i2Telecom International, Inc. ( ITUI ), an emerging leader in voice/data communications technology for the Internet, today announced that Italba Corporation, a licensed telecommunications carrier in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Panama, Jamaica and Uruguay, has signed an agreement to utilize i2Telecom's Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) products to supplement and expand its current service offerings. The agreement was facilitated through Cotran Telecommunications, a premier member of i2Telecom's VoIP Telephony Partner network. Italba Corporation has placed an initial order for 1,500 i2Telecom microgateway Internet access devices and projects that within six months as many as 40,000 units could be in circulation within the seven South American and Caribbean countries.

Italba Corporation is a leading wholesale provider of international termination services to large and small telecommunications carriers that require access to South American and Jamaican markets. The company also provides VoIP solutions and services to small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) with local and international telecommunications requirements.

"We are pleased to have been selected by Italba as its VoIP partner in this rapidly developing region of the world," stated Paul Arena, Chief Executive Officer of i2 Telecom International, Inc. "We believe that our ongoing success in the international marketplace reflects not only the fundamental economic benefits of VoIP, but also the added value of our Advanced Digital Voice platform. Working with such leading telecommunications providers as Italba in South America and China Unicom in Asia, we are providing significant cost savings and improving communications capabilities among the customers and employees of organizations around the world."

i2Telecom's proprietary Advanced Digital Voice(TM) platform (ADV) is a tightly integrated combination of hardware, software and "talkware" for next generation VoIP solutions. It consists of a new architecture for the Company's microgateway products, innovative applications built to SIP standard, a global VoIP network, a global PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) interconnect network, and geographically dispersed Network Operation Centers.

"We selected i2Telecom over the competition because of the advanced features of the InternetTalker(TM), the company's ability to provide unparalleled service in the remote areas of the countries we serve, and its excellent reputation for supporting global partners," stated Gustavo Alberelli, President and Chief Executive Officer of Italba Corporation. "i2Telecom's products are very easy to deploy and an ideal complement to the services Italba currently provides to SMEs, Internet Cafes and Hotels in South America and in the Caribbean region."

In addition to end-user customer benefits, i2Telecom's Partnership Program enables telephony and IT Value-Added Resellers (VARs) to offer business customers a complete VoIP solution, while earning income from each sale and recurring monthly revenues from minutes of usage.
