Coming off a 2011 holiday season that witnessed consumers purchasing tablets at a torrid pace, the recent exponential growth in sales promises to spur the consumption of games, which numerous studies indicate are the number one activity on tablet devices. GameTanium Mobile capitalizes on this new demand by providing consumers an easy one-stop shop for filling up their tablets with only the latest and best graphically rich games available on the market. With mobile game play continuing its dramatic growth curve, GameTanium now offers operators the ability to leverage Exent's world leading Games on Demand service on the two mobile platforms their consumers want most.

Exent powers the Games on Demand offerings for the world's leading service providers. With its suite of platform enablement options - from PC to TV to smartphone to tablets – Exent's Built with GameTanium services give operators an incredibly "sticky" value-added service that increases average revenue per user (ARPU), strengthens brand loyalty and retention and can be merchandised in virtually limitless ways.
