Airborne Entertainment Rolls Boardsports Lifestyle Onto Cellphones With Branded Wallpapers From Recognized Skate-and-Snowboard Pioneers Vision Street Wear(R) and Lamar(R)

            Personalization Products Tap Next Wave of Street Style

    MONTREAL, April 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cellphones everywhere are
about to get retro-fitted with board sports-inspired graphics thanks to new
boarding lifestyle wallpapers from two of the original skate and snowboarding
brands, Vision Street Wear(R) and Lamar(R), produced by Airborne
Entertainment, a subsidiary of CYBIRD Co., Ltd.  With exploding retail
placement and projected record sales of board sports-inspired footwear and
clothing, these wallpapers are certain to appeal to a burgeoning young teen
audience keen to express themselves through customized mobile personalization
products.
    "For three decades, Vision and Lamar have been renowned as the epitome of
style and cool," said Airborne Entertainment CEO Garner Bornstein.  "So much
of mountain and street lifestyle is expressed through graphics, and we can't
wait to take on the challenge of making cellphones as eye-popping as boards
and t-shirts."
    Founded in 1976, Vision Street Wear(R) designed the early prototypes for
what eventually became the modern skateboard.  By the end of the 1980s,
Vision(R) had become an $80,000,000 top-selling global skateboard brand.
Vision(R) now boasts a 29-year heritage as one of the true innovators in
action sports lifestyle and attitude.  With these roots, Vision(R) is ideally
positioned to capture the exploding street-style-oriented youth demographic.
    Since its founding in 1989, Lamar(R) has steadily grown into a dominant
multi-category brand.  Like Vision(R), Lamar(R)'s Southern Californian core
skate origins continue to inspire its products today -- a fact that speaks to
the hardcore rider lifestyle that is so popular with males between the ages of
13 and 23.  Lamar(R)'s trend-setting graphics and styling are propelling the
brand into new product categories and distribution, with cell phone wallpapers
as its latest offering.  For more information, please visit
