Press Release Body = Tunbridge Wells, November 2, 2006. -- Synchronica plc
(AIM:SYNC), a pioneering vendor of mobile data management and synchronization
solutions based on open standards, has announced that it has won three Gold and one
Silver Mobile Star Awards from MobileVillage.

The fifth annual Mobile Star Awards aim to honour and promote the best companies,
products, deployments, and leaders in mobile and wireless technology.

Winners are chosen by subscribers to Go Mobile, MobileVillage\'s free online
newsletter sent to technology executives, mobile professionals, IT managers and
developers. MobileVillage is the 14-year leader in market development and news
services about mobile technology.

Synchronica SyncML Gateway has been ranked as a Gold Star product in both the mobile
email category and the enterprise middleware category. In the mobile device
management category, Synchronica\'s Mobile Manager was voted as a silver star
product. Synchronica CEO, Carsten Brinkschulte, a pioneer of SyncML client server
software and an active member of the open mobile association (OMA), has also been
voted to receive the Gold Mobile Star award for his role as a visionary in the
enterprise mobile software space.

Synchronica SyncML Gateway middleware delivers push email and synchronization of
calendar and contact information to any SyncML compliant mobile phone. This provides
a BlackBerry like experience to business users, without restricting them to a single
type of device. SyncML Gateway also delivers mobile email to consumers through an
OEM agreement with IXI Mobile, manufacturer of the mass-market mobile email device
Ogo.

Silver award winner Synchronica Mobile Manager provides businesses with a complete
self care facility for the management of their smartphones, with the ability to
remotely lock and wipe data from any phone that has been decommissioned, lost or
stolen. If a smartphone is stolen, end users can even opt to activate Mobile
Manager\'s Scream feature over the air, to cause an embarrassing high pitched wail to
be emitted from the device.

\"The Mobile Star Awards program has grown along with the mobile industry\", says
MobileVillage Editor Gary Thayer. \"This year we saw hundreds of entries in about 60
categories and almost 1,000 Go Mobile readers took the time to cast votes.\"

\"We are delighted to receive this award\", said Brinkschulte. \"It is particularly
gratifying to know that our products have been chosen by readers of Go Mobile, who
are active users of mobile technology and knowledgeable about the range products
available to them for their mobile email and device management requirements.\"
