MediaREADY, Inc. Engages China Direct, Inc. to Assist the Company with
its Plan to Enhance its Business through Acquisitions

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., May 23, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MediaREADY, Inc. (OTCBB: MRED), a provider of innovative interactive, media-convergent entertainment devices, announced today that it has engaged China Direct, Inc. (OTCBB: CHND), a diversified management and consulting company for Chinese entities, to assist MediaREADY in its efforts to diversify through possible acquisitions of synergistic technology businesses.  

MediaREADY intends to pursue an acquisition strategy in China that will focus on acquiring a Chinese entity that is currently generating substantial revenues and has achieved operational profitability.  MediaREADY will utilize China Direct’s expertise to formulate an acquisition strategy, screen potential acquisition candidates and develop a plan which management believes will enhance the Company’s overall position in the equity marketplace.  While the Company currently intends to continue the pursuit of its media operations, management will continuously evaluate its business objectives and strategies as its diversification plan unfolds.  

Jeffrey Harrell, CEO of MediaREADY, explained, “We believe this strategy will enable the Company to capitalize on opportunities brought forth by China Direct as we continue to pursue our current business model.  While management is committed to continuing in our current business model, we understand the need to build assets and business potential through diversification.  We believe this diversification program will help us achieve that objective.”

Mr. Harrell further explained, “With over 1.3 billion people, China is the world’s most populous country and the world’s fastest-growing economy over the past 25 years.  With GDP output of over $2.23 trillion in 2005, China has overtaken France and Great Britain to become the world’s fourth largest economy trailing only the U.S., Japan and Germany.”

Mr. Harrell concluded, “The reason we have decided to pursue a course in China is that we believe we can acquire a Chinese company at a very attractive valuation based on net tangible assets as opposed to earnings multiples.   The candidates we are targeting in China are operationally profitable and have tremendous potential for growth.”
