netTALK.COM, INC. Donated VOIP Adapters to the Big Ten Networks, Improving Mobile Communication Nationally

MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- netTALK.COM, INC. (OTCBB: NTLK), a publicly traded Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLEC) recently provided their netTALK Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) devices to the Big Ten Network, the first internationally distributed network dedicated to covering one of the premier collegiate conferences in the country.

In an effort to support the Big Ten Network and to assist in improving communication, netTALK.COM, INC. provided 16 of their VoIP devices, which were deployed to the network’s mobile television production trucks for live game productions. Because the trucks are equipped with reliable internet connection, but rarely an affordable telephone line, the units provided the company with dependable mobile phone service around the country.

"The Big Ten Network has chosen netTALK.COM, Inc. and their VOIP Adapters to provide high quality, mobile telephone lines for live production communications. The units are compact, robust, and maintenance-free while still providing our production crews with vital, IP-based communication lines back to our headquarters in Chicago and our network management center in Houston,” said Scott Adametz, Systems Engineer for the Big Ten Networks. “netTALK’s service has been superb and we look forward to deploying more units as our live event coverage expands."

netTALK.COM, INC. offers affordable phone service through its flagship product, the netTALK DUO. The palm-sized device allows customers to make free calls to the U.S. and Canada from anywhere in the world, with no contracts, no monthly bills, and no computer required. The product retails for $69.95 and includes the first year of calling service; subsequent service is $29.95 per year.

“We were delighted to be approached by such a world class television network and happy we can provide our service to the sports community just in time for football season,” said Anastasios “Takis” Kyriakides, Chairman and CEO of netTALK, INC. “We will continue to support the Big Ten Network with any additional communication needs as they arise.”

The Big Ten Network televises more than 350 live events every year, the vast majority in high definition, as well as studio shows, original programming, and classic games, and is available to more than 75 million homes in the U.S. and Canada.
