Staples, the world's largest office products retailer, has become the first national retailer to stock PhoneGnome, the new worldwide voice technology product that seamlessly joins Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) communications with a customer's existing Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) service, allowing consumers to make Internet calls and PSTN phone calls from the same phone.

With the announcement PhoneGnome is available immediately for customer purchase at select Staples locations across the United States, including the San Clemente Staples store, located at 93 Via Pico Plaza, as part of a nationwide introduction. PhoneGnome is changing the way people use the telephone, without having to change their phone company.

"Staples has been a leader in selling telephony products to small and medium size businesses," said David Beckemeyer, TelEvolution CEO and inventor of PhoneGnome. "Staples provides exceptional product visibility, strong customer service and are known to merchandise items of quality. We are pleased that Staples has become our first traditional retail outlet for PhoneGnome."
