deltathree, Inc. (Nasdaq:DDDC), New York, a provider of SIP-based
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) solutions for service providers and
consumers worldwide, will be offering Canadian inbound phone numbers,
otherwise known as direct inward dialing (DID) numbers, to its reseller,
service provider and direct-to-consumer clients. deltathree's
ability to provide 9-1-1 services in Canada was made possible by its
long-standing partnership with Intrado, the core provider of North
America's 9-1-1 emergency communications network. Per the
regulations of the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications
Commission, all VoIP subscribers in the country with the ability to make
and receive calls must be equipped with 9-1-1 service. Therefore, with
this new 9-1-1 capability deltathree is able to expand its inbound
calling offers to include Canada.
"We are excited to be offering Canadian inbound phone numbers
to our clients," stated Yaron Globus, deltathree's vice
president of Operations. "Our initiative with Intrado further
defines our commitment to serve the North American market with
innovative VoIP services that are in accordance to regional regulations.
Clients are now empowered with yet another element of deltathree's
service with which to grow their businesses and personal
relationships."
deltathree was an early adopter of Intrado's 9-1-1 services in
the United States, and continues to lead the industry as one of the
first VoIP service providers to utilize its emergency services in
Canada. This new initiative with Intrado emphasizes deltathree's
ongoing focus on public policy and safety measures when launching new
services to its clients.
deltathree's Reseller and Hosted Consumer VoIP Solution
clients will now be able to further develop their businesses in North
America with of the ability to utilize Canadian DID numbers. Customers
of joip, deltathree's newly formed consumer brand that powers the
VoIP services of Panasonic's new GLOBARANGE hybrid phone, can now
have Canadian inbound phone numbers to stay closer to their friends and
family in the country. GLOBARANGE phone owners automatically become part
of the global joip community, where members can call each other around

can call the joip user locally, giving them significant cost savings
while allowing the joip user yet another way to strengthen
relationships.
