         NOVIS SELECTS AMINO FOR PORTUGAL'S FIRST IPTV SERVICE ROLLOUT


Amino Technologies plc ("Amino"; stock code: AMO), the Cambridge based broadband
network software and systems company, announces it has been selected by Novis, a
major Portuguese telco, for a residential service to be branded as 'Clix
Smartv'.

A commercial test launch with AmiNET110 set-top boxes is scheduled for December
2005 in Lisbon and Porto, with full commercial deployment planned for 2006 in
all major cities. The service will include an electronic programme guide (EPG),
Video on Demand (VOD), and a personalised choice of channels. The service will
offer 50 channels for the test launch, increasing to 100 when the commercial
deployment commences.

"We are very pleased to be working with Amino to bring IPTV to Portugal for the
first time" explained Susanna Barbato, Managing Director of IPTV services for
Novis. "Amino's proven interoperability and excellent track record made them the
obvious choice for us. With a strong IPTV offering, we expect to create a large
subscriber base in Portugal over the coming years".

"The AmiNET110 has proved to be a very successful product this year on a
worldwide scale, due to the combination of award-winning design,
industry-leading software interoperability and high quality. With Novis, Amino
is well positioned in another emerging market", said Bob Giddy, Amino's CEO.
