GEOSENTRIC OYJ	BULLETIN 	20.8.2008 at 21:00                                     


GyPSii announces support for Intel-based mobile internet devices                

Including platform support for Moblin-based Linux OS, Windows XP, and Windows   
Vista                                                                           

GeoSentric Oyj's (NASDAQ OMX: GEO1V), GeoSolutions BV Business Unit (GyPSii),   
the market-leading mobile digital lifestyle application and geo-mobility social 
networking platform, today announced that it is optimizing its popular social   
networking application for Moblin-based Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs) based on 
Intel® Atom™ processor Z5XX series.                                             

The GyPSii® application connects people and content to places and networks -    
from work to play to home - allowing users to share their real life experiences 
in the virtual world. It is the first application of its kind that enables      
people to record their life based on their location, bringing together new      
mobile lifestyle capabilities including User Generated Content, Locating Friends
and Points of Interest - all in a single, easy-to-use interface. ABI Research   
forecasts 90M MID units to ship over the next 4 years, with users from Gen Y,   
Social Networkers, Young Gamers and the Lifestyle Boomer segments.              

“GyPSii is a mobile social networking category leader,” said Dan Harple,        
Executive Chairman of GeoSentric. “GyPSii is committed to delivering compelling 
user experiences for leading MID and UMD customers. The deal follows our        
multi-prong strategy to achieve mass market user adoption,” continued Harple.   
“In a market that is set for huge growth in Asia, the Americas and Europe,      
GyPSii now adds our mobile lifestyle application for Gen X, Y and Z on ultra    
mobile connected mid range devices.”                                            

“Social networking and location-based service trends comprise a significant     
share of the Internet traffic today and are appealing to MID users. GyPSii's    
social networking application is well positioned to capitalize on these industry
trends,” said Pankaj Kedia, director of Global Ecosystem Programs for Intel     
Corporation's Ultra Mobility Group. “Intel's low power technologies, combined   
with GyPSii's application, should make it easier for our customers to bring     
compelling user experiences to the MID user.                                    

GyPSii's applications and services is expected to be featured in Intel's keynote
as showcased at the upcoming Intel Developers Forum in San Francisco from August
19-21, 2008.                                                                    

In addition to Moblin based Linux OS, GyPSii supports MID running Windows XP™   
and Windows Vista™ platforms.
