LOS ANGELES, June 11, 2008 � NxTV, Inc.,®  completed installation of its High Definition IP Video On Demand (HD IPVOD), TV-on-demand and wired laptop solution at the recently opened, Five-Star new build, �The Mansion on Peachtree� in Atlanta, Georgia, it was announced today.   NxTV is the first and largest provider of IPVoD and interactive digital IP-based in-room entertainment and technology solutions in the global hospitality industry.

The mixed-use property, managed by Rosewood Hotels and Resorts, is the fifth Rosewood project in five years in which NxTV installed its converged network solution.  This will give operators the ability to merge operations, entertainment and communications, and will let consumers blend services between PCs and TVs, and mirror their in-home entertainment systems.

Other Rosewood properties jointly implemented with NxTV include the San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara; California; Rosewood Mayakoba in Riviera Maya, Mexico; and Rosewood Crescent Hotel in Dallas.

�There are two areas we see as very compelling in the NxTV offering: the converging of the Internet experience so the guest has one charge but three entry types of experience � Internet, TV, wired and wireless,� said Fred Crespo, Corporate Director of Information Systems with Rosewood Hotels & Resorts.  �Also, the quality of high-definition content now available in the lineup is a strong benefit to our guests.�
