Article Excerpt:
TWST: Would you start with an overview of Fortuna?Mr. Waugh: Fortuna was a company formed to go after the development of online wireless poker gaming in the market. The company's main focus was to concentrate on a new avenue of translation wireless for the popular gaming site of Texas Holdem poker.
TWST: Would you describe online wireless gaming in more detail?
Mr. Waugh: In the world today, as everyone uses the Internet as a base
for transferring gaming onto fixed-base sites like your house or your
office or wherever you're playing, our new style and our integrated
platform for doing this now would be to go through a gateway server that
would still supply the existing player in PC games at home, but now
would have a gateway server that would take us into the mobility side.
So our idea is to go to a wireless format as well. We think that's where
the market is moving. Everybody has wireless PCs and I think that's
where the market is going. We are the first in the market to offer
multiplayer Texas Holdem on wireless devices such as cellphones.
