                      RADIUS ANNOUNCES REVERSE STOCK SPLIT
                                          
     Sunnyvale, Calif., March 5, 1998 - Radius Inc. (NASDAQ:RDUS) today 
announced a one for ten reverse split of its outstanding shares of Common 
Stock. This reverse split was previously approved at the annual meeting of 
its shareholders on February 11, 1998.  The reverse split will be effective 
with the close of business on March 9, 1998, and the shares will begin 
trading on a post-split basis effective on March 10, 1998.  With the 
completion of the reverse stock split the company will have approximately 
5,500,000 common shares outstanding.

     "This reverse split brings the number of shares outstanding and the 
share price to a level more consistent with companies of our size and will 
reduce the transaction costs to our shareholders," said Hank Morgan, senior 
vice president and CFO.  Morgan continued, "in addition this action will keep 
the Company in compliance with the recent changes in the continued listing 
requirements for the Nasdaq SmallCap Market which require a minimum $1 bid 
price on common stock."
