Paradigm's Destinator-TM At Radio Shack

TORONTO--Nov. 26, 2001--Paradigm Advanced Technologies, Inc., (OTCBB:PRAV - news) announces that Radio Shack Canada (Div. Intertan Canada Limited ITN-NYSE) today placed an initial order for their Destinator(TM) GPS-based navigation system. The Destinator(TM) product will be sold through Radio Shack Canada's 'Gear & Gadgets' hi-tech showcase at stores across the country for CDN $499.00 retail. Product will be shipping immediately. Radio Shack Canada operates nearly 900 retail outlets with over 2300 employees.

A Radio Shack Canada senior technology executive expressed enthusiasm saying, ``Destinator(TM) provides a cutting edge navigation solution for the business as well as casual user, with exceptional features and ease of use.'' ``Destinator(TM) is a perfect fit for Radio Shack's hi-tech savvy customer,'' he said; adding, ``With the brisk growth of PocketPC based PDA's in the market, I expect this product will do very well.''

Brian Levy, CEO of Radio Shack Canada (Div. Intertan Canada Limited), said ``Destinator(TM) was simple to install, and worked flawlessly providing surprising features with accurate detail. This is a quality product, which we are proud to offer our customers.''

Destinator(TM) was voted Pocket PC Magazine's prestigious People's Choice Award, merely three months after its introduction and was chosen 'Best Product' of its kind in the GPS category, by outperforming seven other established competitors.

The Destinator(TM) navigation system provides navigation assistance to travelers throughout North America. Destinator(TM) allows users to effortlessly navigate by providing real-time turn-by-turn voice instructions in either English, French or Spanish that guide the user to a destination without having to glance at the Destinator's(TM) map readout. Visual guidance is also available in real-time on dynamically updated maps of the area. The Destinator's(TM) GPS unit keeps up with the user's changing speeds and varied terrain while continuously maintaining the system's accuracy to within 30 feet.

Quality Navtech(TM) map data for all of Canada and the United States are included. Additionally, features such as RouteUSA(TM) enable seamless navigation from coast to coast (within Canada and the USA) along with an extensive points of interest database, which rounds out Destinator(TM) as the product of choice in its category, with no comparable competition on features and ease of use.

``The opportunity to market and sell Destinator(TM) through a retail chain of stores such as Radio Shack Canada represents a great step towards establishing this product as the de facto standard in the navigation industry,'' said Eduardo Guendelman, Paradigm's President and CEO. ``We are excited about creating a relationship with Radio Shack Canada and see it as a valuable opportunity especially for the Christmas sales season. We welcome Radio Shack Canada to our growing list of quality retail partners.''
