e.DIGITAL REPORTS HIGHER REVENUES AND REDUCED NET LOSS FOR FIRST FISCAL QUARTER

Revenues for Q1 2008 Increase 172% Over Immediately Preceding Quarter - - Total 72% of Prior Fiscal Year Revenues as eVU™ is Accepted by Major Airline Customers

(SAN DIEGO, CA, – August 14, 2007) – e.Digital Corporation (OTC: EDIG), a leading innovator of portable inflight entertainment (IFE) systems and patented flash memory-related technology, reported substantially improved revenues and a reduced net loss for its fiscal 2008 first quarter ended June 30, 2007. For the first quarter, e.Digital reported revenues of $1.30 million a significant increase from revenues of $21,000 for the first quarter of the year prior and a 172% increase over revenues of the immediately preceding quarter ended March 31, 2007. Revenue for the first quarter included quantity shipments of the Company’s eVU™ mobile entertainment system to multiple in-flight entertainment (IFE) customers including major European airlines.

e.Digital reported a gross profit of $246,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to a gross profit of $4,500 for the same period a year ago. The gross profit increase was due primarily to eVU sales in the current period whereas eVU was being developed and tested in the comparable period last year. Operating costs increased from $688,000 for fiscal Q1 2007 to $751,000 in fiscal Q1 2008 primarily due to an increase in professional services related to litigation, patent enforcement, audits, and sales commissions related to increased revenues. Net loss for the first quarter decreased by 47% to $593,000 from $1.12 million for the first quarter of the year prior. Net loss available to common stockholders for the first fiscal quarter of 2008 was $(0.00) per basic and diluted share, compared to $(0.01) per basic and diluted share for the same period last year.

e.Digital also reported that its backlog at June 30, 2007 was approximately $2.7 million with further orders and shipments expected this fiscal year. In recent years, one customer accounted for substantially all of the Company’s revenues. e.Digital is diversifying its sales with three customers accounting for 98% of first quarter fiscal 2008 revenues and further diversification is expected in future periods. To date, ten airlines have purchased the Company’s proprietary eVU as their portable entertainment system of choice making e.Digital one of the leading suppliers of dedicated portable IFE systems and services.

“In the first seven months of eVU commercial quantity deliveries, we shipped over $3 million in products and services and invested in personnel and systems to support a growing customer base,” said Will Blakeley, e.Digital’s president and chief technical officer. “This quarter, we expect patent enforcement actions to commence on our flash memory-related patent portfolio and also expect to ship over $2 million in eVU products and services with improved margins as we expand our international portable IFE business.”
