Oasys Mobile, Inc. Partners with Corbis Mobile to Provide Cell Phone Personalization Content

LAS VEGAS & RALEIGH, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 6, 2006--Oasys Mobile, Inc. (OTCBB: OYSM), a leading provider of premium mobile media content, products and services, announced today a partnership with Corbis Mobile, a division of Corbis, a leading provider of image licensing and related services, to provide consumers access to thousands of mobile wallpapers. With the broadest, deepest collection of imagery in the world, Corbis will provide a wide selection of wallpaper content for distribution on OasysMobile.com.

OasysMobile.com is the first mobile lifestyle portal where consumers can purchase the latest mobile content - including ringtones, games, wallpapers and more - and safely store them in a virtual "locker" that can be accessed anytime, anywhere. The password-protected lockers give consumers a safe place to store and retrieve their mobile content should they upgrade, lose or break their handsets. OasysMobile.com will offer Corbis content specifically targeted to the trends of the mobile marketplace, including anime, backgrounds, cartoons, animals, fine art, flags, flowers, seasonal images, landscapes, spiritual images, urban images and signs of the zodiac.

“Corbis is known industry wide for its high-end mobile content,” said Corbis Mobile VP/GM, Mark Levy. “Oasys Mobile's broad experience leveraging high-quality imagery in the mobile marketplace made it a natural partner for Corbis. We are delighted that consumers can now buy our images at OasysMobile.com.”

Gary Ban, CEO of Oasys Mobile said, “Corbis' images are seen by millions of people around the world--in magazines, newspapers and films, on television and in thousands of advertisements. Now consumers can personalize their mobile phones with beautiful, professional quality Corbis images as wallpapers from OasysMobile.com. We are pleased to offer a wide variety of popular and unique content at OasysMobile.com, now featuring the extensive collection of Corbis mobile wallpaper.”

Oasys Mobile partners with carriers and content providers to bring consumers the best mobile content. The Company's other high-quality image partners include The Grateful Dead and Golf Digest. The Company has a strong history of working with leading content providers to develop compelling and unique wireless applications and content for the mobile phone. Through its relationships with mega-brand content partners like Fujifilm, AOL, Mattel, The Wall Street Journal and nine-time World Series of Poker pro Phil Hellmuth, Oasys Mobile has developed more than 30 compelling and unique mobile products in the popular categories of games, personalization, entertainment and messaging. This content is distributed through OasysMobile.com and through major wireless carriers and distribution partners worldwide.
