LAS
VEGAS, NEVADA, November 13, 2000 -- COMDEX Fall 2000 Show
attendees
looking for a cost-effective way to transform their existing
Web site into highly productive, eye-catching interactive
video streaming sales and information machines should take
the time to visit ImaginOn, Inc. (NASDAQ: IMON) at Booth
S-3735 in the Sands Expo & Convention Center. The industry
leading marketer of turnkey interactive Internet television
systems is demonstrating ImOn.comTV™, a comprehensive solution
that provides everything needed to build and broadcast interactive
video over the Web, including the Web server hardware itself.
"ImOn.comTV
isn't merely an evolution," today said ImaginOn Chief Executive
Officer David Schwartz. "It is the revolution that transforms
plain old video into streaming interactive video for e-commerce
product demonstrations and online training programs, as
well as Internet pay-per-view, subscription-based payment,
and live broadcast applications."
Designed
to quickly turn any existing Web site into an interactive
video success story, ImOn.comTV enables its owners to go
beyond simple video streaming with instant Web links from
video frames, multi-language subtitles, automatic searches,
and viewer-directed video branching.
Since
making its debut last April at the National Association
of Broadcasters (NAB) 2000 Conference & Exhibition, the
ImOn.comTV Internet television system has been adopted by
a number of companies in fields as diverse as entertainment,
sports, education, training, advertising, conference management,
retailing and publishing.
Companies
using the ImOn.comTV format include Adelphi Cable, the American
Arts Network, ApproachTV.com, Blue Mountain Pictures, The

"The
breadth of our customer base shows the remarkable degree
of flexibility and productivity ImOn.comTV brings to both
large established firms as well as small, entrepreneurial
companies that share one very important thing: an understanding
of how interactive video streaming improves the usefulness
of the Internet," Schwartz said today. "With high speed
Web access -- either through cable modem, DSL or wireless
connections -- increasingly becoming a practical and affordable
reality for businesses and households, we expect more and
more companies to adopt ImOn.comTV as the most efficient
way to cost-effectively produce, develop, and deliver interactive
video via broadband."
Featuring
a minimum of 320 independent interactive video streams,
each ImOn.comTV system is a turnkey Web server that enables
