Press Release Summary: NeoPhonetics announced the launch of its Asterisk® Business
Edition-based unified messaging platform for the majority of legacy TDM and IP PBX
systems on the market today

Press Release Body: TINLEY PARK, IL - (September 11, 2007) - NeoPhonetics®, a
telephony provider that designs, implements and supports custom VoIP systems for
enterprises, today announced the launch of its Asterisk® Business Edition-based
unified messaging platform for the majority of legacy TDM and IP PBX systems on the
market today, including systems from Avaya, Cisco, NEC and Nortel. This platform
benefits large organizations, such as universities, looking to add unified messaging
or replace expensive licensed-based unified messaging systems with a more
affordable, feature-rich solution.

"Like many of our products, the unified messaging platform evolved directly from a
custom application we designed for an existing customer," said Chad Agate, CEO of
NeoPhonetics. "This new platform can eliminate the need to replace old PBX systems
that work well but lack critical advanced communications capabilities, while also
providing customers with a simple way to evaluate Digium Asterisk as a
cost-effective option for replacing their PBXs in the future. We anticipate that the
ability to provide flexible unified messaging for any amount of multi-tenant users
for one fixed price will be particularly attractive to the university community."

The unified messaging platform fully integrates the following features into existing
TDM and IP PBXs:

. Multi-tenant voicemail for one telephone or one telephone extension
. Voicemail to email
. Voicemail to paging
. Call forwarding
. SMS messaging
. Message waiting indicator
. Distinctive rings for multi-tenant telephones
. Automated system and voicemail configuration
. Voicemail groups
. Web-based end user portal

The platform software comes with NeoPhonetics Asterisk-certified onsite integration
services, as well as access to 24/7 service and support. PBX system administrators
receive a simple management interface system that allows for automated configuration
of moves, additions and changes so that there are no additional charges for adding
users or making changes to the system.

What Makes the Unified Messaging Platform Unique?
The NeoPhonetics unified messaging platform:
. Works with most PBXs on the market today, so it is platform- and solution-neutral
. Provides affordable unified messaging as an alternative to licensed-based products
that lack features and often cost more
. Comes with full integration services for configuration and provisioning of extensions
. Enables multi-tenant voicemail through one phone for users that share telephones
or extensions
. Enables message waiting lights on a wide variety of proprietary systems
. Provides evaluation of Asterisk before replacing an entire PBX system

"The flexibility Digium Asterisk provides continues to challenge the creativity of
our design and development team, because integration possibilities are virtually
endless," continued Agate. "Ultimately, we look to integrate individual applications
such as this platform into one, unified product that provides rapid, automated
configuration and provisioning of enterprise-grade, high availability PBX systems."

Pricing and Availability
The NeoPhonetics unified messaging platform is available now and is delivered to
most organizations for less than $10,000. For more information on the platform, and
