(IRVINE, CA) -- LMKI Inc. (OTCBB: LMKI - news), a leading broadband communications solutions provider, announced today that it provided high-speed connectivity to the Playboy (NYSE: PLA - news) Hugh Hefner Pajama Birthday Party and Webcast.
The connection was delivered to the Internet through LMKI's Los Angeles network Point of Presence (POP) co-located within the Level 3 Communications (NASDAQ: LVLT - news) Los Angeles gateway.
Users from around the world participated in this exclusive event, which featured multi-media broadcasts live from the Playboy Mansion on Saturday, April 8, 2000, where Mr. Hefner celebrated his birthday with a swinging, star-studded Pajama Party. The event can be viewed at the Playboy website's (http://www.playboy.com) archive.
``LMKI once again provided superior connectivity to another Playboy.com event, and we are extremely pleased with LMKI's services,'' said Craig Hutler, technical producer of online events for Playboy.com.
``Another successful event, following LMKI's participation at the Playmate Expo, Millennium Playmate Luncheon, New Years Eve Web cast, and the Mardi Gras Web cast marks a continuing business relationship with Playboy.com, and provides further evidence that our solutions and service are meeting our customers needs,'' said Bryan L. Turbow, president and chief technology officer of LMKI.
