                             XETA TECHNOLOGIES SIGNS
                 PREMIUM PARTNER AGREEMENT WITH NORTEL NETWORKS


BROKEN ARROW, OK - XETA Technologies (NASDAQ:XETA), a national provider of
converged communications solutions for the enterprise marketplace, today
announced it has signed a "Premium Partner" agreement with Nortel Networks. The
Nortel Networks "Premium Partner" program--their highest level of
partnership--provides select business partners access to the broadest spectrum
of products, services and support programs. Nortel Networks is a globally
recognized leader in both voice and data technologies and is among the industry
leaders in Internet Protocol (IP) telephony.

"We are pleased to be a Nortel Networks Premium Partner," said Jack Ingram,
Chairman, CEO and President of XETA Technologies. "This partnership, in
complement with our Avaya partnership, is consistent with, and greatly enhances
the fulfillment of our vision to become the nation's premier provider of
converged communications solutions. Adding the Nortel Networks product lines
effectively doubles XETA's market reach and broadens our ability to service the
ever-changing needs of our customers," added Ingram.

Larry Patterson, Sr. Vice President of Sales and Services, stated, "With recent
advancements in technology and consolidations throughout industry, our customers
are increasingly adopting multi-vendor strategies. In today's multi-vendor
environment, it is critical to ensure that service levels are maintained,
networks operate efficiently and applications work in harmony. This new
partnership with Nortel Networks greatly enhances our ability to meet these
multi-vendor needs of the market. XETA can now provide a much greater array of
customers with a single point of contact for their converged communications
needs with a goal of lowering their operating costs and enhancing their network
management capabilities. To incorporate this additional dimension into XETA, the
initial focus will be on building our Nortel Networks capabilities and
establishing the necessary workflow processes in order to deliver the XETA
standards that our customers have come to expect."




"We enthusiastically embrace this new partnership with Nortel Networks and will
begin developing the opportunities immediately. To effectively implement this
new dimension, several new employees will be added in addition to extensive
cross training of our existing personnel. This is a very large undertaking and
we must proceed at a pace permitted by the current poor economic climate. To
begin the capability build-up, we will employ some of our own capital coupled
with a market development package supplied by Nortel Networks. Assuming a
reasonable continuation of economic conditions as they now appear, we expect to
see positive financial contribution from this effort beginning in the fourth
quarter of this calendar year," stated Ingram.
