                Approval of Merger with QuaTech, Inc.

    GARDEN GROVE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 13, 2006--DPAC
Technologies Corp. (OTCBB:DPAC), and QuaTech, Inc. (www.quatech.com)
today announced that they are utilizing the Altman Group to solicit
shareholder votes in connection with their planned merger. A
shareholders meeting has been scheduled for February 23, 2006 at which
the votes for the proposed merger, and other proposals will be
recorded. DPAC must obtain votes in favor of the merger from more than

shares, it has the same effect as voting against the proposed merger.
Shareholders are urged to vote their shares as soon as possible.

been filed with and declared effective by the SEC. The materials were
mailed to shareholders on or about January 24, 2006 to shareholders of
record on January 4, 2006. The Altman Group will seek to assist
shareholders in recording their votes on the proposals. Proxies may be
voted on the internet, by telephone, or by mail.

diversion of management attention could negatively impact results. The
parties need additional financing to complete the transactions as
envisioned. Such financing may not be available on favorable terms,
and if available may result in issuance of warrants and additional
dilution to holders of DPAC common stock. Also, there can be no

control, in that voting control of DPAC would be transferred to a
former principal shareholder of QuaTech. Other factors that affect
DPAC's business include, but are not limited to, the degree of market
acceptance of our existing and planned wireless connectivity products,
future business opportunities with these products, protection of
licensed technology or proprietary rights, risks of litigation, our
need for additional financing in order to realize our opportunities,
other challenges related to completing our proposed merger with
QuaTech, Inc., further challenges in subsequently combining our
operations with QuaTech, Inc.'s own, and general market and economic
