VoIP2 Inc., a subsidiary of privately held InComm Holdings Corp., Inc. which offers unique global Voice over Internet Protocol services, today announced that it has signed a marketing contract with TigerDirect.Com to market its VoIP2 next generation telecommunications product, the «Call Box.» The «Call Box» is a Multi Media Terminal Adapter with proprietary technology and features Plug & Play simplicity for users. In addition, VoIP2 has begun offering its subscribers two industry standard setting calling plans, (1) $19.99 per month for
unlimited long distance calls anywhere in the 50 United States and Canada, and (2) $49.99 per month for unlimited anywhere in the World long distance calling.
TigerDirect.Com, a unit of publicly traded Systemax Inc. (NYSE:SYX), is a leading Internet mail-order, and brick-and-mortar retailer of computer hardware and components. TigerDirect.Com is ranked 5th in popularity of the «Shopping and Classifieds-Computers» category comprised of 336 other retailers, jumping over Gateway and CompUSA. VoIP2 will offer customers with a broadband connection an unprecedented combination of easy Plug & Play installation and cutting edge, enhanced calling features simply by using VoIP2’s Media Terminal Adapter, the «Call Box.» Customers can be assigned a virtual phone number, which is used to receive calls anywhere in the world for the price of a local phone call. Additionally, calls between VoIP2 customers completely bypass the legacy telephone network and are offered free of charge as part of the monthly service fee regardless of where the customers are located. This allows friends and family members to speak to each other free of costly per-minute rates even when they live in different parts of the world.
Other key differentiators of VoIP2’s Plug & Play Media Terminal Adapter are the internal «Smart RouterS» and its two ports (phone/fax) feature. The internal router not only allows the device to share a broadband connection with a customer’s computer, but also prioritizes voice traffic over data traffic to ensure superior quality service.
«Our subscribers can enjoy unlimited calling for $19.99 per month anywhere in the US and Canada or the incredible $49.99 per month unlimited calling to anywhere in the World. In addition to offering low cost long distance, our subscribers will enjoy traditional features such as voice mail, three way calling, call waiting, call forwarding, missed call information, caller ID, and conference calling,» said Jack Namer, InComm’s Chief Technology Officer. «Due to its feature-rich capabilities, VoIP2’s service is a powerful second line alternative to the expensive charges of traditional phone companies, and because the `Call Box’ is Plug & Play, it is ideal for ’big box’ electronic stores and department stores to integrate into their technology product inventory,» concluded Mr. Namer.
Other service providers currently offer portable VoIP hardware; however, in order for those products to provide service to the user they often require difficult installation procedures and software upgrades. VoIP2’s adapter is ready to use in minutes, taking this complicated procedure out of the consumer’s hands. Therefore, users can take the «Call Box» on the road and access VoIP2’s services anywhere in the world by using a virtual phone number. This allows a user to avoid expensive overseas long-distance charges when calling someone in the United States while overseas.
«We are aggressively researching, developing and implementing additional complementary add-on features, which will further enhance our proprietary VoIP technology,» continued Mr. Namer. As InComm’s VoIP technology continues to develop, the Company plans to seamlessly add new features, including Virtual Office, Follow-me «One Number,» and Broadcast quality Video Streaming services, among others. «We plan to announce additional features and products in the near future,» Mr. Namer concluded.
