NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 7, 2000--deltathree, Inc., (Nasdaq: DDDC.O), the IP telephony network and provider of Internet-based communication services for businesses and individuals worldwide, announced today that it has added Points of Presence (POPs) in China and Brazil, expanding the company's network to 107 POPs in over 40 countries. The success of deltathree's partnership with China United Telecommunications Corporation (China Unicom), for which deltathree enables China Unicom to distribute Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) calling cards throughout China, resulted in the network expansion within the country.

Also as part of its latest network expansion, deltathree has added POPs in Buenos Aires, Argentina and Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. "This latest expansion of our network is proof positive that major international telecoms can benefit greatly from incorporating VoIP into their own services," said Jerry Norton, Vice President, Site Development of deltathree.
