NEWS FACTS

RideCharge (http://www.ridecharge.com/) and The Executive Transportation Group (http://www.executivecharge.com/) (ETG) today announced the release of Taxi Magic for iPhone and Blackberry (http://www.taximagic.com/) for New York City (http://www.ridecharge.com/s/ny-new-york/taxi-sedan-limo-shuttle).New York City residents now have access to the innovative iPhone and Blackberry technology that thousands of passengers in major cities such as San Francisco, Chicago and Los Angeles began using earlier this year.

Taxi Magic solves the biggest hassle in getting around New York: booking a car that will actually show up right where you want it, rain or shine. It is the only mobile tool that allows New Yorkers to book a car for immediate pickup, anywhere in Manhattan, and have it arrive in 20 minutes or less, eliminating the need to search for a cab on the street during rush hour.

The magic is revolutionary technology that connects passengers's iPhone or Blackberry directly to black car computer dispatch systems, letting passengers summon a car with the tap of a button: instantly, for immediate pickup, on demand. Taxi Magic provides instant confirmation and updates through the iPhone or Blackberry with the car number and driver'ss estimated time of arrival, eliminating the uncertainty of when you'sll be picked up.

Taxi Magic directly connects passengers with leading Executive Transportation Group New York black car brands including BlueLine, Avalon, NY One, Love, Bell, and ETG Green -- the popular hybrid service -- totaling over 1,600 cars.

iPhone users can download the Taxi Magic application from iTunes (http://ax.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/browserRedirecturl=itms%253A%252F%252Fax.itunes.apple.com%252FWebObjects%252FMZStore.woa%252Fwa%252FviewSoftware%253Fid%253D299226386%2526mt%253D8).
