    Business Editors

    BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 19, 2005--Leading mobile content producer and publisher Infospace (NASDAQ:INSP) announced today the launch of Pub Pinball, the latest mobile game in its Pub series. The game was developed by its UK-based games studio IOMO in conjunction with Morpheme Wireless.
    Utilizing a superb pinball engine created by Morpheme Wireless, Pub Pinball follows Infospace's series of casual gaming hits including Pub Darts, Pub Slots and Pub Pool (which took first place in the January edition of ELSPA's Official Mobile Games Java Download Chart). Pub Pinball challenges players to test their skills on a full-size scrolling table using all the features found on most traditional pinball tables including rollovers, jet bumpers and sink holes.
    John Chasey, Infospace's director of games development at IOMO Studio said, "The combination of Infospace's wireless gaming expertise and Morpheme's high quality pinball engine is a great match. We have enjoyed tremendous success with our Pub Series, and Morpheme's insights into the design and capability of Pub Pinball will certainly give gamers new challenges and excitement."
    "We're incredibly pleased to have worked so closely with Infospace on this new game," said Matt Spall, CEO of Morpheme Wireless. "The award winning Pub range has been a hit with mobile subscribers and we expect this installment to continue that success."

    Pub Pinball is now available on Orange U.K.
