Title: nanoCom Launch backed by CNET Download.com

Blacksburg, VA - A San Francisco-based top-ten Internet Company is helping a Virginia video communications software company launch its fifth generation videochat software to millions of people. Download.com and nanoCom Corporation are exclusively launching the Windows version of iSpQ "Eye Speak" VideoChat 5.0 together from their websites and through millions of emails.

Download.com, the download site of the highly trafficked web property, CNET will include a 21-day full trial version of iSpQ VideoChat as the "Download Spotlight" of the Internet Section for 3 days. For another 3 days, the program will appear as a “Download of the Week.” In addition, to hosting iSpQ 5.0 on the prominent pages of Download.com, it will also be included in the weekly mailing of the "Download Dispatch" newsletter.

iSpQ VideoChat was originally endorsed with Download.com's "Pick" accreditation and is labeled a "Popular" download in the Internet webcams category. "We were so happy to have their stamp of approval with the "pick," but this launch opportunity is going to expose iSpQ VideoChat to many more people, said nanoCom President and CEO, Bob Summers. "That is great because we are confident the iSpQ 5.0 is the best videochat program available and once people try it, they will think so too," said Summers.

"Throughout the development of the iSpQ 5.0, I knew that we were producing a fantastic product that gives Internet users flexibility to utilize their webcams in many different ways through an easy-to-use interface. The CNET Download.com feature placement is a wonderful way to introduce the rich functionality of iSpQ VideoChat to the public," said nanoCom Program Manager, Ryan Rakowski.

iSpQ 5.0 combines the most popular video communication tools into one software suite. The main feature list includes: V-Mail, Video Instant Messaging, ICQ compatibility, Multi-person videoconferencing, Visual Text Chat Rooms, Pal Lists, Directories, Broadcast, and Visual User Profiles. This dynamic application will optimize your computer and Internet speed for the best possible video and audio performance in all features. Rather your connection is modem or broadband, iSpQ provides fast video performance (up to 30 FPS in broadband).
