American Telecom Files Patent Application Covering Functionality of Cordless Multi-Handset Internet Phone
1 June 2006
American Telecom Services, Inc. (Amex: TES), a provider of Digital Clear(TM) Internet phones (Voice-Over-Internet-Protocol or "VoIP") and Pay N' Talk pre-paid long distance communication services bundled with digital cordless multi-handset phones announced today that it has filed a patent application covering the functionality of a cordless, multi-handset Internet phone that incorporates the Internet Protocol (IP) voice platform, router and charger in the base of the master unit.
Current products rely on various combinations of separate routers, IP gateways (Analog Telephony Adapters), traditional phones, and wiring into existing home phone networks that sometimes require specialized technicians.
Bruce Hahn, CEO of American Telecom Services, commented, "With our innovative bundled product approach, our Internet phones can be sold in the telephone section of the retailer, where other phones are sold. With our Digital Clear phones, the customer can easily install the phone and incorporate multiple phone handsets around their home without the need for any complex or extra wiring. Our products provide consumers with the savings and crystal-clear quality of VoIP technology for telephone service with the convenience of simply plugging the phone into the modem."
Mr. Hahn added, "We believe that the only way to successfully introduce Internet phones and telephone services into the mass market was to make the phones exceptionally easy to connect, and ensure they operate just like a traditional phone. Part of that understanding comes from making the phone look identical to the phones that consumers have been using for years in their homes. While other companies talk about the benefits of Internet phones and service, we've focused on delivering those services in a way the consumer can relate to. We have accomplished this important product goal and will continue our research initiatives to deliver new product innovations which further improve the users experience."
