Minneapolis, Minnesota – November 11, 2011 – More than 13% of veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan have suffered severe eye injuries that result in blindness. In recognition of this year's Veteran's Day celebration, Serotek Corporation is offering all blind veterans a lifetime subscription to its popular System Access Mobile Network (SAMNet).

SAMNet is Serotek's renowned Internet communication portal that delivers the most complete content ever assembled for the blind. With email, news, blogs, podcasts, streaming radio, described video service for thousands of movies and more, veterans will have access to a new world of communications right at their fingertips.

"For many veterans sight loss is the new battleground," says Serotek's Chief Executive Officer, Mike Calvo. ""We want to do our part to help them face the challenges ahead with the same tools and confidence they showed in service to our country."

To that end, Serotek is offering lifetime access to SAMNet for all legally blind U.S. veterans. Individuals who can provide proof of status as a legally blind veteran will be eligible for the program, which will officially kick off on December 15. In addition to the wide array of content already available on SAMNet, Serotek will further customize the service by creating chat rooms, forums and other exclusive communication channels to help facilitate networking opportunities among veterans.

To stay on top of this latest initiative, please subscribe to the SAMNet-vets mailing list, where you can learn more about SAMNet and the program specifically designed for this segment of the country's wounded warriors. You can also get an overview of SAMNet and other Serotek products, and you can begin a 7-day free trial of these products and services by visiting http://www.satogo.com. Serotek looks forward to welcoming veterans to the SAMNet community, and the company is proud to offer this simple, intuitive means of connecting with family, friends and the world.
