NewspaperDirect Introduces ND Press 7-Day Trial

ORLANDO, FL--(Marketwire - June 26, 2007) - HITEC 2007 (Booth 215) -- NewspaperDirect Inc. announced a new online subscription portal for ND Press, with available 7-day free trial and new flexible 3-, 6- and 12-month subscription plans. The new portal enables hoteliers to easily and instantly print full-content daily newspapers onsite and on-demand from among hundreds of available titles.

ND Press originally launched in November 2005 and, with over 800 installations worldwide, is NewspaperDirect's most successful print-on-demand service offering. Since the release of the online portal in March 2007, more than 30 of the world's most luxurious properties have subscribed to the service online, including Grand America Hotel (Utah), Lemuria Resort of Praslin (Seychelles), Turtle Bay Resort (Hawaii), and Shangri-la Hotel, Changchun (China), which now all offer their guests their choice of same-day newspapers.

ND Press provides a choice of more than 500 national and international newspapers and magazines from 67 countries in 36 languages, including Los Angeles Times, Daily Mail, Yomiuri Shimbun, The Boston Globe, Le Figaro, The Globe and Mail, Clarin, Sydney Morning Herald, and Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.

"ND Press has been very well received by hoteliers because it provides them with an easy and fast way to enhance the overall guest experience," said Richard Miller, vice president of sales and marketing at NewspaperDirect. "After completing a simple online subscription form, hotels can immediately start printing their guests' hometown newspapers on their existing printers, without capital investment or setup fees."

ND Press offers flexible pricing plans which adapt to seasonal demands, and with the free trial, hotels now have an opportunity to test the system with their staff and guests before upgrading to a 3-, 6- or 12-month subscription plan.
