(NASDAQ: NCTI) today announced the roll-out of its initial release of ClearSpeech(TM) I-Phone software for Corporate Intranets. This is the first of three planned software releases that incorporates NCT's proprietary technologies to solve the voice quality issues of current I-Phones. This release allows any PC on an Intranet to talk to any other PC on that Intranet. ClearSpeech Corporate I-Phone software is the first product to feature advanced two-way noise cancellation and echo cancellation which allows for clear voice transmissions and hands-free full-duplex operation. Specialized features include advanced compression, encryption, LAN optimization and other operations, voice messaging, Rolodex, audio set-up, "do not disturb", auto answer, etc. The software is available for licensing to corporations and value added resellers including I-Phone suppliers, network service suppliers, PC suppliers, gateway manufacturers, software companies, LAN manufacturers, long line companies, telephone manufacturers, telephone companies, Internet service providers, cable TV companies, personal digital assistant manufacturers and call centers. "This implementation is the I-Phone breakthrough that everyone has been waiting for because it raises voice quality to exceptional levels," said Michael J. Parrella, President, NCTI. "Currently I-Phones cannot be used as speaker phones because a pronounced and disruptive echo is present. ClearSpeech I-Phone software delivers voice quality which is superior to traditional hands-free telephony levels and significantly reduces LAN utilization which opens it for mainstream use." Mr. Parrella continued, "Analysts believe that IP telephony will provide significant cost savings to corporations and segments of the consumer population. NCTI's early entry into this emerging market represents an important opportunity for the company, and will therefore be a focus of our marketing and sales efforts this year." Evaluation copies of ClearSpeech Corporate I-Phone software will be available to potential licensees in March with product to follow shortly thereafter. The software will be demonstrated in booth No. 3612 at the Computer Telephony Expo, March 3-5 in Los Angeles. NCTI is a leading technology developer with an extensive portfolio of proprietary algorithms and a wide variety of product offerings for consumer, commercial and industrial applications. The Company specializes in the utilization of sound and signal waves to reduce noise, improve signal-to-noise ratio and enhance sound quality.
