it uses a different technology than that
used in the primary clearing efforts (primarily a metal detection
process).  This redundancy of effort and diversity of technology was
intended to provide Taipower additional assurance of the effectiveness
of the primary sweep efforts.  The area of work was approximately 250
meters long and 60 meters wide with a predominantly sandy soil leading
down to a substantial tidal beach zone.

During its primary clearing operations, BACTEC identified and cleared
over 170 mines and several unexploded ordnances (UXOs).  The mines were
very old, had metallic cases and used TNT as the primary explosive.  The
explosives uncovered in the primary clearing operations were all removed
by BACTEC for later disposal.  Loch Harris coordinated with and received
excellent support from BACTEC.

The Loch Harris Team consisted of Malcolm Philips, Tim Shriver and one
EM-1 operator.  Dr. Wade Poteet from his offices in Tucson, Arizona
provided technical support. The Loch Harris Team swept 20 areas (ranging
in size from one square meter to sixteen square meters) selected in
conjunction with Taipower.  The areas selected were biased to the
general areas where mines had been previously found and where future
excavation was planned.

The EM-1 identified areas where evidence of explosives or iron was
present.  Thirteen sites (six of which were located in one area) were
identified by the EM-1 as requiring further analysis to clear explosive
signatures - all were later understood to be areas where mines or one of
the UXOs had been located and removed.  In one location, the EM-1
tracked the explosive signature down about 1.5 meters before receiving
the "clean" signal.  Afterwards the Team was told that a 110-pound bomb
had been found at that location.

The results of the Team's QA effort provided Taipower with further
assurance of the effectiveness of the primary sweep.  Taipower monitored
the Team's activities and was provided with a verbal report when the
Team left the site.

After returning from Taiwan, the Loch Harris Team analyzed the raw data
from the QA sweep effort, conducted confirmatory tests of the equipment
and configurations used and on June 26, 2001 filed a written report with
Taipower to close out the project.  (A copy of the final report is
available on the Loch Harris Web Site.)  The Team was pleased with the
performance of the EM-1 and with the logistical support received from
the entire Loch Harris organization.

Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995: The statements which are not historical facts contained in this
press release are forward-looking statements that involve certain risks

Diversinet, Wireless Solutions, and Odigo Develop New Service
Connecting 2-Way SMS With Instant Messaging

TORONTO, Jun 27, 2001 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Diversinet Corp.,
(NASDAQ:DVNT), a leading provider of m-commerce security
infrastructure solutions, together with Odigo, Inc., the leading
provider of instant messaging and presence solutions to wireless
carriers, Telcos, ISPs, and portals worldwide, and Wireless
Solutions, part of Gruppo Dada and one of Italy's leading wireless
applications developers and service providers, have reached a global
partnership agreement to develop a messaging service that securely
connects wireless and desktop instant messaging platforms.
The three organizations will co-develop and co-market a new "Mobile
SMS - Instant Messaging Gateway" to support secure, 2-way, instant
messaging between a carrier's Short Message Service (SMS) and
multiple instant messaging (IM) networks. The new service will allow
end users to send and receive secure messages to and from enabled
mobile devices using Odigo's IM service and other major instant
messaging networks over Wireless Solutions' SMS Gateway.

"We see a promising business opportunity in secure wireless instant
messaging, both in the consumer and corporate environments," said
Marco Argenti, CEO of Wireless Solutions. "We are excited to partner
with a market leader like Odigo, as well as to expand our existing
relationship with Diversinet. Dada was the first company to introduce
Odigo's web based IM in Italy; this co-development and co-marketing
agreement strengthens the relationship between our companies and
opens up great opportunities in the international market."

Over the past two years, instant messaging has been adopted by
millions of users for both consumer and professional use. Today,
there are over 15 billion SMS and over 30 billion Internet instant
messages sent monthly.

"Wireless messaging will be a tremendous growth market for carriers,
particularly as messaging is integrated between wireless devices, the
desktop, the television and beyond," stated Micha Macover, Odigo
CEO. "We are extremely impressed with the technology of both
Diversinet and Wireless Solutions, as well as their collective vision
as we develop the products to grow instant messaging beyond the
desktop."

One issue that has hindered adoption of IM, particularly among
enterprises, has been security concerns, as typical IM software can
expose data to eavesdroppers and be susceptible to viruses. By
implementing Diversinet's wireless security infrastructure, the
Mobile SMS - Instant Messaging Gateway protects data transfer and
protects against the delivery of malicious code.

"Odigo and Wireless Solutions have recognized that interoperability
and strong security are necessary for advancing wireless instant
messaging to next-generation mobile messaging: enterprise messaging,"
said Nagy Moustafa, President and CEO of Diversinet. "User
authentication and secure message transfers provide the foundation
for using instant messaging as a valuable corporate tool."

The Mobile SMS - Instant Messaging Gateway will be made available to
carriers in Q3 2001.

About Odigo, Inc.

Odigo, Inc. is the leading provider of Instant Messaging and Presence
Solutions to wireless carriers, Telcos, ISPs, and portals worldwide.
Odigo's services include developing private-label IM clients, hosting
IM and Presence services and installing complete IM and Presence
solutions. Odigo, founded in 1998, is a U.S. based company with
headquarters in New York City.

All Odigo IM Solutions are based on the company's Open Instant
Messaging Platform, which enables the most interoperable, robust and
intuitive Instant Messaging services extensible to any Internet-
enabled device. Over 140 companies have licensed Odigo's IM
Solutions, including British Telecom, Austria Telecom, Hungary
Telecom, Prodigy, StarMedia, Netease, DreamNet (of NTT DoCoMo) and

Mercedes Walton, President and Chief Operating Officer of Applied Digital
Solutions, Releases Statement Regarding Heavy Volume and Selling Pressure

PALM BEACH, Fla., Jun 15, 2001 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Applied Digital Solutions,
Inc. (NASDAQ: ADSX), a leader in information technology and solutions, today
released a statement by Mercedes Walton, President and COO, regarding the
unusually heavy volume and intense pressure on the Company's common stock.
In a prepared statement, Ms. Walton offered her thoughts: "It is extremely
unfortunate that at a time when our loyal shareholders should be enjoying
the benefits of recent positive events and developments within the Company
that we should have such tremendous pressure leveled against our stock. In
our estimation, the recent S-3 registration statement, made effective by the
SEC on Monday, June 11, 2001 is the primary root of the selling. Clearly,
certain selling shareholders within that registration statement do not share
the same long-term vision of Applied Digital and have opted to liquidate and
move on to other opportunities. This may well have been exacerbated by the
very lengthy registration process of almost eight months."

Ms. Walton concluded: "Our efforts to build shareholder value have
intensified and we are confident that we are truly on the cusp of delivering
to expectations. In our opinion, the current selling pressure is not
reflective of what we believe is the long-term potential of the Company. My
executive staff and I are committed to the success of Applied Digital
Solutions."

Motorola reaffirms commitment to Proxim standard

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 11 (Reuters) - Wireless technology firm
Motorola Inc. (NYSE:MOT - news) reaffirmed Monday its commitment to
HomeRF, the wireless data networking standard backed by networking
equipment maker Proxim Inc. (NasdaqNM:PROX - news), following concern
that its loyalty may have been wavering.

Motorola and Proxim said they extended a deal for Motorola to
continue to embed Proxim's HomeRF technology into its cable modems
and set-top boxes.

The companies made the announcement amid speculation that Motorola
would stop backing HomeRF wireless broadband technology and switch to
802.11b or Wi-Fi technology, which is based on a competing faster
standard.

``This announcement signals the ongoing commitment of both companies
to developing HomeRF-based products,'' the companies said in the news
release.

In March, Intel Corp. (NasdaqNM:INTC - news) switched its allegiance
for home networking equipment standards to Wi-Fi, a consortium backed
by Cisco Systems Inc. (NasdaqNM:CSCO - news), Agere Systems Inc.
(NYSE:AGRa - news) and others.

Instinet IPO Raises $464 Million, More Than Expected


London, May 18 (Bloomberg) -- Instinet Group LLC raised $464 million
in an initial share sale, more than the company expected, as
investors bet the biggest automated stock-trading network will
maintain its leadi ng position as competition increases.

The New York-based unit of Reuters Group Plc sold 32 million new
common shares at $14.50 each, raising 16 percent more than expected
and valuing the company at $3.5 billion, Reuters said in a statement.

Instinet is an electronic exchange for trading stocks and bonds. The
company's profit rose 35 percent in the fourth quarter from the
year-earlier period and made up about 26 percent of Reuters' operating
profit last year, Reuters said. The company is facing increased
competition from eight other electronic exchanges, known as ECNs.

(ADSX) Applied Digital Solutions Announces
First Quarter Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2001

     Business Editors/High Tech Writers

     PALM BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 15, 2001--

    Revenues and EBITDA from continuing operations increased by $24.6
    million or 107% and $500,000 or 23%, respectively; SG&A costs, as
     a percentage of revenue, decreased by 24% over same period 2000

    Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADSX), a leader in
information technology and solutions, today announced the first
quarter results from continuing operations for the three months ended
March 31, 2001.
    Applied Digital Solutions posted a loss of $(11.39) million, or
$(.13) per share, on revenues of $47.4 versus a loss of $(3.2) million
or $(.06) per share, on revenues of $22.8 million for the same period
2000. Continuing operations recorded an EBITDA of $(1.7) million
versus $(2.2) million, an improvement of $500,000 or 23% over the same
period 2000.
    In a statement, Mercedes Walton, President and COO of Applied
Digital Solutions, commented on the results: "The first quarter of
2001 was an extremely intense and exciting time for us. Translating 90
days worth of business into just a few words is difficult, at best. In
addition to an aggressive focus on the day-to-day business of Applied
Digital, we have been moving ahead with strategic directions charted
out at the end of 2000 to create sustained value. One quarter into the
year, we are pleased to share our early successes and optimism for the
remainder of the year."

    Ms. Walton expanded on various key points.

Financial Performance:
    "Although the overall economic environment, particularly in the
retail and technology sectors, had an effect on sales during the first
quarter, the fiscal vigilance that has become the model of our
enterprise resulted in EBITDA numbers that were on target with our
internal budget projections. In spite of our first quarter loss,
Applied Digital remains in full compliance with the covenants of our
credit facility. The 24% decrease in our SG&A as a percentage of
revenue positions us for improved margins going forward. Moreover, we
saw a trend toward stronger sales in the latter half of the first
quarter. Applied Digital is on target to return to positive EBITDA by
the fourth quarter of 2001."

Digital Angel:
    "The first quarter of 2001 witnessed a number of very positive
developments for Digital Angel and the Advanced Wireless Group. We are
very proud of our Best of Show designation at the Internet World
Wireless Show in February. The registration website has yielded great
amounts of information regarding desired features and functions for
Digital Angel's first delivery run. Additionally, we are actively
negotiating partnerships for investment, distribution, R&D and
manufacturing in preparation for our October, 2001 delivery of the
first Digital Angel products."

Discontinued Operations:
    "Of the seven companies identified as 'discontinued operations',
three have been sold or have transactions pending that should close
prior to the end of June. Each of these transactions will have been at
a premium to their value after the write-downs of fourth quarter 2000.
We are encouraged by these early successes and are actively pursuing
opportunities to sell the remaining companies. The largest of the
discontinued operations, Intellesale, currently has several
prospective buyers due to its refocused business model and return to
financial viability."

    Ms. Walton concluded: "We are encouraged by the results from the
first quarter, but we remain steadfast in our commitment to accelerate
shareholder value. The increased revenue and EBITDA, demonstrated cost
reductions and the variety of negotiations to which Digital Angel is a
party are all important first steps, but we will not be satisfied
until stellar results are achieved."

Motorola Receives Largest Monetary Contracts For China Unicom's
Nationwide CDMA Infrastructure Network Deals Total $407 Million For
11 Provinces, Including Beijing
Date(s):  5/15/01 8:11:00 AM


ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill., May 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Motorola's (NYSE:
MOT) Global Telecom Solutions Sector (GTSS) has been awarded
contracts totaling $407 million with China United
Telecommunications Corp. (China Unicom) to provide 800 MHz Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA) network infrastructure in 11
provinces, including the capital of Beijing. The combined value of
the contracts is the largest awarded to a single infrastructure
vendor.

Motorola's joint venture in Hangzhou and partners Guangzhou
Jinpeng Group Company Limited and China Eastern Communications
Company Limited were awarded the highest financial value of the
nationwide CDMA infrastructure business by China Unicom. Besides
Beijing, Motorola will provide infrastructure in Guangdong,
Jiangsu, Fujian, Hebei, Jilin, Shanxi, Jiangxi, Guangxi, Xinjiang
and Gansu. The total Motorola-supplied network's capacity will be
about 4 million subscribers.

Installation of Motorola's systems, including SC4812T(TM) base
stations is scheduled to begin in July, and commercial CDMA
digital services are expected to be available in the fourth
quarter of 2001.

This is the first CDMA contract between the two companies,
however, Motorola has supplied China Unicom with state-of-the-art
Global Systems for Mobile Communications (GSM) digital cellular
network systems solutions and equipment for the last seven years.
Motorola has been the largest mobile wireless system supplier to
China Unicom since 1995.

"Our cooperation with China Unicom has been very successful over
the past seven years. We have established a win-win partnership
based on trust and mutual benefit," said Ruey Bin Kao, Motorola
vice president and general manager of the China Telecom Carrier
Solutions Group. "Motorola has a strong and rich history in China,
dating back to 1967. Motorola was chosen to supply China's first
cellular system to operate in the 900 MHz band in 1986, and we
have supplied network infrastructure throughout this vast
country," Kao added.

"The CDMA infrastructure, that we will be installing, lays the
groundwork for China Unicom's plan to migrate to cdma2000 1x
networks in 2002," said Simon Leung, Motorola corporate vice
president and general manager of GTSS's Asia-Pacific Region.

China Unicom, the mainland's second largest telecom firm, invited
bids from telecom equipment vendors earlier this year to build its
CDMA network. China Unicom is planning a nationwide network system
capable of supporting a subscriber capacity of 15 million users
this year and expanding it by 2005 to have a nationwide capacity
that supports 60 million subscribers.

About China Unicom China Unicom is a provider of integrated
telecommunications services in China, offering a range of services
including cellular, paging, long distance, data and Internet
services to more than 27 million cellular and 43 million paging
subscribers.

SCHAUMBURG, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 15, 2001--

Government Customers Assured of Ongoing Support

Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) announced today that it is exploring
strategic alternatives, including a potential divestiture, of its
Integrated Information Systems Group (IISG), a Scottsdale,
Arizona-based government communication/information technology
business.

"Motorola's Integrated Information Systems Group is performing
well financially. The Group has important business alliances and a
solid customer base of military, federal and prime contractor
customers with significant growth opportunities in its target
markets," said Motorola president Networks Sector, Ed Breen.
"Although we are exploring alternatives for this business, we
remain committed to providing commercial technologies to
government customers as part of our overall commercial market
focus."

About IISG

IISG features three business portfolios with synergistic charters
supporting the Communications Technology/Information Technology
(CT/IT) needs of military, government and commercial customers.
The Group's business offerings include technologies, products and
systems for secure information, aerospace communication,
information assurance, situational awareness and integrated
communication. In addition to the Scottsdale headquarters, IISG
has facilities in Huntsville, Alabama, Orlando, Florida and
Columbia, Maryland, as well as other locations close to customer
centers of operation. IISG employs approximately 2800 people.

"IISG is positioned to take advantage of significant growth
opportunities and we intend to continue to be a leader in the
CT/IT government marketplace," said Mark Fried, corporate vice
president and general manager of IISG. "We believe we have the
right solutions, processes and people in place to support this
value proposition. As we evaluate strategic alternatives for IISG,
the management team and staff will continue to focus on IISG's
core CT/IT government business to the benefit of customers."

IISG has long-term, current government contracts with the U.S.
Department of Defense, other government agencies and international
ministries of defense that rely on highly-integrated,
communication and information assurance products, systems,
software and solutions. "As communication and information
technologies converge we are poised to build on our heritage of
leadership in delivering intelligence needed for critical
decision-making," Fried said.

"We expect our businesses will continue to operate much as they do
currently. We want our customers and suppliers to know we are
focused on delivering on current commitments even as we build
toward future successes. We want our fellow employees to
understand that 'constant respect for people' will continue to be
a key belief, and we want our neighbors in the community to be
assured that they can count on us to remain a responsible, caring
corporate citizen," explained Fried
