This information statement (the "Information Statement") is furnished to the shareholders of Kanakaris Wireless, a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), with respect to certain proposed corporate actions of the Company (the "Proposals"). This information is first being provided to shareholders on or about November 17, 2003. The Proposals have been set out in four (4) corporate Resolutions already approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, and expected to be passed by a majority of the outstanding shares of our capital stock at the earliest opportunity following full compliance with all applicable securities filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission under Rule 14C-101, and the passage of applicable waiting periods with respect to the implementation of such Resolutions. The Proposals which are the subject of this Information Statement are as follows: 1. That the Articles of Incorporation of the Company be amended and restated in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Resolutions, and specifically to amend --------- Article First of the Articles of Incorporation to read in its entirety as follows: "FIRST: The name of the corporation is: "Wi-Fi TV, Inc."; 2. That the Company's Articles of Incorporation be amended and restated in the form attached as Exhibit A attached to the Resolutions and, specifically, --------- that Article Second of the Articles of Incorporation be amended to read in its entirety as follows: "SECOND: This Corporation is authorized to issue two classes of stock, which are voting Common Stock and Preferred Stock. The shares of Common Stock which this Corporation is authorized to issue shall have a par value of one-tenth of one cent ($.001) per share and the number of shares of Common Stock this Corporation is authorized to issue is two hundred fifty million (250,000,000) shares. The shares of Preferred Stock this Corporation is authorized to issue shall have a par value of One Cent ($.01) per share and the number of shares of Preferred Stock this Corporation is authorized to issue is one million nine hundred (1,000,900) shares. Of such amount, the Corporation hereby designates 2 and establishes two (2) series of Preferred Stock, namely Class A Convertible Preferred Stock and Class B Convertible Preferred Stock. The number of shares of Class A Convertible Preferred Stock the Corporation is authorized to issue shall be one million (1,000,000) shares and the number of shares of Class B Convertible Preferred Stock the Corporation is authorized to issue shall be nine hundred (900) shares. Each share of Preferred Stock shall have the respective rights and privileges designated on the Certificate of Designation attached as Exhibit A hereto. All remaining shares of Preferred Stock not so specifically - ---------- designated may be designated in the future by action of the Board of Directors of the Corporation and otherwise in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes. The Board of Directors, within any limits and restrictions stated, may determine or alter the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock."; 3. That the shareholders ratify the determination of the Board of Directors to effectuate a reverse stock split of the Common Stock of the Company such that, for every fifty (50) shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the reverse stock split, there will be one (1) share issued and outstanding immediately following the reverse stock split. 4. That the Amended and Restated Bylaws, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B to the Resolutions, be adopted and approved as the Bylaws of the ---------- Corporation from and after the date of their authorization by the shareholders of the Company. A prior Information Statement on a Preliminary Schedule 14C was filed by us on September 10, 2003. That Information Statement contained, among other things, information regarding a proposed sale of assets by LAIN International, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of our Company, to Venture Media, Inc. ("VMCI"), however our Board of Directors has recently received word that VMCI is unable to complete the transaction as proposed, and so that combination is no longer a --------- proposed Resolution to be adopted by corporate action and, accordingly, all references to the aborted transaction with VMCI have been eliminated from this Revised Information Statement. If and when a form of business combination involving the stock or assets of our Company (including any subsidiary of our Company) becomes the subject of a shareholder proposal, a subsequent filing on Schedule 14-C will be circulated for that purpose at that time. ONLY THE COMPANY'S SHAREHOLDERS OF RECORD AT THE CLOSE OF BUSINESS ON NOVEMBER 10, 2003 (THE "RECORD DATE") ARE ENTITLED TO NOTICE OF THE PROPOSALS. PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS WHO, AS OF THE RECORD DATE, COLLECTIVELY HELD IN EXCESS OF 50% OF THE COMPANY'S OUTSTANDING SHARES ENTITLED TO VOTE ON THE PROPOSALS HAVE INDICATED THAT THEY WILL VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE PROPOSALS. MOST OF THESE SHARES 3 ARE HELD BY PERSONS WHO ARE ALSO DIRECTORS OF OUR COMPANY, AND HAVE THEREFORE ALREADY APPROVED THE MATTERS COVERED BY THE PROPOSALS. AS A RESULT, THE PROPOSALS ARE EXPECTED TO BE APPROVED WITHOUT THE AFFIRMATIVE VOTE OF ANY OTHER SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY. THIS ACTION IS EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN NOT LESS THAN TWENTY (20) DAYS FROM THE MAILING OF THIS INFORMATION STATEMENT, BUT AS SOON THEREAFTER AS PRACTICABLE. This Information Statement is accompanied by the Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002, which has been previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We believe that such majority will vote in favor of the Proposals. DISSENTERS' RIGHTS OF APPRAISAL There is no provision in the Nevada General Corporation law, or our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, providing our stockholders with dissenters' rights of appraisal to demand payment in cash for their shares of Common Stock in connection with the implementation of any of the Proposals described in this Information Statement. 7 VOTING SECURITIES AND PRINCIPAL HOLDERS THEREOF The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of shares of the Company's common stock as of November 12, 2003. As of such date, the Company had 245,337,779 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, and no other shares issued and outstanding. The table below identifies all shares of the Company's common stock and preferred stock that were owned by (i) all shareholders known to the Company to be beneficial owners of more than 5% of the Company's outstanding stock of each class; (ii) each director and executive officer of the Company; and (iii) all officers and directors of the Company as a group, in each case as of November 12, 2003.

Each share of common stock is entitled to one (1) vote, and each share of Class A Preferred Stock is entitled to one hundred (100) non-cumulative votes per share. PROPOSAL 1 - CHANGE OF CORPORATE NAME Our Board of Directors has determined that it would be in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders to change the name of the Company to Wi-Fi TV, Inc., as a reflection of the state of our business and the industry generally, which our management views as the wireless distribution of media content through the Internet. While we could merely amend our Articles of Incorporation to effect the change of our name, management feels that due to a large number of prior amendments our Articles are difficult for our shareholders and others to read and understand and, accordingly, we are restating them into a single 9 document for ease of reference. The Amendment will become effective upon its filing with the Nevada Secretary of State. We anticipate filing the Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State in substantially the form attached as Exhibit ------- A to this Information Statement on or before December 21, 2003. PROPOSAL 2 - INCREASING OUR AUTHORIZED COMMON STOCK As discussed below, because we have reached the maximum amount of common stock which we are authorized to issue, it is necessary for us to increase the amount of our shares of common stock which are available to investors. As we currently have authorized 250,000,000 shares of common stock, if we were to increase this amount to a larger number, our management felt that the amount of shares of common stock which we would have authorized would be unwieldy and difficult to manage. Accordingly, we will be effectuating a reverse stock split of our common stock as discussed below. Under Nevada corporate law, however, a reverse stock split of our outstanding common stock will also reduce our authorized stock by an equivalent amount. For that reason, we must amend our Articles of Incorporation to raise the authorized amount of our common stock subsequent to the reverse stock split. Management has recommended increasing the amount of our authorized common stock back to its original level of 250,000,000 shares. While we could merely amend our Articles of Incorporation to effect the change of our name, management feels that due to a large number of prior amendments our Articles are difficult for our shareholders and others to read and understand and, accordingly, we are restating them into a single document for ease of reference. The Amendment will become effective upon its filing with the Nevada Secretary of State. We anticipate filing the Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State in substantially the form attached as Exhibit A to this Information --------- Statement on or before December 21, 2003. PROPOSAL 3 - RATIFICATION OF REVERSE STOCK SPLIT As stated above, we have reached the maximum number of shares of common stock which we are authorized to issue. However, we have a need to continue to raise capital through the sale of our stock and, including our obligation to maintain a reserve of authorized but unissued stock against the conversion rights of several investors who have purchased convertible promissory notes from us. Our Board of Directors has approved us effectuating a reverse stock split of our common stock, and Proposal Number 3 is for our shareholders to ratify this approval. The effect of the reverse stock split will be to reduce by a factor of fifty the number of outstanding shares of our common stock while maintaining the current numbers of authorized and issued Class A Preferred Stock and authorized Preferred Stock. Upon the filing with and acceptance by the Nevada Office of the Secretary of State of the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation discussed in Proposal Number 2 above, the result will be to create a fifty-fold increase in the amount of capital stock which will then be available for issuance to our convertible note investors and others desiring to purchase our common stock. Our board of directors believes that this effective increase in our available capital stock is in the best interests of our company and its stockholders because it will make available additional shares of common stock that may be 10 used for future offerings, as well as acquisitions, incentive stock programs and other corporate purposes. The available additional shares of common stock may be issued from time to time as our Board of Directors determines, without further action of the stockholders. Although our Board of Directors has no current plans to use such shares to entrench present management, it may be able to use the available additional shares as a defensive tactic against hostile takeover attempts. However, to our management's knowledge, no hostile takeover attempts currently are threatened. The Proposal will not reduce the number of outstanding shares of Class A Preferred Stock nor will it reduce the 100 non-cumulative votes that each share of Class A Preferred Stock has, voting together as a single class with our common stock, on all matters presented for approval of our stockholders generally. This effectively will result in a twenty-fold increase in the voting power of our Class A Preferred Stock relative to the voting power of our common stock. This effective increase is intended to help ensure that the business and the creative leadership and vision of Alex Kanakaris, our Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, can continue in the future. Our common stock currently is quoted on the NASD's OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. Once the reverse stock split has been completed, management believes that the price per share at which our stock may be traded could increase, although there can be no assurance that any such increase will occur. We believe that the Proposal, if adopted, may make our common stock more attractive to members of the investing public who may view low-priced stocks as unattractive or who may, as a matter of policy, be precluded from purchasing our common stock due to its low price. However, because our future performance depends upon various business and economic factors that cannot be predicted, there can be no assurance that this Proposal will enhance the marketability of our common stock or that it will not reduce the marketability of our common stock. We anticipate effectuating the reverse stock split on or before December 21, 2003. PROPOSAL 4 - AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT OF OUR BYLAWS Our Bylaws must be amended to reflect the new name of our company, Wi-Fi TV, Inc., once it is formally changed through the filing with and acceptance by the Office of the Secretary of State of Nevada (see Proposal Number 1 above). While we could merely amend our Bylaws to reflect the change of our name, management feels that due to a large number of prior amendments our Bylaws are difficult for our shareholders and others to read and understand and, accordingly, we are restating them into a single document for ease of reference. Our Bylaws are an internal document maintained by the Secretary of our corporation, and do not require filing with the Secretary of State of Nevada in order to become operative. We anticipate effectuating the amendment and restatement of our Bylaws in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B to this Information Statement on or before December 21, 2003. --------- 11 AVAILABLE INFORMATION The Company is subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and in accordance with the Exchange Act we file reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").
