It looks like Intel will have Onev on board with at least one MID platform..That means any OEM that goes with Intel also goes with Onev..Seems we already knew this but it was sort of tossed around to where it became unclear..Intel set up meetings with Onev and several companies at the last show to demo the other platform..In this case the OEM has to decide to include VR when they build their MIDs..Those meetings went very well for Onev..Onev will be at the next IDF and CTIA shows..Since the shows are at the same time Onev will have different reps at each show..It looks like Intel does believe Onev's tech has what it takes to fullfill the vision that we saw in their video..I would not bet against Onev and what is coming...veno

my favorite part: "How times have changed. As phones morph into multimedia devices with sophisticated messaging, music and video services (and lucrative data revenues), carriers are realizing that small-time developers hold the keys to the industry's future."
"This means that once haughty corporations are now catering to even tiny developer firms, wooing them with cash prizes and promises of distributing their programs by the millions."
In my opinion, great news for smaller companies with great technology like One Voice...

(OTCBB:ONEV) Chairman and CEO Dean Weber today issued the following corporate update: "We are pleased to provide our shareholders with the following corporate update: Over the past several months the Company has been working on finalizing our MobileVoice MID(TM) software for Intel based Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs). This software revolutionizes the mobile industry allowing consumers to use powerful voice control to play music, view photos, videos, launch applications, dictate a message and voice search for full Internet browsing including Google maps, navigation, YouTube video and news, all on a pocket sized Mobile Internet Device. Last month we demonstrated this software at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) show in Barcelona, Spain in the Intel booth and the feedback was tremendous. In fact we let attendees try our voice control for themselves and it worked extremely well in the noisy tradeshow even for people with very heavy accents (see http://****.onev.com/****site/2008/02/mobile-world-co.html#more for videos and information from MWC). We will demonstrate this software at the upcoming Intel Developers Forum (IDF) in Shanghai, China (April 2 - 3) and at the upcoming CTIA Wireless 2008 in Las Vegas, NV (April 1 - 3) to partners, press and analysts. This month we released a new retail product called VoiceTunes(TM), which voice activates iTunes and Windows Media Player. VoiceTunes is the ultimate companion to your digital music collection. Just say commands like "Play The Rolling Stones" or "Play Rock Music" to instantly play your music! VoiceTunes comes with a free trial download and MSRP of $29.95. VoiceTunes will be in retail stores this summer. For more information, visit http://www.onev.com/products. In the telecom sector we are shipping equipment for installation in India this week in support of the upcoming launch with the Indian government owned carrier MTNL. MTNL has over 6 million subscribers. We expect the installation to be complete by mid-April and ready for full launch in early May. Regarding our Iris service in Mexico, it is proceeding very well and we anticipate expanding the service to more cities or a national launch this summer. For more information on Iris, visit http://www.telnor.com/iris or http://www.yosoyiris.com. One Voice has several tremendous opportunities that we are actively pursuing and we are very confident in the future of our company as the leader in voice control and voice search technologies.

The 10 K has been filed. The following I copied from the Overview,,,
TELECOM SECTOR
In the Telecom sector, we believe that the Mobile Messaging market, which has both business and consumer market applications including: e-mail, instant messages, and SMS (Short Message Service), is extremely large and is growing at an astonishing rate. One Voice solutions enable users to send, route and receive text messages using voice from any type of phone (wired or wireless) anywhere in the world.
The Company's strategy, in the telecom sector, is to continue aggressive sales and marketing activities for our voice solutions, which we believe, may result in increased deployments and revenue stream. The product offerings will encompass both MobileVoice(TM) suite of solutions as well as our Directory Assistance 411 service.
In 2006, the Company signed a deployment contract with the residential group within TELMEX for deployment of One Voice's MobileVoice solutions to the over 19 million TELMEX subscribers throughout Mexico. The MobileVoice service was launched to TELNOR subscribers, a TELMEX subsidiary, in October, 2007 as a TELNOR branded service called IRIS. For information on IRIS visit Iris or Telnor - Inicio. The MobileVoice (IRIS) service has tested and performed very well as anticipated. We are working closely with TELNOR to ensure the IRIS service is very successful and the feedback to date has been very positive. We are now working with both the residential and small, medium business (SMB) groups within TELMEX for coordinate a national launch for IRIS in both groups. We are confident this national launch will happen in the coming months. The revenue generated from of a national launch with TELMEX should have a material impact on the Company.
In October 2007 both the Company and Mantec Consultants ("Mantec") entered into a contract with Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd. ("MTNL") of India to provide MobileVoice services to MTNL's over 6 million subscribers. Mantec is One Voice's local sales associate in India. MTNL is owned and operated by the Government of India. The Company and Mantec are currently working on deployment of hardware and systems integration with MTNL. According to MTNL, the MobileVoice service will be made available to MTNL's existing 6.13 million subscribers for MobileVoice email by phone service and the total expected customers for this service is .92 million within the first two years. MTNL has set the monthly subscription price of $1.25 USD monthly per subscriber out of which the Company has a 30% share. We anticipate the MTNL revenue stream to grow as we launch additional MobileVoice services including voice dialing, group call and voice-to-SMS services. In order to expedite the launch with MTNL we decided to initially launch email by phone and the revenue projections given by the marketing department of MTNL reflect the email by phone service only. We anticipate this revenue projection to grow as additional MobileVoice services are launched to MTNL subscribers. We are planning on having our service ready for testing by MTNL in early May, 2008. MTNL will then have a 3 month testing period after which revenue generation to the Company will commence. The revenue generated from this launch with MTNL should have a material impact on the Company.
The Company recently signed an agreement to deploy MobileVoice services with Mohave Wireless. This service was launched to Mohave Wireless subscribers in February of 2008. The MobileVoice service will be included as a standard service for all Mohave Wireless subscribers.
The Company recently signed a Teaming Agreement with Motorola to work together to broaden Motorola's offerings to Motorola customers. These offering could include solutions such as One Voice's MobileVoice along with media control and voice search. We are currently working with Motorola on joint proposals to Motorola carrier customers along with adding voice search capabilities to existing Motorola multi-media products for access to a mobile phone users' music library from their mobile phone.
The Company is currently in a test phase with a national yellow pages provider that is evaluating our automated 411 voice search service for automated directory lookup. The target launch of this service would be this year if selected.
EMBEDDED SECTOR
On August 15, 2007 the Company signed a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with Intel Corporation in which both companies will work together to add One Voice's voice technology to a Linux based handheld device. The Company sees a potential opportunity with this mass consumer electronics (CE) device and will apply the necessary resources to co-develop this project. We have been working closely with Intel engineers to add voice control to their Moblin operating system. We have recently demonstrated this capability in the Intel booth at the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show, Mobile World Congress and the upcoming Intel Developers Forum. We have also ported our software to RedFlag Linux. Both RedFlag Linux and Moblin are the primary operating systems used on Mobile Internet Devices (MIDs). Both One Voice and Intel have jointly presented our voice solution to several MID OEM's and we have initial confirmation that our software will be bundled on a major OEM's MID for launch in Q4 of 2008.
PC SECTOR
In the PC sector, we believe that digital in-home entertainment is rapidly growing with the wide acceptance of digital photography, MP3 music and videos, along with plasma and LCD TV's. We believe that companies including Apple, Microsoft and Intel are actively creating products and technology, which allow consumers to experience the next-generation of digital entertainment. The Company's Media Center Communicator(TM) product works with Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 and Microsoft Windows Vista to add voice-navigation and a full suite of communication features allowing consumers to talk to their Media Center PC to play music, view photo slideshows, watch and record TV, place Voice-Over-IP (VoIP) phone calls, read and send e-mail and Instant Message friends and family, all by voice. The company recently launched a new retail product called VoiceTunes. VoiceTunes allows users to voice control their entire music library including Apple iTunes and Windows Media. This product is similar to our flagship product Media Center Communicator but is very focused on music. The feedback from retailers has been very positive and we are now preparing for have VoiceTunes available on retail store shelves by this summer.
In summary, since the beginning of 2007, the Company has deployed services with telecom carriers and began recognizing a recurring revenue stream. Management believes the Company's transition into the revenue recognition phase is very important as it signifies acceptance of our solutions and the value they deliver to the customer and their subscribers.
