(PRLEAP.COM) Fremont, CA, August 9, 2007 – Mobifusion, a U.S.-based pioneer in the world of mobile media, today announced it has signed an agreement with reference publishing giant World Book, resulting in a new array of top-selling titles for the mobile user. The companies plan to work together to bring a variety of mobile products designed exclusively for the next generation of mobile users – children and young adults.

“World Book has a vast database of materials from the nation’s top-selling reference titles to value-added offerings that will make ideal mobile products for this information-hungry age group,” said Pavan Mandhani, Founder and CEO of Mobifusion. “Our innovative technology perfectly matches World Book’s desires to bring their wealth of information to the mobile user in a simple, easy-to-use format that users of any age can easily access.”

“We were attracted to Mobifusion for a variety of reasons, but most importantly we were particularly impressed with the speed and simplicity with which Mobifusion will be able to bring our works to market,” said World Book President Paul Gazzolo. “Also, Mobifusion’s technology offers both scalability and flexibility that allows them to easily update and add new information to the mobile products, giving the user the most up-to-date content available.”

According to Gazzolo, one of the first titles planned for release will be World Book – All About Animals, a rich mobile product developed using content from seven different World Book titles, animal illustrations for wallpaper options, and animal trivia quizzes. “This is all designed to give the user an enriched, custom and fun mobile experience.”

Mandhani noted that World Book’s strong brand recognition throughout the world, will enable both companies to work together to create exciting and popular mobile products and identify new markets outside of the U.S., such as Latin America and others.
