NOTE TO EDITORS: The Following Is an Investment Opinion Being Issued by Market Pulse.

ATLANTA, GA--(Marketwire - December 3, 2007) - Market Pulse News Alert for this AM, Stocks to Watch are: Zecotek Photonics Inc. (TSX-V: ZMS), XM Satellite Radio Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: XMSR), Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. (NASDAQ: SIRI) and Countrywide Financial Corp. (NYSE: CFC).

Investors need to be watching Zecotek Photonics Inc. (TSX-V: ZMS) this AM! Zecotek Photonics is a photonics company that develops high-performance crystals, photo detectors, medical lasers, optical imaging and 3D display technologies for commercial applications in the medical diagnostics and high-tech industry. The company has three distinct operating divisions: imaging, lasers and 3D display and labs located in Canada, Singapore and Russia. Zecotek has developed two significant photonic technologies with the potential to revolutionize the $15 billion medical diagnostics industry. With core competencies in lasers, optoelectronics and crystal growth, Zecotek's Singapore Lab is focused on introducing creative laser solutions to this growing industry. The annual revenue generated by the US medical laser systems market alone, has more than doubled in the past five years and reached $2.5 billion in 2006. ZMS has successfully developed a compact, color 3D display prototype that offers multiple viewers with true volumetric visualization and exhibit depth and parallax over a wide viewing angle. The unique applications of photonics continue to emerge. Those which are established as economically important applications for semiconductor photonic devices include optical data recording, fiber optic telecommunications, laser printing (based on xerography), displays, and optical pumping of high-power lasers. The potential applications of photonics are virtually unlimited and include chemical synthesis, medical diagnostics, on-chip data communication, laser defense, and fusion energy to name several interesting additional examples. Zecotek has a proven track record of securing licensing agreements with industry leaders. The company is creating shareholder value by commercializing novel, patented and patent-pending photonic technologies directly and through strategic alliances and joint ventures with multinational OEMs, distributors and other industry leaders. ZMS has partnered with the University of Washington to develop a proprietary PET/MRI scanning device, which has the potential to set a new standard in medical imaging. Northrop Grumman has signed a 20-year exclusive agreement to license ZMS' LFS scintillation crystal material. Zecotek recently announced that it has signed a letter of intent with Fujikura Ltd. of Japan to negotiate terms of a proposed business partnership which would feature the manufacture and distribution of certain technologies and products, including Zecotek's new line of fiber lasers and a detector block consisting of Zecotek's proprietary solid-state photo detectors and LFS scintillation crystals. The company is transitioning from a purely research and development company to commercializing its key photonics technology. ZMS is poised to become a significant player in the photonics and medical diagnostics industry! Zecotek Photonics just had excellent news out in a press release before today's opening bell announcing that it demonstrates 32" 3D display to industry and engages Insight Media to advise on their market entry! Investors need to go to the company's website www.zecotek.com and review its exciting technology's potential! Investors should be watching this one closely!

Zecotek Photonics Inc. (TSX-V: ZMS) formerly Zecotek Medical Systems Inc., today announced it has initiated demonstrations of the 32" commercial prototype of its proprietary Real-Time 3D2D Display System©, the first 3D display offering multiple viewers true volumetric visualization while exhibiting depth and parallax over a wide viewing angle. The demonstrations have started and are scheduled over the next several weeks at the Company's Vancouver laboratories for a select group of representatives of potential industry partners.

Zecotek also announced that it has engaged Insight Media, a leading publishing and consulting firm focused on the display industry, to provide advice and guidance on a market entry strategy for the display system.

"We have reached a critical milestone in the commercialization of our 3D display technology with the 32" prototype," said Dr. A.F. Zerrouk, Chairman, President, and CEO of Zecotek. "Our system delivers true 3D over a wide viewing angle, in high resolution color and establishes a new benchmark in the 3D industry. Our next step is to select strategic partners in the manufacture and distribution of what we feel is a new and potentially revolutionary display technology and we look forward to working with Insight Media to leverage our market position."

Zecotek's Real-Time 3D2D Display System is a novel, proprietary display system for the visualization of images and data. Based on the autostereoscopic principle, but with substantial patent pending innovation, it represents a new generation of 3D displays. The 32" commercial prototype is designed for multi-user, multi-view with freedom of movement. It delivers full color, high resolution images in both 3D and 2D mode (greater than 1024x768), has superior image dynamic range in 2D mode and the system is compatible with existing applications. Anteryon BV of the Netherlands produced the key screen component of the 3D display.

"We are very impressed with the high resolution, wide viewing angle and multi-viewer features of Zecotek's 3D display system," said Geoff Bertenshaw, Chief Executive Officer of Anteryon. "We are pleased to contribute to the production of the first commercial prototype in what we see as a truly breakthrough product. We look forward to building on our strategic partnership with Zecotek."

About 3D Displays

The introduction of software tools for rendering 3D images, together with increases in processing power, sparked a revolution in computer imaging in the mid-1990s. This established a new industry and several new multi-billion dollar companies emerged. Within a decade the ability to visualize and manipulate digital media in 3D has become an irreplaceable tool for medical research, design, engineering, aerospace, architecture, media, geology and logistics -- in fact in all fields where 3D offers unmatched utility, novelty, stimulus to creativity and enhancement of productivity. However while software development and increases in processing power initiated the 3D revolution, display hardware still lags behind and the majority of 3D visualization remains a software simulation in a 2D screen environment.

This lag of hardware development has produced a significant, pent-up demand for devices which can provide a full 3D volumetric experience, but with the caveat of also requiring the clarity, integrity, viewing angles and broad applicability at a competitive price. While there are a number of devices and screens currently available and in development which claim to provide 3D experience, none fully meet these key requirements. The 3D display market is predicted to grow to more than US$1 billion by 2010 (iSuppli).
