                  2Connect Reports Acquisition Letter of Intent

PLANTATION, FL (March 4, 1998) - 2Connect Express, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board:
CNTCU) today announced that it has executed a Letter of Intent whereby Bobby
Allison Cellular Systems of Florida, Inc., would merge with and into 2Connect.
Bobby Allison Cellular is a Largo, FL headquartered, privately held, cellular
and paging mall based specialty retailer, currently operating 12 stores in
Florida. The proposed merger is contingent upon, among other things, the
completion of a merger agreement between the two parties, not later than March
11, 1998. 2Connect Express, Inc. filed a voluntary petition for protection under
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code on January 12, 1998 in order to
protect the interests of its creditors and shareholders. The proposed merger
would, therefore, be incorporated in a Plan of Reorganization to be filed with
the Bankruptcy Court, and be subject to confirmation of that Plan by the Court.
2Connect has, following the Chapter 11 filing, closed its' five poorest
performing stores, begun liquidating excess inventory and reduced overhead.
Sterne, Agee & Leach, Inc. a Birmingham, Alabama based investment banking firm,
is acting as an advisor to 2Connect for the proposed merger and will further
advise 2Connect regarding the future financing of the merged entity. The merger
is proposed to take place immediately following 2Connect's emergence from the
bankruptcy proceeding.

2Connect's Chief Executive Officer, Thomas H. Hicks, commented, "the Company's
Board of Directors, management and the principals of both Bobby Allison Cellular
and Sterne Agee & Leach have worked diligently over the past several weeks to
construct a transaction that can be mutually beneficial to the creditors and
shareholders of 2Connect. Upon combining the operations of Bobby Allison and
2Connect, it is expected that the business will employ a mall based real estate
strategy, will focus on the core wireless, paging and telephone categories and
will be led by the current principals of Bobby Allison Cellular. The proposed
merger with Bobby Allison Cellular, if completed, will provide quality real
estate, management, and critical mass to give 2Connect the opportunity to
prosper and grow. The Company has begun a search for attractive mall locations
in Florida and the southeastern United States."

2Connect Express, Inc. is a specialty retailer and direct, consultative marketer
of communications related products and services under the name "2Connect,
America's Total Communications Store". 2Connect is the first independent
retailer and direct sales provider offering one stop shopping for communications
related products and services to the individual and business community. The
