Message From Nighthawk Systems CEO

Good morning!

I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving last week. The following announcement went out this morning and discusses the fact that we have started shipping our MediaPro IP3000 HD set-top boxes (“STB’s”) to our major hospitality customer.

This is significant because it starts the revenue stream and cash inflows from the STB business that we purchased about six weeks ago. We’ve got over $900,000 in orders in-house related to this business, so we’ll begin to see this turning to revenue in this current fourth quarter!

As I say in the release, our employees have worked very hard to re-kindle or establish relationships with vendors to get production going on the units in such a short timeframe. I’m obviously happy to start seeing some financial benefits of the STB business so quickly!

This release will also serve as a great marketing tool for us. We believe that we have the best high-definition STB on the market. As other potential customers see this release, it will validate for them that our units are being purchased and produced for use in some of the finest hotels in the U.S.

Have a great day!

Nighthawk Systems Initiates Shipments of IPTV Set-Top Boxes

-- Units Feature MPEG-4 (H.264) High-Definition Technology--


SAN ANTONIO, TX - 11/29/07- Nighthawk Systems, Inc. (OTC BB: NIHK), a leading provider of intelligent wireless power management solutions and IP video set-top boxes, announced today it has initiated shipments of its MediaPro IP3000HD video set-top box units to a leading hospitality services provider, and expects to continue making regular shipments to the customer throughout the remainder of 2007. These shipments allow Nighthawk to begin recognizing revenues from the recently-acquired set-top box operation. Nighthawk had previously disclosed that it had assumed a backlog of approximately $400,000 in orders for the units when it acquired the IPTV set-top box operations of Eagle Broadband in October, and had received an additional order for approximately $480,000 of the units subsequent to making the acquisition.

The MediaPro IP3000HD is a high-definition set-top box with a compact footprint and quiet, fan-less design that delivers exceptional streaming video quality for both NTSC and PAL broadcast standards. It uses an advanced system-on-chip architecture including an integrated graphics accelerator and dedicated multimedia engines executing in parallel to deliver the highest performance 2D, 3D graphics and video capabilities with motion compensation for video playback. Capable of supporting a variety of leading middleware and video-on-demand systems, including Java Script capabilities, the MediaPro IP3000HD platform delivers the advanced content system security and digital rights management (DRM) needed by a wide variety of industries and markets. It supports both high definition MPEG-4 AVC (H.264) and MPEG-2 video standards.

H. Douglas Saathoff, Nighthawk’s CEO, commented, “I’m extremely pleased that we’ve already begun shipping products from our contract manufacturing facility overseas. Our employees have worked hard to establish new relationships with key vendors in a short timeframe in order to get this process started. We look forward to continual strengthening of these relationships with vendors, and further enhancement of the Nighthawk MediaPro brand within the hospitality marketplace.”
