GlobeTel Acquires HotZone Wireless LLC, a Leader in Wireless Radio Technology.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- GlobeTel Communications Corp. (AMEX:GTE) today announced that it has acquired the assets of HotZone Wireless, LLC (HotZone). HotZone is an advanced developer of WIMAX and extended range WIFI Systems with operations in the United States and Europe. The acquisition was paid primarily in GTE shares and cash. The agreement calls for certain performances by the sellers to achieve the full consideration.

HotZone is currently developing WIMAX wireless systems for Sanswire's High Altitude Airship called a Stratellite(TM). This WIMAX system will provide radio technology for the wireless communications that will cover significant geographic areas up to 120,000 square miles.

The acquisition of HotZone will provide advanced wireless products and services for terrestrial wide area networks covering rural and city areas. Upon deployment of the Stratellite(TM), on a region-by-region and country-by-country basis the communications technology will deliver high speed voice, data and rich streaming content, as well as other communications possibilities.

About Sanswire Networks, LLC:

Sanswire Networks is a wholly owned subsidiary of GlobeTel Communications Corp. whose shares are publicly traded on American Stock Exchange under the symbol GTE.

A Stratellite(TM) is a high-altitude airship that when in place in the stratosphere (approximately 65,000 feet) will provide a stationary platform for transmitting various types of wireless communications services currently transmitted from cell towers and satellites. It is not a balloon or a blimp, but a high-altitude airship with a rigid structure.

The Stratellite(TM) is similar to a satellite in concept, but is stationed in the stratosphere rather than in orbit. Existing satellites provide easy "download" capabilities, but because of their high altitude are not practical for commercially viable "two-way" high-speed data communication. The Stratellite(TM) will allow subscribers to easily communicate in "both directions" using readily available wireless devices. http://www.sanswire.com
