Letter to the Shareholders of Calypso Wireless, Inc. From CEO Cristian Turrini HOUSTON, TX--(MARKET WIRE)--Oct 7, 2008 -- The following is a letter issued by Cristian
Turrini, the CEO of Calypso Wireless, Inc. (Other OTC:CLYW.PK - News): To all shareholders of Calypso Wireless, Inc. (Other OTC:CLYW.PK - News), this letter provides an update on significant business activities at the Company. I want to emphasize my intention to facilitate regular communication to Calypso's shareholders through letters that will provide insight on issues and to provide a uniform status report on important activities at the Company. I will focus on two topics in this letter: 1) an update on activities at Calypso Wireless and future business prospects; and 2) plans for the upcoming Annual Shareholder Meeting and proxy motions seeking shareholder approval. Positioning Calypso Wireless, Inc. for the Future Over the past month Calypso Wireless and the people of Houston have had an unforeseen interruption due to Hurricane Ike. The city is up and running again, now it is time to move quickly with respect to the business opportunities of Calypso Wireless. Alessandro Valenti, V.P. of R & D for Calypso, is currently in Europe negotiating a licensing opportunity, which would be the first piece of business. Richard Pattin, President of Calypso, has been in conversations with two companies that have an interest in the "923" patent. "The companies that have expressed an interest are from the telecom space," states Pattin. Calypso Wireless is looking into all possibilities with respect to monetizing its patents. The Board of Directors and Management of Calypso Wireless are pleased with the selection of Williams & Kherkher as counsel for enforcement of the Company's legal rights under its various patents. Prior to the selection of Williams & Kherkher, Calypso Wireless interviewed and evaluated numerous law firms, to secure optimum legal representation for the benefit of its shareholders. Williams & Kherkher's primary focus will be the ASNAP patent with the intent of financial gain for past patent violations and for future license concessions. It is Calypso's belief that the "923" patent is more valuable today than at any time in the past. Leading telecommunication companies around the world have made the move to embrace the fixed-mobile convergence (FMC) strategy, including France Telecom/Orange, T-Mobile US, TeliaSonera, British Telecom and Cincinnati Bell. These matters will be discussed in greater detail at the upcoming shareholders meeting.
