overseas calls can be as low as S$0.05 per min anytime<br />

Simple- to-use <strong>Aztech</strong> V300ATA VoIP Broadband Router bundled with Global Village Internet<br />

Phone Service allows users to use a telephone instead of a PC to make an overseas call for as<br />

low as S$0.05 per minute anytime via broadband connection<br />

SINGAPORE, 30 May 2005 - <strong>Aztech</strong> Systems Ltd, a global leader in data and voice<br />

communication as well as digital electronic products, announced the introduction of its V300ATA<br />

VoIP Broadband Router bundled with Global Village ® Internet Phone Service to provide<br />

broadband users with a new, low cost way to call anytime and anywhere in the world via an<br />

existing telephone instead of using a PC. Powered by Conexant’s industry-leading voice<br />

processing technology and chipsets, <strong>Aztech</strong>’s V300ATA VoIP Broadband Router allows users<br />

continue to use their broadband to surf the Internet while making simultaneous Internet voice<br />

calls with their telephone, thereby maximizing the value of the existing ADSL or Cable<br />

Broadband connection.<br />

The Starter Kit consists of the following:<br />

• <strong>Aztech</strong> V300ATA VoIP Broadband Router that allows users to connect any Analog<br />

Corded/Cordless Telephone or DECT Phone to make calls<br />

• Global Village Internet Phone Service with free 60 minutes call time included upon<br />

registration<br />

• Low cost long distance calls at S$0.05 per min to 27 countries<br />

• Free Calls to any Global Village users and many other Voice over IP users around the<br />

world<br />

• Free Premium Features like Caller ID, Caller ID Blocking, Call Return, Call Forwarding,<br />

Do not Disturb, Call Block, Voice Mail and Conferencing<br />

• User friendly instructions to set up and register<br />

Priced at S$139, <strong>Aztech</strong> V300ATA VoIP Broadband Router will be available at major stores like<br />

Harvey Norman, Best Denki and Challenger Superstores as well as retail and computer outlets in<br />

Sim Lim Square and Funan Centre, Singapore in early June 2005.<br />

The <strong>Aztech</strong> V300ATA VoIP Broadband Router also<br />

comes with easy to follow instructions and has a simple<br />

automated registration that allows users to enjoy free 60<br />

minutes call time straight away without any hassle. To<br />

extend their call time, users simply need to sign up at<br />

Global Village’s secured website at<br />

www.globalvillage.com. No monthly minimum service<br />

charge is required, as it is a “pay-as-you-use” service.<br />

Users can pay by credit card in Singapore, US, UK or<br />

Euro currency depending on their country of origin. The information is available at <strong>Aztech</strong>’s<br />

website at http://www.aztech.com/voice.htm.


With <strong>Aztech</strong> V300ATA VoIP Broadband Router, users can make high-quality phone calls over<br />

their broadband connection for as low as S$0.05 per minute anytime for 27 countries (Please<br />

refer to Appendix 1 for the list of 27 countries) and a slightly higher price for other countries. Take<br />

for an example; an overseas call to China from Singapore currently costs between S$0.50 and<br />

S$1.39 per minute and with <strong>Aztech</strong> V300ATA VoIP Broadband Router, it only costs S$0.05 per<br />

minute, thus offering a huge saving of between S$0.45 and S$1.34 per minute.<br />

“<strong>Aztech</strong> V300ATA VoIP Broadband Router provides out-of-the-box connectivity, combining<br />

<strong>Aztech</strong>’s high quality hardware with a premium Internet phone service from Global Village,<br />

thereby allowing customers to make high-quality phone calls over their broadband connection at<br />

a fraction of today’s overseas call charge. This translates to substantial cost savings for<br />

consumers,” said Mr Michael Mun, President and CEO of <strong>Aztech</strong> Systems Ltd.<br />

“Zoom’s Global Village Internet phone service is a revolutionary communications technology with<br />

superior features and huge cost savings. We are excited to partner with <strong>Aztech</strong> to offer a featurepacked<br />

product that is easy to use and cost-effective,” stated Frank Manning, President of<br />

Zoom ® Technologies.<br />

exciting product and service launch,” said Zeev Collin, Vice President of Voice Access Products<br />

for Conexant. He added, “These two industry-leading companies are paving the way for a costeffective<br />

and feature-rich VoIP phone service on a worldwide basis.”<br />
