Press Release Summary: Zip provides installation infrastructure to retailers,
allowing customers to purchase and schedule installation appointments on the hour


Press Release Body: (Minneapolis, MN - June 2, 2008) - Zip Express Installation, a
new option in home electronics installation, announces the launch of its nationwide
service for electronics retailers and consumers. Zip Express provides and manages an
in-house installation infrastructure for retailers and offers consumers the first
next-day installation appointment option for major home electronic purchases made
in-store or online.

"There is currently a high volume of consumer frustration from the time they make a
major electronics purchase to the time it actually gets set up and working
properly," said Chris Mauzy, President and CEO of Zip Express. "Zip Express provides
consumers next-day installation gratification, and offers retailers a cost-effective
installation service to keep customers coming back for another seamless
purchase-to-installation experience."

Customers can take advantage of Zip Express Installation in three ways: in-store at
participating retailers, online through participating e-tailers and directly at
www.zipinstallation.com. At retail, customers simply choose an installation package
they want - with the option of next-day or five-day installation appointments - and
the service is rung up with the product purchase at checkout. Rather than wait for a
third party installer to call and schedule an appointment, the customer can call the
toll free number or visit www.zipinstallation.com immediately after purchase to
schedule a specific day and hour that is most convenient for installation.

For consumer electronics retailers, Zip Express Installation provides and manages an
in-house service and installation infrastructure for them. Offering quick
installation for customers allows for decreased return rates, as inability to
properly set up a new piece of equipment is a frequent reason for returns. As prices
for major electronic products continue to go down, Zip Express also provides
attractive margins for retailers by offering additional sales revenue on top of the
product at checkout.

In addition to being the first nationwide installation service to offer next-day
installation appointments at a specific hour, Zip Express installers take all trash
away from the job and train each customer on how the new setup works in the home.
Services include tabletop TV setup, wall and over-the-fireplace TV mounting, home
theater setup, computer and digital camera networking and furniture assembly. All
installation work done by Zip Express's more than 16,000 CE certified installers
also comes with a one-year warranty.

Zip Express Installation is currently securing retail partners and announcements of
these partnerships will be made mid-June. Installation services start at $129.95 and
can be scheduled directly online at www.zipinstallation.com.
