            PromulGate(TM) Technology Allows Dialup Internet Users
         To Access Information While Signing on to the World Wide Web

    DENVER, April 17 /PRNewswire/ -- RMI.NET, Inc. (Nasdaq: RMII), a national
e-commerce and connectivity company, and The DelFin Project(TM), Inc.
announced today a partnership in which RMI.NET will be the first commerce
service provider (CSP) to license DelFin's patented "latent-time" technology,
which provides dialup consumers with information as they access the World Wide
Web.

    Currently, dialup Internet consumers face up to 45 seconds or more of
"down time" while their connections are confirmed and completed to the
Internet.  Through DelFin's PromulGate(TM) technology, RMI.NET will offer its
customers information or a standardized start page within seconds of starting
the log-on process.
    This technology will allow dialup consumers to better use their time by
providing them with virtually immediate access to news, weather reports, stock
quotes, sports highlights, targeted advertising or other information as they
log on.
    "PromulGate is an ad delivery system that offers our dialup customers a
chance to view something meaningful during the log-on process, rather than a
blank screen," said Douglas H. Hanson, chairman and CEO for RMI.NET.
"PromulGate also provides RMI.NET with an opportunity to provide additional
marketing services to its business customers, and to generate additional
revenue for our shareholders."
    "Our PromulGate technology is an excellent venue for those looking for new
ways to reach millions of Internet users, such as advertisers or e-commerce
retailers," said Michael Makar, president for the DelFin Project.  "We are
particularly pleased to have RMI.NET as the first national ISP, a commerce
solutions provider, to license this technology, because of its large customer
base and geographic reach.  RMI.NET will be an excellent candidate for showing
the value-added capabilities of our product."
    PromulGate technology supports HTML, Flash, AVI, Quicktime(TM) and
virtually all of the browser technology available on the market today, which
in turn means that it can be used by the vast majority of the nation's more
than 35 million dialup customers.  The content can be targeted in a number of
different ways, based on consumer interest, geographic location, or type of
message desired.  This technology helps to better personalize the online
experience for consumers.
    The technology does not slow down the log-on process, and it already has
passed rigorous performance testing and user experience evaluation by ZDTag,
the Ziff-Davis Testing and Analysis Group.  Consumers can quickly move on to
other areas of interest away from the PromulGate message once their log-on has
been completed.
    RMI.NET is integrating PromulGate technology into its AdAdapt(TM)
web-based advertising application service, and with PrivaSeek Inc.'s
Persona(TM), a "first-to-market" solution that allows business and residential
consumers to control the content they receive from Internet.  All of the
technology is designed to allow the end-use better control over their Internet
environment.
