Radstone Technology PLC
08 April 2005


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE                                               8 April 2005


                            Radstone Technology PLC
                      Acquisition of Intellectual Property
                                      And
                             Disposal of SensorCom

         Company continues development of strategic focus in key areas


Radstone Technology PLC, the world's leading independent supplier of
high-performance, embedded computer products for defence and aerospace
applications today announces two moves designed to further develop and refine
the company's strategy.  It has sold its subsidiary company, SensorCom Inc and
has also acquired, through its subsidiary DaqScribe Technology Inc.,
intellectual property (IP) from SavvyCorp.

SensorCom joined the Radstone Group as part of the acquisition of ICS Limited,
of which it was a subsidiary, in September 2003. Based in Annapolis, Maryland,
the company is a small systems integrator with a different focus to the other
elements of Radstone's embedded computing division and therefore the Board of
Radstone decided to divest the business to its current management team.  ICS
acquired SensorCom for $285K in September 2002 and it has been sold for $1.6
million.  Net assets at disposal were approximately $100K.

DaqScribe Technology is headquartered in Centennial, Colorado: the company is a
full-service solution provider for mechanical test and measurement applications
for the military, aerospace and automotive markets.  SavvyCorp offers a complete
high performance, low cost data acquisition system solution. In addition, it
offers high bandwidth signal conditioning modules packaged in 1U enclosures to
measure pressure, temperature and other sensor inputs.  DaqScribe and SavvyCorp
have worked together previously on a number of projects.  Radstone paid $167K
for the trade and assets of SavvyCorp whose President, Michael P Welch, has
joined DaqScribe.

Jeff Perrin, Chief Executive of Radstone Technology PLC commented:

"Strategically, Test and Measurement is a growth area for us and we have taken
advantage of the opportunity to acquire IP that will further strengthen our
offering in this market.  At the same time, SensorCom has been sold because it
has become apparent that the strategic fit between our core engineering
development and manufacturing businesses and SensorCom's integration business
was not ideal.  We wish the SensorCom management team every success in the
future."
