Company to show prototype NetWinder at PC Expo booth # 3454

Ottawa, Canada - June 27, 2000 - Rebel.com Inc., a leading supplier of
business networking technologies, announced its intention to adopt
Transmeta's Crusoe processor family in a future line of residential and
small business gateways that will add to its NetWinder OfficeServer line of
products.

"What we are announcing today is that we intend to utilize Transmeta's
Crusoe processor family for a family of residential and small business
gateway products," said Michael Mansfield, president of Rebel.com.
"Rebel.com selected Crusoe based on a number of factors, including its
ability to work in a small fanless enclosure, its low power consumption, its
high performance and its compatibility with industry standards. These are
very important strengths of Transmeta's Crusoe processor family which
differentiated it from other processor architectures we evaluated."

"At our booth at PC Expo, we will be demonstrating a seamless wireless
mobile internet computing environment consisting of web slates and
ultra-light laptop computers connected through a residential gateway back to
an ISP," said Steve Goldstein, VP of Business Development at Transmeta.  "We
foresee this multi-platform architecture moving into homes and small
businesses starting later this year.  Rebel.com is developing a family of
Crusoe-based gateways that fully support this environment, and we have
worked closely with them during their development.  Rebel.com will be
joining us in our booth # 3454 at PC Expo in New York, June 27 - 29, 2000,
showing a prototype of their upcoming Crusoe-based gateway."
