** Here's the News on TLTG ** voice over IP AND new website that they opened 1 day early. IT's a great company...I just bought in at 1.50 It was an MM shake! NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 2, 1999--Teltran International Inc. (OTC BB:TLTG) Tuesday announced that it has completed the testing phase of its Teltran VoIP Service (TVS). "We are extremely pleased that we have completed testing TVS' connectivity, bandwidth and network. We're ready to go out to the carrier and corporate marketplace and have potential customers test and ultimately use what we feel is the finest VoIP service in the industry," said Peter Biagioli, Teltran's vice president of Sales & Marketing. TVS is an exciting, new Phone-to-Phone Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service that is easy to use, inexpensive, requires no additional equipment and provides PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) quality since the PSTN will handle call origination and termination. Teltran is one of 15 affiliates, covering 23 countries worldwide marketing the VoIP network of OzEmail Interline (www.interline.aust.com). In addition to being an affiliate, Teltran has also acted as a refile hub for the Interline network for the past year. "Getting our affiliates into production are important steps to building out our global Internet telephony infrastructure," stated J.B. Rousselot, Interline's chief executive officer. "We're excited that Teltran has finished its test phase and confident that they will bring many US companies into the network." The TVS product launch will begin immediately, via in-person contact by Teltran staff and their exclusive reseller and agent network, to the US telecom carrier and corporate marketplace. TVS will give Teltran a clear edge in penetrating the US telecom carrier market as well as large corporate users of domestic and international voice, data and fax traffic. Anticipating a successful product launch, Byron Lerner, Teltran's CEO added: "Teltran fully expects to be signing major usage contracts in the coming months as we enter the marketing phase of TVS' development. We have contacted many potential customers and feel confident that the high quality of our VoIP service will lead to many satisfied customers." Licensed by the FCC as a global facilities-based common carrier, Teltran offers a full range of telecommunications services including Voice over IP, domestic and international long distance, fax broadcast services, calling card programs and satellite communications.
