GLOBALTEL MEDIA TO SHOWCASE FREE WEB-TO-CELL SMS CHAT APP AT CES 2010

SAN DIEGO, Jan 6, 2010 -- Globaltel Media Inc., the same company that introduced the world’s first-stand alone, no registration, no subscription, sender-free PC-to-cell SMS chat application, has announced it will be exhibiting the latest release of Cherple™ at CES 2010.  Like its original counterpart, Cherple™ 1.5 will connect any computer with Internet access worldwide to any U.S. mobile phone via back-and-forth SMS text messaging. 

Innovative new features make text chatting using Cherple™ 1.5 more enjoyable and even more effortless.  Exclusive to Cherple™ 1.5 is a history list that recalls the last five used mobile phone numbers and enhanced support for proxies and firewalls.

“Globaltel Media created Cherple™ as a no-fee and no-subscription way to stay connected on-line anywhere in the world with friends and family in the US through SMS text messages,” said Robert Sanchez, president and CEO of Globaltel Media, providers of Cherple™.  “The expanded features are the most requested items from our growing Cherple™ user base.  Cherple™ is SMS that acts like Instant Messaging but it relies solely upon SMS not an IM application.  Cherple™ will continue to allow people to connect and communicate in a way that’s cost effective, easy-to-use, completely private and permission-based.”

Cherple™ 1.5 is available from www.cherple.com as a free download for Microsoft Windows and Macintosh computers.  Registration is not required, but is highly recommended to ensure users receive timely notices for Cherple™ updates and upgrades. 

Cherple™ features an easy-to-use interface and the ability to send a text message from any on-line computer to any U.S. cell phone and back, making it the ideal platform to have a real time, two-way chat across any distance, without the need for a special wireless data plan, smart phone or registration.  Standard text messaging rates apply to the U.S. cell phone receiving and replying to any Cherple™ message and there is no cost to the on-line user who initiates and maintains the conversation.  A version of Cherple™ is also available for white-label licensing for enterprises and businesses.    

Cherple™, powered by Globaltel Media, follows the Mobile Marketing Association’s permission-based guidelines and is opt-in/opt-out compliant.  Use of Cherple™ is paid for through connection advertising and licensing.  For more on Globaltel Media, Inc., visit www.globaltelmedia.com.
