Diamond I Responds to Inquiries: What is "WifiCasino GS"?
BATON ROUGE, LA 01/27/2005 - Diamond I, Inc. (formerly AirRover Wi-Fi Corp.) (OTCBB: AVWF), a Wi-Fi-based communications solutions company, provided today, in response to numerous inquiries, an explanation of its Wi-Fi-based, hand-held gaming system known as "WifiCasino GS", as well as a clarification of its strategy for bringing this product to market.
The Wireless Gaming System
Diamond I's WifiCasino GS is a secure wireless PDA-based gambling and media network designed for Las Vegas-style casinos and resorts, as well as cruise ships and race tracks. The WifiCasino GS is designed to allow patrons to gamble anywhere on a casino's, ship's or track's premises (as permitted by regulatory bodies), including in their rooms, pool-side and at the bar. Using unique, proprietary technologies, Diamond I's system offers a highly secure and consumer friendly gambling solution.
In addition, Diamond I's system is capable of extending beyond gambling applications, to include providing Internet access, obtaining resort information, ordering meals and drinks, accessing concierge services, etc. With future applications in mind, WifiCasino GS's modular design will accommodate future plug-in modules that provide additional functionality, thereby permitting the host resort to provide its patrons with new forms of services and experiences.
Implementation Options
WifiCasino GS can be setup solely as a wireless gambling product or can be implemented as a full resort services/gambling/management/media system, depending on the preferences of the resort. Diamond I's system can be integrated into a resort's existing IT infrastructure or can be installed and operated as a stand-alone system.
WifiCasino GS is made up of five integrated systems that deliver wireless gambling, multimedia applications and Advanced Customer Relationship Management (CRM), as well as Statistical Recording/Analysis (SRA).
SecureGamble provides the gambling and security features allowing users to gamble from PDA's within the hotel. It uses biometric identification, location tracking, and other security implementations to guarantee legitimate gambling.
MediaServe is a modular system that handles the non-gambling media, marketing, and other amenities and services. At anytime, the resort can choose to implement optional modules that deliver customized features to the casino guest, such as internet access, resort and event info, audio/video features, account information, concierge services, checkout and billing info.
AirTrack is the location tracking system. This system is used by every other system and location-based service.
GSAdmin is the management and administration system for the WifiCasino GS, which allows management to monitor any active module or application in real-time.
OpenHand CRM/SRA is the full CRM and Statistical Recording/Analysis engine of the system. It works to collect user data, activity info, location info, etc.
The Market Development Process
Diamond I seeks to secure a Las Vegas hotel/casino to serve as the demonstration site for its WifiCasino GS, in conjunction with its application for a gaming license. Currently, Diamond I is in negotiations with a nationally-known Las Vegas casino to serve as the demonstration facility for its system. Also, Diamond I is working to secure a cruise ship on which to implement a WifiCasino GS system; Diamond I has had preliminary discussions with the owners of one or more cruise ships. Diamond I has also had preliminary discussions with the owners of one or more horse racing facilities, with respect to its establishing a WifiCasino GS system on such a facility.
