For Immediate Release


NEW YORK, February 10, 2004 - ThrillNetwork.com is proud to announce its release of a PDA Friendly version of its Web site, called Mobile TN. This new addition is accessible via any wireless device or set up as an Avantgo channel.

Mobile TN is just as user friendly as its main site. It features easy and clear navigation and features optimal loading times for fast loads, while allowing members to check on the latest news items and make comments. ThrillNetwork is the first and only website dedicated to the amusement park industry that is accessible from PDAs.

Mobile TN auto detects user's access from the PDA and automatically forwards them to its PDA-friendly version of the site. The PDA version auto updates amusement park news in real time, always bringing the users the freshest news about their favorite amusement park.

"The idea of a PDA-friendly site has been in the back of our minds for a long time now," said Steven Heicher, Editor-in-Chief and Systems Administrator of ThrillNetwork. "When we made plans to redesign the site, we ultimately decided that we had to go one step further and include a PDA version in our plans, since people are ever increasingly accessing the Internet from cell phones and PDAs."

In the near future, ThrillNetwork will soon add PDA friendly access to its forums and the PDA GUI to its massive database of amusement parks and roller coasters in the world. The database features statistics, reviews and rankings of roller coasters and amusement parks. This will enable PDA users to access statistics of a roller coaster or park - all while they are waiting in the queue line for that roller coaster.

You can access Mobile TN by going to http://www.thrillnetwork.com and letting it forward you there automatically, or you can access it directly at http://mobile.thrillnetwork.com.
