  Power Direct - Investing in the Making of New Market Leaders Internet  Strategies That Change Traditional Markets
  TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 25, 1999--Power Direct's (OTC BB: PWDR)  Recent Letter of Intent to make a substantial investment in LANSource Technologies Inc. has propelled it into the Internet marketplace. As a result of the new funding, LANSource will be able to deliver big on their Internet Fax for ISP/NSP (Internet Service Providers / Network Service Providers) strategy launched in early January 1999.
  According to LANSource President Marc Bisnaire, ''The ISP/NSP will play a key role in the future corporate network, where corporate LAN's are enhanced by ISP provided services. This service will be equally appealing to SOHO and global enterprises alike.''
  LANSource's ISP Internet Fax strategy represents a paradigm shift in the LAN fax server industry by eliminating the need for the traditional fax server on the corporate LAN. Businesses, from the biggest enterprises to the smallest SOHO, can outsource their fax operations to their ISP -- all while saving on long distance calls. For the ISP this means they have a service they can sell to their existing client base.
  ''When a paradigm shift happens in an industry this usually means new market leaders and exponential growth opportunities'' sites Jack Sha, President of Power Direct Inc. He adds, ''LANSource's newly released technology is amazing because it is a true open system architecture that combines both the Internet Control Network Software and a plethora of on-ramp software ideally suited to the business market. This combination will allow it to quickly dominate this new and growing market sector.
  ''As a supplier to ISP's, LANSource is strategically positioned to be the key player in Fax over IP solution. Fax over IP is happening now, and LANSource intends to leverage its close relationships with industry leaders such as 3Com, IBM, Digi, Brooktrout, Dialogic to expand the world finest Virtual Fax Network'' says Bisnaire. ''We are going to put our award winning ''Fax to:'' button on every desktop and make the fax as transparent as e-mail'' he states.
  LANSource is a solid, dynamic market driven company with the management and the experience to execute this strategy. This investment enables this market savvy and technology rich company to better implement their vision. With companies such as 3Com and IBM currently working with LANSource, as well as licensing their software the ability to be the market leader is well within reach.
