  • PRESS RELEASE

New games mobility software from i-mate™ allows players to play an interactive game from their desktop, pause it and switch to their mobile and continue to play.

Games have two-mode availability - standalone and online multiplayer - where players can IM chat, Push to Talk and exchange pictures taken from the device camera or downloaded from club i-mate™ (www.clubimate.com) within a game.

i-mate™ is updating six of its interactive games to make them available in Play-In ~ Play-Out mode. Current titles include the most popular Dominoes, Texas Hold'em Poker, Pool, Snooker, Blackjack and Craps.

i-mate™ Chief Executive Jim Morrison said:
"This i-mate™ developed software is the first example of seamless interaction between PC and mobile device.

As experts in mobility and a dedicated global vendor of Windows Mobile® devices, i-mate ™ is developing the games technology of the future. Through developing our own Windows Mobile® games, we can demonstrate the power, functionality and flexibility of the Windows Mobile® platform and our devices."


The software features intuitive game controls, different difficulty levels of standalone game play and a comprehensive range of emoticons - including smileys and avatars - to communicate feelings while playing online. Realistic graphics and harmonious sound effects favor alive and stunning game play.

The interactive experience with other players is also enhanced by a Push to Talk feature, which allows the exchange of short voice messages between players during the game.

The software for mobile devices can be downloaded by club i-mate™ members from www.clubimate.com. The download includes both the mobile and PC applications.
