WARTHOG PLC
DISPOSAL OF SUBSIDIARIES

The board of Warthog plc (the 'Company') announces that it has today completed
the sale of all of the Company's subsidiaries to Tiger Telematics, Inc ('TGTL')
together with the transfer to TGTL of certain intra-group indebtedness due to
the Company. The total consideration including assumed indebtedness is $8.11
million of which $1,113,000 will be paid in cash and $7 million satisfied by way
of an allotment of 497,866 shares of common stock in TGTL at $14.06 per share,
being the average mid market closing price of a TGTL common share over the 14
days preceding completion. These shares are restricted stock and as such can
only be traded on or after the first anniversary of completion (the
'Anniversary') in accordance with U.S. securities laws. Up to the Anniversary,
these shares will be held in escrow against any claim arising under certain
warranties, tax indemnities and completion account net asset value adjustments
set out in the sale and purchase agreement. 150,000 of the cash consideration
will also be held in escrow until the Anniversary, pending specific warranties.
The Company has waived the balance of all other amounts due to it by its former
subsidiaries.

Upon completion of the transaction, the executive directors Ashley Hall, Steven
Law and Simon Elms together with one other remaining employee of the Company
will transfer employment to TGTL leaving Ian Templeton FCA and David Robinson as
non-executive Directors of the Company. The Company has also undertaken to
change its name and will be calling an EGM to effect such a change in due course
and will at that time update shareholders further.

The board of Warthog plc has sought to complete this transaction as rapidly as
possible (and therefore did not elect to seek shareholder approval) because the
group has continued to face difficult trading conditions within the games
development industry, as reported in the Company's Final Results on 28 September
2004, which has put the group under ongoing financial pressure. In addition,
TGTL required the transaction to be consummated as expeditiously as possible, in
conjunction with the commencement of shipping of its Gizmondo product into the
UK. The transaction leaves the Company having discharged substantially all of
its liabilities and with a valuable shareholding in TGTL which will be capable
of realisation in a year's time. The realisable value of this shareholding
depends entirely upon the commercial success of TGTL and the performance of the
TGTL shares on the financial market.

The board considers, in conjunction with its advisers, that this transaction
represents the best available outcome for the Company and its shareholders.

Tiger Telematics, Inc is listed on the 'NASDAQ Other OTC Market' under symbol
'TGTL'. TGTL's publicly stated intention is to apply for a listing on the
'NASDAQ National Market' in December 2004. TGTL is a designer, developer and
marketer of mobile telematics systems and services that combine global GPS
functions and voice recognition technology to locate and track vehicles and
people down to street level in countries throughout the world. The systems are
designed to operate on GPS and are currently being marketed to GSM current and
potential subscribers, primarily by the company's United Kingdom based
subsidiary, Gizmondo Europe Limited ('GEL'). GEL is a wholly owned subsidiary of
TGTL and is the maker of the Gizmondo, a next-generation mobile entertainment
device which includes games, built-in music, video, messaging and picture
functions and GPS. On 29 October, TGTL began shipping its first generation
product as part of a strategic retail roll out in the UK.

The transaction gives GEL access to existing games content and porting
technology to enable the transfer of titles developed for use on other platforms
on to the Gizmondo handheld device. Warthog plc shareholders will therefore
benefit from continued investment in TGTL as it seeks to exploit the games
content and technical capabilities that the Company has developed over the past
few years.

As previously announced on 12 October 2004, GEL is interested in 8.62 per cent.
of the Company's current total issued ordinary share capital.

About the Gizmondo device
The Gizmondo is powered by a Microsoft Windows CE.net platform, boasts a
2.8-inch TFT colour screen with a Samsung ARM9 400Mhz processor and incorporates
the GoForce 3D 4500 Nvidia graphics accelerator. It provides cutting-edge
gaming, multimedia messaging, an MP3 music player, MPEG4 movie playing
capability, a digital camera and a GPRS network link to allow wide-area network
gaming. Additionally, it contains a GPS chip for location based services, is
equipped with Bluetooth for use in multi-player gaming and accepts MMC card
accessories.

The Gizmondo device and its games are due for launch in the UK in the fourth
quarter 2004 and in North American markets from the first quarter 2005.

DEALERS believe that Warthog, 0.11p dearer, could be a good recovery punt. More than 52m shares in the computer games developer changed hands on hopes that the worst is over. Tiger Telematics, a leading European games console maker grabbed it by the tusks in October when it bought its subsidaries, intellectual properties and assests. In return Warhog acquired a stake in TT which is now worth at least 3p per share.

Willfagg.
I sent a couple of e-mails to Joe Martens on the same subject. Haven't had a reply. Don't suppose I will. Clearly a concern but it is hard to imagine it signing agreements without having some confidence in the manufacturing/supply chain.

So thats agreements for 1,320,000 gizmondo units at ? price and ? profit

So positive news

LONDON (AFX) - Solid progress was notched up by Warthog, 0.23 ahead at 2.05 pence, with dealers putting recent strength in the stock down to several distribution deals announced by rumoured bid target Tiger Telematics, in which Warthog has a stake.

M100.
Read the article I posted in 477. The trading scenarios are included in that article. Note that this ADDITIONAL 1.3M units exceeds their worse case total sales of less than a million units. Explosive potential, as they mention in the article.

thanks missed this one - so much coming through, interesting - I have a sell order holding for small profit - perhaps I should cancel and change for a buy now

People trade as they feel fit. Personally, don't think it is worth selling at the current price. There will be peaks and troughs but trend is without doubt up.

Expect a tick up shortly.

Upward trend.

peaks and troughs? welll it was certainly up and down yesterday! generally up though

I would settle for TGTL holding round$30 and WHOG firming at around the 2p level before news of great sales and a 1 share price by Chrisymas!!!!!!!!!!!!!! funny looked out of window and lots of pigs flying today?

does confound reason sometimes - Jan 12, 2005 Pacific goes Gizmondo gaga
http://www.gizmondo.com/news/item.asp?id=174

Has anyone else herd the rumour about a jv in China between Tiger and a state owned manufacturer? The poster on another BB, says the Gizmondo will be made for the Chinese market but would be a downgraded version that wouldn't for example, have the gps/satnav facility owing to inadequate mapping in China.
The rumour is that the jv will announce plans shortly and are forecasting sales
of 30 million units in the first year.The poster does go on to say he knows it
sounds unbelievable but remember where you heard it first.
He also goes on to say that he expects big news of an appointment of a big wig
from Sony to head up the sales of Tiger in the near future.
You never know willfagg perhaps 50p by Christmas! Well its OK to dream I guess.

China will give WHOG a boost if Gizmondo enters China.

Archies, I know research plays an important role but believe so many of our decisions are intuitive , so you have to keep the faith.Consequently 50p BAH!!.....I said a 1 by Xmas( beware of low flying pigs)

A good buy opportunity has developed. Can buy at 1.60. Par value with TGTL is 2.16, so a safe discount given how far the prospects have advanced in recent weeks. Over a million units scheduled to Asia alone in April.

TGTL seem pretty good at issueing staements/updates so I would feel we will know fairly soon how sales are doing.Shares mag comment today seemed flimsy.It says "WHOG currently owns shares in the company(TGTL) worth 6.3 million. It currently cannot trade in these shares and the outlook is somewhat unclear"!
WHOG own TGTL shares valued 6.3 millin and they are able to trade them a year after they acquired them!They are real shares with a real value....whats unclear , or am i being too naive and simplistic?

willfagg - Totally agree with you. Nothing unclear at all. Moreover, if Microsoft do buy out TGTL (only a market rumour, not a certainty) the comitment on WHOG to retain the TGTL shares in escrow for one year may well be dropped. Microsoft could (would ?) buy these shares directly from WHOG at a premium.

The WHOG sp seems pretty well locked in to the TGTL sp at the moment, but we must not forget that this is not the only asset of WHOG. It is already set up as a company with credit references, banking facilities, a large tax credit, etc, and therefore quite attractive as a cash shell for a new company to move into.

To be really pedantic, it is a bit daft quoting the market cap of WHOG in the magazine. This value changes daily - sometimes quite significantly. For example, based only on the TGTL shareholding, the TGTL sp at close of play last night and the /$ rate, the market cap of WHOG at the moment is 7.2m. So I make that a 14% rise in profit since Shares mag came out this morning!

Hardly worth printing since its comment is more than somewhat unclear!
What is pretty clear is that TGTL's share price is going to go up. More a question of timing rather than if.
As it it the Whog price will need to move up 35% to reach parity with the value of its TGTL holding. That looks pretty good to me.
Strange that you couldn't stop the buying when the shares were overbought, the opposite now that they are oversold. Human nature I suppose. Anyhow I have added a few extra 100k. Never could resist a bargain. My garage is witness!

Is the reference to the outlook being somewhat unclear directed at the caveat that TGTL can offset any oddities that crop up from their purchase of the games part of WHOG ? I think there was something about this in the WHOG trading update around Christmas/New Year - might be wrong though.
