IRVINE, CA and THE HAGUE, NETHERLANDS--(MARKET WIRE)--Jul 25, 2005 -- Stream Theory, Inc., a division of Tadpole Technology plc (London:TAD.L - News), together with its Dutch channel partner StreamTech B.V., has licensed the patented StreamFlow(TM) games-on-demand platform to cable giant Essent Kabelcom for the purpose of delivering PC games to their @Home network subscribers throughout the Netherlands. Initially subscribers will enjoy free trials of the on-demand games service, which will become commercially available early next year. A variety of genres and popular games, such as Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness by Eidos Interactive and Colin McRae Rally 2004 by Codemasters, will be offered, with additional titles to be constantly added.
The StreamFlow platform takes over where CD's and downloads fall short. Gamers want the latest hits and popular favorites quickly and without the hassle of searching in stores for CD's or waiting for long downloads to complete, ultimately installing them on their PC's. Game publishers want to both extend their game distribution reach and fight CD piracy. Streaming, with shorter downloads and no installation, supports these goals.

"The on-demand games market is growing very rapidly throughout the Netherlands and Europe. Streaming is the only technology that can be assured to keep up with consumer demand," said Jimmy van der Have, President of StreamTech. "The StreamFlow platform is the industry standard for providing the best customer gameplay experience, security for game developers and publishers, and ease of use for broadband Internet service providers. We are honored to be a partner with Essent Kabelcom to bring this entertaining and interactive experience to @Home subscribers."

Good news but how much money does Tad get?

one of these days tad will come good. i just hope its in my lifetime.

i have a bad feeling as a very long term tad fan ( and i must be one of a few that has made a profit over the years ).

there are so many burnt fingers out there that even a " tad takes over microsoft" will be received with a lukewarm response

some interesting posts over the last few days while i've been away. nice to see some reasoned discussion along with some decent news.

could this deal be worth as much as the microsoft streaming deal for $100K ?

Snappy - I am in denial about Tad at present (see post 1680) and have therefore added a further 5 noughts to your suggested profit figure. I feel so liberated at present - I wonder whether my new medication is in some way contributing to my feelings of euphoria about Tad?

Rumours of a bid coming my way!!!!
Anyone else heard this, I stress its only a very unsubstatiated rumour.

ML - in the politest way possible, please go away. Unsubstantiated rumours are the bane of this and many other BBs. Anyone can start a rumour but with Tad it soon becomes "fact" as the remaining Tadders cling to any faint hope. I was enjoying my period of denial over Tad but your message shook me out of my euphoria - you now owe me a pint.

Snappy - I am very chilled (obviously my message gave a different impression although I did use the word "polite").

ML - Cardiff is actually not far away from where I live but I fly to Sweden this Friday (and then onwards to Finland & Russia) so must reluctantly decline your kind invitation this time.

rumour or not, the share does not appear to be responding to normal market forces.

Snappy

As RG would say, LOL!!!!

snappy

post 1690, good one, LOL

Surprised no-one has commented on the slowly ascending sp. Clearly Tad can make you very rich. For example, if you had bought 40,000,000 shares on July 1st you could now offload them for a 1m profit. What more can you ask. Surely this is why the true Tad faithful say that this share could make you a millionaire (although you need to be one already to capitalize - an interesting conundrum).

Just thought that I should share this interesting fact with everybody - if there IS anybody out there?!

Carlsbad, CA, August 9, 2005: EDSA Micro Corporation (EDSA), a leading developer of advanced electrical power system analysis and simulation technology, has selected the Geospatial Solutions Division of Tadpole Technology to provide services for the integration of its Power Flow and Short Circuit analysis engines with ESRIs ArcGIS software.

The integration, performed by Tadpole Technology under contract by EDSA, allows the EDSA simulation engines to communicate directly with ArcGIS to perform power flow and short circuit analysis, as well as populate the GIS with the calculated results. A key feature of the integration is support for various power system components such as generators, capacitors/inductors, transformers, switches/fuses, cable/overhead lines and substations lines.

As a result of the integration, EDSA will soon release and make available its powerful ArcGIS interface to EDSAs 3-Phase Power Flow and Short Circuit analysis.

EDSA selected Tadpole Technology because of the companys long-standing presence in the GIS community, its reputation for delivering customer-centric geospatial solutions and its proven expertise with ArcGIS. It is expected that this business relationship will extend into the future as the market adopts this new GIS-enabled functionality.

The EDSA Advanced Power Flow engine is a powerful software tool designed to determine system voltages and power flows. The EDSA Advanced Short Circuit engine is used to calculate different types of fault currents given system impedances, loads and generations.

The EDSA GIS interface stores the analysis results in a geodatabase, allowing standard ArcMap tools to be used to inspect the results graphically and in tabular form.

"With the integration of these products, organizations can integrate engineering analysis with GIS thus leveraging investments in technology," said Adib Nasle, President, EDSA.
