ADVISORY/ICTV President Wes Hoffman to Speak During the Consumer Platform Session at COMDEX '98.


ADVISORY...for Monday Monday: see week.  (Nov. 16)

--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

WHO:   Wes Hoffman, president of ICTV, the first company to provide
       commercial Internet and multimedia access through cable-connected
       television sets and CD-ROM game play to those sets, is delivering
       a presentation during the COMDEX '98. His presentation will
       focus on competing technology platforms and the opportunities
       to get consumers online.

WHAT:  ICTV is in an excellent position to address these issues since
       it offers cable operators the best platform to provide consumers
       with the services they want at the right price. With a platform
       service that has a clear migration path, featuring easy upgrades
       and maintenance, operators eliminate excessive hardware costs,
       service interruptions and technology obsolescence. Consumers
       benefit from the ICTV platform by receiving a relaxed,
       entertaining experience similar to television programming: full
       screen, motion, sound and graphics. Subscribers get outstanding
       access speeds, scalability to adopt new Internet technologies
       and, with more than 220 interactive CD-ROM titles, the content
       they want at the right price.

WHERE: Las Vegas Hilton
       Las Vegas

WHEN:  2:20 p.m.-3:15 p.m.
       Nov. 16

INTERVIEW
OPPORTUNITIES:  Wes Hoffman is available for interviews by contacting
                Christine Bock or Danielle Sweeney of Bock
                Communications Inc. at 714/540-1030.
