**Release under embargo for first three months of pregnancy**
LONDON, March 8, 2006 — Mr. and Mrs. Smith Ltd, a UK-based start-up in the human life-form market, today announced the release of Tommy Smith Junior Version 1.0, with a wide range of usability and integration enhancements as well as the ability to act as the central platform for a Baby Oriented Architecture (BOA) rollout.
Building on the earlier host-based version of Tommy Smith Junior that was successfully beta tested in the womb by a number of practitioners in the ultrasound sector, Version 1.0 now runs in semi-independent remote access mode.
In addition to now offering host-independent functionality, Tommy Smith Junior Version 1.0 features a raft of user interface, integration and back-end enhancements that help to deliver far higher Return On Birth (ROB) figures compared to competitive products, including:
– User interface enhancements: A full range of communication protocols, from soft gurgling to ear-piercing voice projection capabilities
– Integration: Tommy Smith Junior Version 1.0 features tight coupling with Mrs. Smith in order to handle ongoing feeding requirements

In addition, Mr. and Mrs. Smith Ltd announced that Tommy Smith Junior Version 1.0 can be customized to fit a wide range of Baby Oriented Architecture (BOA) standards-based accessories, including clothing, travelling, sleeping and playing paraphernalia**.
Furthermore, the company said that Version 1.0 can be safely and remotely managed using a baby intercom-based systems management interface, with full voice-over-wireless capability***. Mr. and Mrs. Smith Ltd also announced that they are working on adding high definition video-over-wireless on a 4.5G network with the impending upgrade to Version 2.0.
PRICING AND AVAILABILITY
Tommy Smith Junior Version 1.0 is available now at an average cost of £3,500 in year one and £100,000 by the time he reaches 18 years of age, including £500 on nappies in year one (genuine figures courtesy American Express, March 2004).
