iSkoot has been selected as winner in the category of Mobile Technology for the 2008 MITX Technology Awards. The MITX Technology Awards, presented by the Massachusetts Innovation & Technology Exchange, recognize innovative technologies developed in the New England area, as well as the individuals and organizations responsible for driving these advancements. Honorees for this year's awards were announced last night in a ceremony at The Royal Sonesta Hotel in Cambridge.

iSkoot is the first and only carrier- and consumer-friendly mobile VoIP solution. iSkoot offers a mobile download for Skype and also powers the Skypephone. Unlike the many operator-unfriendly mobile VoIP solutions in the market, iSkoot's mobile Skype solution leverages the circuit-switched voice networks of mobile operators, rather than the data channel, making it a viable choice for operators worldwide, while also optimizing call quality and connection, making it a consumer-friendly and functioning solution with an amazing quality of service.

More than 325 of the region's top technology and business professionals attended the MITX Awards ceremony. The event also included a keynote address by Dr. Amar Bose, Chairman & Technical Director of Bose Corporation, as well as a panel forum on "What's Next for the Advertising Business Model."
