BelAir Networks to Provide Wi-Fi Hot Zone Covering the Entire 2005 Dad Vail Regatta and the 79th Annual Stotesbury Cup Regatta.


WHAT:       BelAir Networks is providing a powerful, wide-area
            wireless broadband network to allow spectators and
            participants to track the progress and results of
            country's largest college and high school regattas, The
            Dad Vail Regatta and The Stotesbury Cup in Philadelphia.

            BelAir will turn the entire course for both regattas into
            a Wi-Fi hot zone for fans and racers. Both races follow a
            2,000 meter course along the Schuykill River in Fairmount
            Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. For the first time in
            the history of the regattas, attendees will be able to
            download race results in real-time, follow races over
            Internet video, or even send e-mail updates to friends and
            family around the world with their Wi-Fi enabled laptops
            or PDAs.

            Additionally, visitors can watch the races live on a big
            screen monitor in the BelAir tent or access the wireless
            network for free on one of many complementary workstations
            set up by Belair Networks for the event.


WHO:        The Dad Vail Regatta is the largest collegiate regatta
            in the United States, drawing 4,000 rowers from more than
            100 different colleges and universities in the U.S. and
            Canada along with more than 100,000 cheering fans.

            The 79th Annual Stotesbury Cup is considered the largest
            high school regatta in the US, and draws more than 3,500
            rowers from across the country.

            BelAir Networks is the first company to offer scalable
            wide-area wireless broadband solutions that deliver high
            quality data, video and voice services for large scale
            deployments such as downtown business districts, hotels,
            resorts and, large, outdoor sporting events.


WHEN:       The Dad Vail Regatta will be held May 13 - 14, 2005,
            with the 79th Annual Stotesbury Cup taking place the
            following weekend on May 20-21.
