More news from different slant: TUCSON, Ariz., Dec. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Wavetech International, Inc. (Nasdaq: ITEL) today announced that DCI Telecommunications, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: DCTC) has formed an alliance with IXC Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq: IIXC) that will elevate DCI to the status of a global carrier and support the dramatic growth in DCI's traffic worldwide. On November 6, 1998 Wavetech announced that it had signed a definitive agreement to merge with DCI Telecommunications, in a move to become a larger and profitable company. DCI is an international provider of telecommunications services, including long distance, prepaid telephone cards and Internet services. It has an extensive distribution network throughout North America, Europe and the Far East, owns telephone switching facilities in Canada, the United Kingdom, Spain and Denmark, and has 12 operating facilities serving customers in eight countries. DCI recently reported revenues of $17 million for the first six months of its current fiscal year, versus $5.8 million in the comparable prior-year period. Gerald I. Quinn, President and CEO of Wavetech International stated, "The DCI and IXC agreement is a big step forward for DCI to become a major presence in the dynamic international telecommunications community. The DCI / IXC agreement will have a positive impact on the roll-out of Interpretel products and services post merger." Quinn added, "This alliance is a perfect example of how the planned merger with DCI will benefit Wavetech shareholders." Wavetech International, Inc. is a facilities based telecommunication company. It is the developer and the distributor of Interpretel calling card products and is engaged in the resale of international long distance minutes. The Company's advanced computer/telephony network provides subscribers a single point of access to a broad range of communications and information services. Wavetech markets its services in the United States and Canada under the Interpretel(TM)name and through other customized or co-branded initiatives with other organizations.

BG, We should soon see a press release from Wavetech also. It will give us an opportunity to see a 3rd version. I do know the merger with them is a definite go. There is a lot of information yet to come concerning the alliance with IXC. DCI will now be carrying their own traffic through out the world. They will be able to sell bandwith to other companies. Most of their income will be coming from locale and long distance service. After a 24 month ramp up period DCI will be looking at a billion dollars of revenues. DCI has signed an agreement with a company called Jazztell that makes DCI a locale telephone company in Spain. DCI will soon provide long distance service in the US. The Canadian JV will now become more profitable and much easier to sell. We are probably much closer to an AMEX listing than we know. As Joe said this morning, the ramifications of this alliance are huge and DCI will now be more attractive to a number of other suitors. Best Regards
