search for television programming from the company’s large library of live
mobile television and video on demand, including ABC News, CNBC, DIC, Fox

wealth of rich media to offer wireless consumers,” said Jim Souders, Action
Engine’s senior vice president of worldwide field operations. Action Engine
makes the network more efficient.”

Action Engine is focused on making sure that
consumers don’t get frustrated trying to find and access that media. Our mobile
search technology lets consumers discover services, like television programs,
music videos, and news images, with dramatically fewer keystrokes and trips to
the network than competitive offerings, said Souders.
