Google?s Android Marketplace Now Offers i2Telecom?s MyGlobalTalk" Application
ATLANTA--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--i2Telecom International, Inc. ("i2Telecom®") (OTCBB: [ ITUI ]), a leading developer of award-winning patented and innovative high-quality mobile applications and services, today announced that its leading mobile phone solution, MyGlobalTalk™, has been accepted by Google for inclusion on its Android Marketplace and is now available for G1 Google Phone users have already begun signing up. By downloading the application for MyGlobalTalk™ from their G1 Google Phone, users can realize significant savings on their international and long-distance calls.
MyGlobalTalk™ is a free downloadable application that will allow Android G1 Google Phone users to place inexpensive phone calls to destinations anywhere in the world for as little as two to three cents per minute via their carriers' cellular voice networks. This contrasts sharply with the current methods in which users place regular calls via their mobile phone service providers at prices that can easily reach or exceed one dollar per minute when calling locations outside of the United States. MyGlobalTalk™ generates revenues using a prepaid subscriber model that bills for minutes of use and various premium features.
MyGlobalTalk™, i2Telecom's internally developed patent-pending technology, is a new and advanced mobile Voice over Internet Protocol ("VoIP") application that targets the wireless handset market. MyGlobalTalk™ places Internet telephony in the hands of every cellular phone user, independent of wireless carrier technology, handset manufacturer, or the type of wireless carrier voice/data plan involved. The objective is to enable mobile users to access low-cost Internet telephony communications in a completely "untethered" manner via their MyGlobalTalk™ enabled cellular phones. Once the MyGlobalTalk™application is simply downloaded onto a cellular handset, users are able to call any telephone in the world directly from their cellular phones, using VoIP technology, at a fraction of normal long-distance rates. In addition, MyGlobalTalk™ is fully functional without requiring local access to the Internet or proximity to an Internet "hotspot". Users also need not wait for the availability of dual-mode WiFi phones, because MyGlobalTalk™provides the benefits of a dual-mode phone at a fraction of the cost, using the customer's existing mobile handset.
i2Telecom's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Paul Arena commented, "Our latest version of MyGlobalTalk™ will provide G1 Google Phone customers with a first rate calling experience at a fraction of the cost. We are excited to get people started with the application, and as such, we are offering 20 minutes of free calling with the MyGlobalTalk™ application."
"During the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas last week, we were able to preview the application for attendees, who were very enthusiastic about the product. The greatest appeal of MyGlobalTalk™ among potential customers involves the fact that the application offers carrier-grade quality at VoIP rates."
