MINNEAPOLIS, May 5, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wireless Ronin Technologies, Inc.
(Nasdaq:RNIN), a Minneapolis-based digital signage provider, continues to
provide RoninCast(r) software and supporting services for the ongoing growth of
the Thomson Reuters Infopoint digital signage network as it reached 250 displays
in over 40 countries in early 2009.
"Thomson Reuters Infopoint has proven to be a great product for news and
information distribution to the out-of-home market and we are very pleased to be
a contributing factor in its substantial growth over the past two years," said
James (Jim) C. Granger, president and CEO of Wireless Ronin Technologies. "Along

To date, the Infopoint network totals more than 250 indoor and outdoor displays
of varying size including the world's longest LED news ticker located in London.
