NextPhase Wireless Completes First Phase of WiMAX Field Trial in Southern CaliforniaSuccessfully Demonstrates Network Coverage, Greater Bandwidth Throughput, Security, Capacity, Speed and Reliability on IEEE 802.16d Certified WiMAX EquipmentANAHEIM, California -- April 1, 2008 -- NextPhase Wireless (OTCBB: NPHS - News), a nationwide developer of WiMAX-ready networks and provider of advanced wireless broadband solutions, today announced the successful completion of the first phase of a planned year-long WiMAX field trial in Southern California. 
"Completing the first step of this important field trial represents a notable milestone for NextPhase, helping to demonstrate the early strength, reach and performance of our new WiMAX-enabled network, and confirming our ability to deliver cost-effective, reliable, secure and scalable broadband solutions to our growing customer base in Southern California," stated Tom Hemingway, Chairman and COO of NextPhase. In Phase I of the trial, the Company demonstrated up to 15% greater bandwidth throughput on IEEE 802.16d WiMAX-certified equipment, and succeeded in achieving favorable levels of performance for all material test parameters. Phase II of the trial is set to begin in the next four to six weeks and will test 16d equipment deployment and performance using the 3.65 - 3.7 GHz spectrum for delivery of NextPhase's full suite of business class wireless broadband services. Phase III will launch in the third quarter and will test 16d equipment on the 29 - 66 GHz bands. The final phase of the trial, anticipated to be completed by the end of the year, will test 802.16e mobile WiMAX-certified equipment, providing for indoor installation of customer premises equipment without line of sight to NextPhase's radio base stations. The anticipated year-long field trial will endeavor to confirm a range of key performance metrics involving distance connectivity, building penetration, transmission speeds, quality of service and security using WiMAX-certified equipment over licensed fixed wireless (LMDS - "Local Multipoint Distribution Service") spectrum acquired late last year in a multi-BTA (Basic Trading Area) agreement with Nextlink Wireless, Inc. This particular WiMAX trial will be conducted strictly in NextPhase's service region in Southern California, but will be duplicated in other key BTAs around the country as the Company continues rolling out its nationwide WiMAX network. Continuing, Hemingway noted, "Considering we were granted a license by the FCC to provide WiMAX wireless services to customers nationwide, the critical data, knowledge and industry expertise we gain through each successive phase of the trial will prove invaluable in assisting us to ultimately streamline and accelerate the WiMAX conversion of both wired and wireless connectivity platforms that NextPhase currently owns or hopes to acquire in the future." In January of this year, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) awarded NextPhase a nationwide license to provide WiMAX wireless services in the newly released 3.65 GHz band (3650-3700 MHz). Combined with acquired LMDS spectrum in Atlanta, Georgia; Los Angeles, California; Miami/Fort Lauderdale, Florida; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Wilmington, Delaware; Trenton, New Jersey, the Company is now empowered to offer customers a comprehensive portfolio of business-grade broadband services.
