@Home Network and Motorola Unveil First National Consumer Ad-Campaign for Cable Internet Products and Services

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. and Arlington Hts, IL - April 7, 1999 - Widening mainstream consumer awareness and adoption of cable Internet products and services, @Home Network and Motorola Inc. today announced the cable Internet industry's first national advertising campaign. Running through May 31, 1999 in @Home markets throughout the United States, the campaign will demonstrate the innovative and practical ways the cable industry is making the Internet readily available and more applicable to everyday life. Promotion activities include television commercials that will air during popular shows such as ER, X-Files, and NYPD Blue as well as radio spots on more than 50 top radio stations throughout the country. In addition, full page color ads will appear in Time magazine, Newsweek, People, and Sports Illustrated.

The campaign combines the power of Motorola's CyberSURFR cable modems with @Home's high performance, ease of use, and top interactive content to create a revolutionary online experience. @Home and Motorola will provide consumers with the opportunity to learn about the benefit of cable modems and the advantages of the @Home service. Demonstrating the uniqueness of high-speed data services in the home, the campaign will show how all members of the family can enjoy the rich experiences that cable Internet services deliver including getting help with homework, keeping up with the latest news, weather and sports, finding recipes or purchasing gifts online.

"We've found that once consumers see the @Home service, they buy it - and when they buy it, they keep it," said Dean A. Gilbert, senior vice president & general manager of @Home Network. "By integrating a national campaign into our marketing strategy, we can communicate the advantages of cable to the masses. Through consistent messaging and promotions in all of our markets, we hope to increase consumer awareness and adoption of high-speed Internet products and services."

In conjunction with the advertising campaign, @Home Network is providing consumers with the opportunity to enter the "Sign Up & Surf Sweepstakes." Sweepstakes participants become eligible to win an 8 day, 7 night trip for two to Hawaii. In addition, Motorola is providing 30 sweepstakes winners a pair of their TalkAbout Radios -- portable two-way radios for communication with nearby friends and family members.
