ZeroG Wireless Targets Smart Grid Applications With Its Low-Power Embedded Wi-Fi

U-SNAP Standardized Module a Key Technology

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- ZeroG Wireless, Inc., an innovator
in low-power embedded Wi-Fi design, today announced that it has joined the
U-SNAP (Utility Smart Network Access Port) Alliance and has early availability
of U-SNAP modules, simplifying the process for smart-grid customers to "just
add Wi-Fi" to their applications. U-SNAP's modular form factor, coupled with
ZeroG Wireless' low-power embedded Wi-Fi, enables a whole new class of
connected thermostats, appliances, power meters and many other home automation
products to be brought to market with seamless Internet connectivity.

"ZeroG's Wi-Fi I/O products provide a secure, cost-effective, and mature IP
solution for our smart grid customers," said David Friedman, senior director,
strategic marketing, ZeroG Wireless. "Joining the U-SNAP Alliance and
developing U-SNAP modules was a natural fit for us because it offers another
simple means for our customers to just add Wi-Fi to their products."

"We are very pleased to have ZeroG as a U-SNAP member," noted Jon Rappaport,
Chairman of the U-SNAP Alliance. "A compelling array of U-SNAP enabled
products will be coming to market later this year and next, creating a broad
ecosystem of Smart Grid ready, Energy Aware devices. ZeroG's Wi-Fi modules
provide a perfect example of the future-proof flexibility of the U-SNAP
standard, while simplifying Internet connectivity and device integration."

ZeroG is currently engaged with alpha customers using its U-SNAP modules.
First products using these modules will be available in Q4'09, after which the
Company will announce availability and marketing plans around the U-SNAP
modules. For more information and to be considered for ZeroG's U-SNAP alpha
