Yoostar Announces Retailers for Highly Anticipated August Launch

Incredible New Home Entertainment System Available in Multiple Channel- Retailers Starting in August

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Yoostar today announced that the Yoostar(TM) system will be available for purchase on August 24 at Bloomingdales stores nationwide, and at all Best Buy outlets starting September 8. Bloomingdale's will be the only luxury department store to carry the product. The Yoostar system ($169.95 suggested retail price) was introduced to great acclaim at the opening keynote address of the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show.

"We believe Yoostar has the potential to be the single most popular home entertainment item of the holiday season, and beyond," said Patrick Bousquet-Chavanne, President and CEO, Yoostar Entertainment Group. "Both retailers, with their history of being a launching pad for groundbreaking products, will ensure availability wherever our audience will be."

The Yoostar entertainment system allows you to film yourself right into famous movie scenes, where you can perform with, or replace, the original actors.

Yoostar will provide the opportunity for shoppers to experience the Yoostar system live in select Best Buy and Bloomingdale's locations during the month of September. Yoostar "stage directors" will assist users in creating their performances.
