Addition of Opera browser brings power of the web to a PC-independent, always-on broadband smartphone

AURORA, Ill., and OSLO, Norway -- June 21, 2007 -- Westell Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WSTL), a leading broadband access equipment provider, and Opera Software, an industry leading cross-platform Web browser company, today announced the integration of the Opera browser for Microsoft® Windows® CE.net into Westell’s MediaTerminal™ broadband smartphone. In addition to providing access to all Web pages and enabling advanced Web 2.0 applications, Opera will render parts of the device’s user interface, which is easily configured to deliver unique, customized service provider content.

Westell introduced the MediaTerminal in 2006 as a multi-service delivery platform for data, video and voice. It combines a state-of-the-art interactive color touch-screen and a traditional cordless digital telephone, connecting to any DSL, cable, fiber or wireless broadband network. With Opera, the MediaTerminal can now be re-formatted as quickly and conveniently as updating a Web page. The software includes Opera’s Widget implementation, allowing the MediaTerminal to deliver personalized content to users, including weather forecasts, news headlines and stock market updates.

"The MediaTerminal is designed for carriers who want to bundle information, communication, and entertainment to build subscriber usage and retention," said Carl Steen, Westell product line director. "Opera not only gives the MediaTerminal an intuitive user interface and Widget functionality, but also an optimized Web browsing experience that easily adapts to touch-screen navigation. It’s a powerful solution for our customers," Steen said.

The MediaTerminal is targeted to subscribers with an existing broadband connection. The device includes a built-in speakerphone and supports up to four DECT cordless handsets that are capable of simultaneously providing PSTN-POTS and VoIP telephony. A video camera option is available. By including Opera on the device, users can access any Web site from the convenience of the intuitive LCD touch screen.

We are excited to work with Westell because of their visionary approach to incorporating personalized Widgets on devices,” said Scott Hedrick, Opera Software executive vice president for devices. “Every service provider’s needs differ, and Opera provides a simple and easy-to-use solution based in Web standards that allows Westell to offer the flexibility their customers demand.” For more information about the Westell MediaTerminal, visit www.westell.com/media- stations.html.
