Pramati Inks OEM Deal With Netgear

SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Pramati Technologies, a pioneer in bringing Web 2.0

technologies to the desktop,, today announced a partnership with NETGEAR, Inc. (NASDAQGM:

NTGR), a worldwide provider of technologically advanced, branded networking solutions, to enhance

the personalized media experience for users of the award-winning NETGEAR ReadyNAS Duo Home

Media Server. The ReadyNAS Duo products are intelligent award-winning network storage solutionsthat enable consumers to centralize, organize and serve digital media throughout the home to network

attached devices such as Windows- and Macintosh-based computers, digital media receivers and game

consoles.

Under the terms of the agreement, NETGEAR will ship ReadyNAS Photos, an adapted version of the

Dekoh Photos application optimized for ReadyNAS, with every ReadyNAS Duo Home Media Serverdevice. ReadyNAS Photos enables users to easily move digital photographs from their networked

computers to the ReadyNAS Duo and share those photos with friends and family with a single click.

Traditionally, pictures are shared by uploading to photo sharing websites or by configuring home

routers to allow direct web access to home computers. With ReadyNAS Photos, both these technically

complex and time consuming steps are avoided.

"As consumers accumulate and store ever-increasing amounts of digital photographs and other digitalcontent, users want to do more with their photos than to store and archive them - they want to share

them with family and friends around the world," explained Paul Tien, Vice President and General

Manager for NETGEAR's Network Storage Unit. "The capabilities provided by the Dekoh software

enable users to extend the media experience beyond the connected home to the Web. Adding a Web

2.0 style user interface and media sharing functionality is changing the way users leverage the robustfeature-set of our ReadyNAS devices and opens up a whole new world of media-sharing capabilities

for consumers."
