FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

iView Launches iView Media

Quickest, Easiest Way to Manage, Share and Save Your Photos . . . and Your
Videos, Graphics and Music - Available Now for both Windows and Mac-based
Computers

LONDON, April 28, 2003 - iView Multimedia (iView) today announced the
immediate availability of iView Media for Windows- and Mac-based computers.
Designed for a consumer audience, iView Media is based on the company's
award-winning iView MediaPro, which is widely used by photographers,
graphic designers, and other media professionals. iView Media is easy to
use and powerful. It allows users to manage, share and protect their whole
inventory of digital media - including photos, graphics, video and music
clips.

According to InfoTrends Research Group, low end, sub-$1,000 digital cameras
worldwide will reach 51 million units in 2007. In-Stat/MDR predicts that
worldwide portable digital music players will grow to over 36 million. And
by the end of 2003, DVDs will be in more than half of U.S. homes, according
to the DVD Entertainment Group. The rapid rise of these affordable digital
imaging and audio devices is creating unprecedented opportunities for
consumers to capture not only their media favorites, but also the important
moments in their lives.

Find it. Share it.

iView Media permits users to manage photos, music, graphic images, video
and music on their computer hard disks, CDs, servers or the world wide web.
Its efficient, economical design means that it takes little space on a
computer's hard drive. It supports more than 70 different file types from
JPEG to DV to Movies and reads metadata standards such as EXIF, QT and
IPTC. Its friendly, intuitive look and feel makes managing a wide range of
media easy and fun. With iView Media, you can:

-- Easily find photos, movies, sounds and other media
o Organize by searchable tags
o Sort by simple characteristics - not only date, but also event or
location
-- Share photos, movies, sounds and other media with friends and family
o Create slide shows with audio soundtracks
o Instantly play back movies, QTVR and music in any view
o Automatically generate Web galleries of photos and movies
-- Store and protect precious photos, audio, video and other media files
with back-up feature

"iView began by providing professional digital media management solutions
on Macintosh computers when there were none," said Mike Vieyra, chief
executive officer of iView Multimedia Ltd. "We've had many users ask us
both for a Windows version of our software and for a more affordable
entry-level product. With the launch of iView Media on both Windows and
Macintosh we are responding to our users' demands. As we grow, we are
committed to delivering a better, more affordable way of managing, sharing
and storing the sounds and images of the digital lifestyle."
