Tether Now Available at BlackBerry's AppWorld

The Maker of the TetherBerry Adopts the Name Tether in Preparation for its Move Into New Market Segments

HALIFAX, Canada, February 12 - Tether has recently announced that its landmark application, which allows
laptop-users high-speed, affordable Internet access via their smartphones, is
now available at BlackBerry(R) App World(TM).

The announcement comes as the company, founded in March 2009 as
TetherBerry, changes its main product brand name to reflect its intention to
expand into new market segments, including Windows Mobile, iPhone and
Android.

"More than 60,000 customers in 114 countries use Tether to connect their
laptops to their smartphones, ensuring a fast and affordable tethering option
anywhere they have cellphone coverage," said Tim Burke, Tether's Director of
Development. "Now that we're available at AppWorld, it will be easier than
ever for BlackBerry users to access our service."

As well as recently releasing a simpler user interface, Tether has now
begun beta testing its Android version and has launched a new version of
Tether that uses USB and Bluetooth.

TetherBerry was launched in March, 2009, as a means of allowing people
fast, affordable Internet access almost anywhere by letting them work on
their laptop via their BlackBerry's data plan. Within days, the product was
selling around the world, drawing praise from such tech blogs as the New York
Times' Gadgetwise and CrackBerry.
