SIOUX FALLS SD, June 25, 2007 � LodgeNet Entertainment Corporation (NASDAQ: LNET) will showcase its IPTV (Internet Protocol TV) solution June 26-28 at HITEC 2007 in Orlando, FL. 

IPTV involves transmitting video entertainment and information over an IP network within the hotel property. LodgeNet�s complete, integrated IPTV solution utilizes the capabilities of high-speed Internet access (HSIA) and video on demand (VOD) servers along with commercial networking equipment to connect, inform and entertain guests through the in-room television as well as their own laptops and other portable media devices. 

The LodgeNet IPTV solution provides the option of including an interactive program guide that displays scheduling for up to 6 hours of programming. The new LodgeNet IP solution has a similar look and feel to its industry-leading SIGNETURE HDTVSM platform to support a consistent guest experience for brands across hotels with different platforms. This feature will help hoteliers meet the expectations of travelers who enjoy similar convenience and control from their home cable or satellite providers. 

LodgeNet�s IPTV solution will be featured in Booth 961 at the Orange County Convention Center.
