FUNimation Channel's anime series MoonPhase and Galaxy Railways are now available to AT&T Wireless subscribers as a mobile video-on-demand service by texting the words "go funimation" to the number "22646"

May 29, 2008, Orlando, Florida - Red Planet Media announced today the launch of the FUNimation Channel mobile video-on-demand service, which brings leading anime titles to the screens of mobile phones by simply pointing a mobile phone browser to http://jumpinmobile.com/funimation. Anime fans can also gain quick access by texting the words "go funimation" to the number "22646".

The new service allows AT&T Wireless subscribers with video-capable phones to access entire episodes of MoonPhase and Galaxy Railways on a pay-per-clip basis. This represents the first phase of an ongoing roll out where entire seasons of FUNimation Channel's leading anime titles will be available on-demand across a broad spectrum of video-capable mobile phones and wireless carriers. Red Planet Media manages the content programming and discovery while partner OlympuSAT delivers the supporting marketing campaigns and QuickPlay Media powers the video delivery.

"The launch of this exciting portfolio of Japanese anime as a mobile video-on-demand service for AT&T subscribers is the result of a great team effort," stated Dean Fresonke, President of Red Planet Media. "This same team is readying the launch of a vast new catalog of mobile video-on-demand programming along with an advertising campaign that will be unprecedented in the industry. It will open many peoples' eyes to the power of mobile video."

"FUNimation Channel's anime titles are hot with the same 12 to 34 year olds that are quick to adopt new mobile phone technology like mobile video services," stated Kim Fragione, Vice President of Acquisition and Development at Olympusat. "We see this as the beginning of a mobile video distribution program with a very bright future."
