Webdate Mobile Extends Compatibility to 80 Percent of All U.S. Internet-Enabled Phones Members Can Search 2.5 Million Profiles, Photos and Message Potential Partners in Real-Time MIAMI, Jan. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Webdate(TM), one the fastest-growing webdating communities with more than 2.5 million active members, announced today at the Internet Dating Conference in Miami that Webdate Mobile(TM), the company's go-anywhere, flirt-anytime mobile dating service has been expanded to support 19 phones with another 45 to be rolled out through March of this year, representing 80 percent of all data-capable wireless handset models currently being sold in the United States. After a successful launch of Webdate Mobile in 2004 and the release of a downloadable version for Cingular/AT&T Wireless customers using J2ME-enabled phones, Webdate now has expanded its mobile services compatibility to many of the most popular handsets. Webdate Mobile is also available on BREW-enabled wireless phones through U.S. Cellular's easyedge(SM) wireless data service, Cellular One and other regional carriers. As of December, more than 40,000 wireless customers have downloaded Webdate Mobile. Webdate Mobile is powered by the Trilibis mCE(TM), a flexible software engine that delivers a richer user experience to members of online communities extending connectivity and content to virtually any wireless device. Trilibis, a leading provider of Mobile Community Services (MCS) software, completed the development and new-device testing for the Webdate Mobile application this month, including such popular models as the Motorola 'V' series and the LG 'L' series. Said Abe Smilowitz, president and CEO of Webdate, Inc., "Our goal is to extend the same great customer experience that our online members enjoy to virtually anyone in the world who wants the flexibility and privacy of webdating on their wireless phone. Our strategy to support 99 percent of all web-enabled mobile phones is on track, and our partnership with Trilibis will help us get there." Webdate Mobile provides users access to dating profiles, pictures and real-time messaging through their wireless phone. Unlike other mobile dating services, which only provide access to dating profiles of other mobile users, Webdate provides access and the capability to search profiles and pictures of all Webdate.com members, which surpassed 2.5 million last month. Webdate.com adds more than 8,000 new members daily. Webdate Mobile is the only service of its kind that operates on a single database. Other mobile dating services host separate databases for mobile members. Wireless members can't search among non-wireless members and are limited to hundreds of profiles through their wireless phone, versus millions. With Webdate Mobile, all member profiles are available -- anywhere, anytime. Members can learn more about the benefits of availability of Webdate Mobile at http://www.webdatemobile.com/ . Webdate Mobile is available for a flat monthly rate of $2.99 per month.
