WizCom Successfully Releases Quicktionary II Genius

Jerusalem, October 13 2003 - WizCom Technologies Ltd. (WizCom)
(Prime Standard: WZM, IL 0010830706), is pleased to announce the
successful release of Quicktionary II Genius, the company's new
"scan and translate" product for the Japanese market, featuring the
renowned Genius English-Japanese Dictionary (3rd edition)
published by Taishukan Publishing Company Ltd. The Genius
product is based on WizCom's Quicktionary II platform, which enjoys
success in the Japanese market and worldwide.

"WizCom Technologies prides itself on adapting the company's
products to meet our end-users needs", explains Amit Ben-Zvi, CEO
of WizCom Technologies. "Our decision to introduce the Quicktionary
II Genius was a direct response to a demand generated by the
Japanese market for a product incorporating a leading, brand-name
dictionary. We expect that by providing our Japanese customers with
Quicktionary II Genius, we will further improve their satisfaction
with
our products and strengthen market acceptance. We envision that
revenue from this product will reach US$ 0.75 million during 2003",
adds Ben-Zvi.

Quicktionary II is a hand-held, pen shaped scanner with which users
scan, translate and hear the pronunciation of a printed word or full
line of text, in seconds. This enables Quicktionary II users to look
up
unknown words while maintaining eye contact with the text, thus not
losing their train of thought while searching for a word.
Quicktionary II
is a practical reading and translating tool for students of English
as a
Second Language, travelers, and individuals working in multi-lingual
environments. Two local distributors will sell Quicktionary II Genius
in Japan. The product will be sold for 29,800 Yen (approx. US$ 270).
Mr. Masamitsu Momotani, Co-Founder of Takachiho Koheki and
Business Advisor to Wizcom Technologies, comments that the QTII
version of the popular Genius English-Japanese dictionary is a
unique addition to the Taishukan offering as it is a Genius tool
focused specifically on improving English reading skills. The fact
that
Quictionary II enables readers to maneuver easily between
condensed and expanded formats of the dictionary offers them the
option of viewing a quick explanation or full definition of any
scanned
word. "I am pleased to see the Genius dictionary on this new
technological platform", sums up Masamitsu Momotani.
