i2Telecom releases its Beta Version 2.0 of its MyGlobalTalk service. MyGlobalTalk is a new and advanced mobile 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 MyGlobalTalk software is installed on cellular handsets, 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 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.

MyGlobalTalk, when combined with the i2Telecom services network, allows users to access, through their mobile handheld devices, the cost benefits and features that the Internet delivers to the computer. The current Mobile VoIP Beta Version 2.0 provides low-cost access to both international and domestic telephone networks. Future releases will include speed dial and access to enterprise VoIP enabled communication products currently available from such companies as Microsoft, Nortel, Avaya, Cisco, Vertical, and Mitel.

MyGlobalTalk is being released in phases, having commenced in the first quarter of 2008 to customers in the United States and the United Kingdom with SmartPhone handsets that utilize the Windows Mobile 5.0/6.0 operating system. Accompanying the release of the MyGlobalTalk mobile application is a MyGlobalTalk branded web site. Subsequent releases will be available worldwide and will include support for BlackBerry, iPhone and Symbian enabled handsets, while adding new features specifically designed with the mobile handset user in mind.
