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.

There must be some really big buys going through as I haven't even seen any largish delayed trades yet.

Tiger Telematics(R) Achieve SIMbiosis With Vodafone UK



LONDON, March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

- Vodafone UK to Supply Pre-Pay SIMs and Network Access for Gizmondo(TM)

Gizmondo Europe Ltd, subsidiary of Jacksonville, Florida-based Tiger Telematics Inc (OTC: TGTL; OTC: TGTL.PK), announced a deal today that will package the Gizmondo multi-entertainment console in the UK with a pre-pay SIM card from Vodafone and revenue share agreement.

Gizmondo users will be able to send text messages on pre-pay bundles, as well as using their handheld device for sending and receiving email from their POP3/Imap accounts via a GPRS connection. The Vodafone network covers 99% of the population in the UK.

Vodafone will also be providing a URL to allow delivery of the SmartAdds(TM) system through to the customer at no cost to them. SmartAdds(TM) is a highly targeted form of digital marketing that, once the customer is registered, identifies its audience by gender, age, and location, and can then deliver an 'added value' advertisement directly into the hands of the end user.

Carl Freer, Managing Director, Gizmondo, says: "We're delighted to offer the Gizmondo user access to the Vodafone mobile communications network in the UK. The contract-free pre-pay SIM is there to open up the Gizmondo to a massive range of communication and exciting GPS features, without an additional contract. The strength and infrastructure of the Vodafone network, and its customer commitment as a whole, will be an invaluable asset."

Nick Read, Chief Commercial Officer, Vodafone UK commented "We look forward to developing our working relationship with Gizmondo and Tiger Telematics, and will watch the forthcoming developments with interest."

Notes to Editors:

1) The Gizmondo uses the pre-pay SIM in all aspects of the functionality. When the device is registered for the first time, login details are sent back to the user via SMS which will allow them to set up an account on a secure website, giving access to extended functions.

2) These functions include web tracking and location-based services via GPRS like, "Where am I" and "Find my Nearest".

3) Bill-payers can upgrade to a Guardian Account that will allow the user to input up to four mobile telephone numbers, so that if the panic button is held for 3.5 seconds an alert is sent via SMS containing the last GPS location of the Gizmondo.

4) The Guardian Account also gives the bill-payer access to additional tracking functionality, geofencing, and a secure server which can report the location of a device to a registered mobile telephone number via SMS.

5) All tracking functionality is entirely opt in/opt out by the user.

6) The GPRS connectivity can also be used for viewing and downloading wallpapers, alert tones, ring tones, and other mobile content,

The Gizmondo is powered by Microsoft Windows CE advanced real-time operating system, boasting 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, picture messages, 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 in retail stores from 19th March 2005 in the UK, and in North American and Continental Europe markets from Spring 2005.

Tiger Telematics'(R) Begin Retailing First Windows-Powered Games and Multi-media Handheld in London



LONDON, March 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

- Windows CE Based multi-entertainment device goes on sale with the opening of a flagship store in London's busy West End

Gizmondo Europe Ltd, subsidiary of Jacksonville, Florida-based Tiger Telematics Inc. (OTC:TGTL , OTC:TGTL.PK), this weekend begins retailing the Microsoft Windows CE based Gizmondo multi-entertainment device and opening of its flagship store.

At the heart of the Gizmondo is the Windows CE.NET operating system and Windows Media Player. This, coupled with a Samsung ARM9 400MHz processor, 64MB onboard memory, limitless storage via SD card, and a 128-bit NVIDIA GoForce 3D 4500 graphics accelerator, makes it the most powerful mobile entertainment and handheld gaming devices available.

The compact handheld device delivers an armory of features, which include gaming, music and video playback, SMS, picture messaging, email, a camera, and Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) hardware.

One of the many things that make this pocket-sized device unique is the GPS functionality. As well as offering location-based services, the Gizmondo will be able to perform satellite navigation, permissions-based tracking, geofencing, and location broadcasting to mobile telephones. But one of the most significant advances affects the mobile gaming genre; GPS functionality is already being developed into games to make the users' location in relation to other gamers and their environment an actual game element.

The Gizmondo flagship store at 175 Regent Street, London, is the perfect location to showcase the Microsoft software in action. Three games titles have already been announced for the Gizmondo from Microsoft Games Studios, with further announcements expected later in the year.

Carl Freer, Managing Director, Gizmondo, says: "We've used best-in-field components in every aspect of the design, and we believe the Gizmondo is taking an ambassadorial role in showing the versatility and robust nature of the Windows software. Essentially it is allowing us to spearhead the onset of digital-convergent devices. We enjoy an extremely close working relationship with Microsoft, their entire Windows Embedded team has been thoroughly supportive throughout this process, and we welcome their continued backing as we turn our attention to global markets with the Gizmondo."

Doug Follett, European Partner Manager in Microsoft's Device Solutions Group, says: "The Gizmondo is an impressive device and we've been following its development intently. It epitomizes digital convergence through the use of Microsoft Embedded technology, delivering a breakthrough in device integration and a platform for a multitude of incremental services."

The Gizmondo device and its games are in retail stores from 19th March 2005 in the UK, and in North American and Continental Europe markets from Spring 2005

Shares predicted to move next week. Lets hope so:

Gizmondo Launches - And It's More Than Just a Console

You would be forgiven for having missed the launch of Gizmondo in London this morning. All the hype surrounding the Nintendo DS and the Sony PSP has rather overshadowed this quirky British challenger to the portable gaming market.

However, Gizmondo has a trick up its sleeve. Whereas the DS and PSP have bolted a semblance of media center functionality onto a predominantly game-centric device, Gizmondo has run its media center colours proudly up its flag pole and is being marketed as a multi-entertainment device.

The device went on sale this morning from its new store on Londons Regent Street priced at 229.99. It will be launched in the rest of Europe and North America within a few weeks.

At the heart of the Gizmondo is the Windows CE.NET operating system and Windows Media Player. This, coupled with a Samsung ARM9 400MHz processor, 64MB onboard memory, expandable storage via SD card, and a 128-bit NVIDIA GoForce 3D 4500 graphics accelerator, makes it a powerful mobile entertainment and handheld gaming prospect.

Gizmondos range of features include gaming, music and video playback, SMS, picture messaging, email, a camera, and Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) hardware.

One of the many things that make this pocket-sized device unique is the
GPS functionality. As well as offering location-based services, the Gizmondo will be able to perform satellite navigation, permissions-based tracking, geofencing, and location broadcasting to mobile telephones. But one of the most significant advances affects the mobile gaming genre; GPS functionality is already being developed into games to make the users' location in relation to other gamers and their environment an actual game element.

Carl Freer, Managing Director, Gizmondo, says: "We've used best-in-field components in every aspect of the design, and we believe the Gizmondo is taking an ambassadorial role in showing the versatility and robust nature of the Windows software. Essentially it is allowing us to spearhead the onset of digital-convergent devices. We enjoy an extremely close working relationship with Microsoft, their entire Windows Embedded team has been thoroughly supportive throughout this process, and we welcome their continued backing as we turn our attention to global markets with the Gizmondo."

As interested as we are in the media center functions of Gizmondo, its the quality of the game by which it will live or die and here Gizmondo has the backing of Microsoft which is preparing three titles. The complete list of announced games is:

Angel Fish
Chicane
City
Colors
Conflict: Desert Storm II
Conflict: Vietnam
Fallen Kingdoms
Furious Phil
Interstellar Flames 2
Johnny Whatever
Milo and the Rainbow Nasties
Momma Can I Mow the Lawn?
Richard Burns Rally
Speedgun Stadium
Sticky Balls
Stuntcar Extreme
Super Drop Mania
The Great Escape
Trailblazer

Well bring you more on Gizmondo when we get our hands on one.

A stellar start for Gizmondo

The Gizmondo flagship store got off to a flying start on 19 March 2005. Not only was it the site of one of the most start-studded press conferences in London's west end, featuring the likes of Lennox Lewis, Busta Rhymes, Pharrell Williams, Clipse, Dannii Minogue and Verne Troyer, aka Mini Me, the shop shifted at least 800 Gizmondo units on a hectic day.

To celebrate this success, Gizmondo threw a party at Piccadilly's Park Lane Hotel. Kiss FM and MTV covered the event, hosted by movie star Tom Green and Dannii Minogue. The night drew a host of celebrities, including footballers, pop stars, actors and models who, with the rest of the invited guests, witnessed performances by Sting, Jamiroquai, Pharrell Williams with Clipse, and, of course, Busta Rhymes, who headlined the night. All in all, it was an auspicious launch.

Not a bad start but this thing needs more games,fast!

would have thought it would be higher given the launch? no RNS out yet?

Tiger on the way back. Good volume +4% so far.

any idea why the drop today seems strange

No logical explanation. Tiger up $1.80.

This is a piss take by the MM and unwarranted, but if it pressurises people to sell you can see why they do it.

tb - true .. now they have had their jolly jape.. praps they can get back to some serious buying - low enuff again? ..lets see how many 250/500k+ buys go thro in next few days

Going like hot cakes but why not the sp?





LONDON, March 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

- Star-studded store opening and A-list launch party delights Londoners

Gizmondo Europe Ltd, subsidiary of Jacksonville, Florida-based Tiger Telematics Inc. (OTC:TGTL , OTC:TGTL.PK), today heralded the weekend's high street launch of the Gizmondo handheld multi-entertainment device as a big success, and a positive start to its ongoing campaign to drive awareness of the host of features and functionality that the device brings to consumers.

The new handheld went on sale in the UK for the first time, with the champagne opening of the Gizmondo flagship store at 175 Regent Street on Saturday 19th amidst the glitz and glamour of A-list attendees.

Regent Street came to a near standstill as over 2000 fans swarmed the store to see Pharrell Williams, Dannii Minogue, Verne Troyer, Busta Rhymes and Lennox Lewis pop by the shop on it's opening day, and to get their hands on the first Gizmondos. The store's allocation of units was completely gone before the doors were finally shut again at 6pm to prepare for the evening event.

Tiger Telematics' CEO, Michael Carrender, addressed the gathered crowds at the store opening saying, "The handheld entertainment sector is an enormously exciting place to be right now, and we are delighted to be part of the revolution that it is undergoing. We believe that with the Gizmondo we have brought a strong player in the market to stand alongside more established brands, and this is just the beginning for us. We have some great content in the pipeline and enhancements to our already wide range of features that will secure our place as the only true multi-functional entertainment device on the market today."

The Gizmondo launch party later that evening at Piccadilly's Park Lane Hotel was one of the most star-studded events of the year. With performances from Sting, Jamiroquai, Pharrell Williams, Clipse and Busta Rhymes, the VIP guest list was overwhelmed with an A-list line up hosted by US comedian, Tom Green, and Aussie babe favourite, Dannii Minogue. In addition to over 2000 Gizmondo fans, the who's who of London's trend-setting fashion, music and film scenes converged and carried the party into the small hours of the morning.

Carl Freer, Co-founder and Managing Director of Gizmondo, says: "The event was more than a marketing exercise. We wanted it to be a time stamp indelibly marking Gizmondo's high street launch." He added, "The store has been a huge success. Turnout was amazing and we were completely cleared of stock we'd expected to last beyond the weekend. From here we have a very aggressive retail rollout campaign planned, and will be making more announcements over the coming weeks."

Photos of the event can be found at the Gizmondo website at www.gizmondo.com/175regentstreet/.

The Gizmondo device and its games are in retail stores now in the UK, and in North American and Continental Europe markets from Spring 2005.
