Press Release Summary: The Pennsylvania Families\' and Children\'s Equality is the
beneficiary of FreedomVOICE Sytems' TalkText voice to text technology.

Press Release Body: Encinitas, CA (PRWEB) December 17, 2007 -- FreedomVOICE Systems,
a licensed telecommunications carrier specializing in virtual office and hosted
telephone solutions to support small businesses, announces it is providing
discounted services and its innovative TalkText voice to text technology to
Pennsylvania Families' and Children's Equality (PA FACE), a non-profit organization
advocating children's rights during divorce and separation, often a very difficult
period.

According to organization officials, PA FACE's mission is to minimize the emotional
upheaval experienced by children during and after parental separation and promote
their right to equal access to both parents and the extended family.

"We support efforts that help make the public aware of the vital role fathers play
in the growth and development of their children," said David Nelson, president of
the Bucks County chapter of PA FACE. "We're promoting legislation whereby shared
custody is made a legal presumption and responsibility."

To help PA FACE achieve its goals, the telecommunications carrier, FreedomVOICE, is
providing a toll-free vanity phone number and its hallmark FreedomXTREME voice
system, featuring auto attendant, multiple mailboxes, email delivery of voice and
fax messages and a comprehensive slate of other tools that allow small businesses to
enhance their image and stay connected with customers and colleagues.

Two optional features are also included in the PA FACE configuration:
Name/Address capture that provides names and addresses of incoming calls and a new
technological breakthrough, voice to text transcription. Named TalkText,
FreedomVOICE officials dub it "the evolution of voicemail".

"With locations throughout the state and a small number of volunteers, our ability
to respond to voicemail messages left on our hotline is severely limited," said
Nelson. "We receive over 100 messages a month. Volunteers have to transcribe
content from each, including, where possible, name, address and phone number,
scribbling furiously or rewinding and listening again. We have tested TalkText and
are extremely excited about this time-saving new technology from FreedomVOICE."

With the FreedomVOICE tools in place, callers dial the toll-free vanity number for
PA FACE and leave a voicemail message. As a standard feature of the voice system,
messages are sent as audio files attached to emails, allowing volunteers to check
for messages from any Internet-connected computer. With the addition of TalkText,
they can also read the transcription of the voicemail in the body of the email. The
Name/Address capture provides full contact details as part of the message, whether
the caller leaves the information or not and can be copied and pasted into the PA
FACE database.

"Our volunteers can read through their voicemail messages in a fraction of the time
it took them to listen," added Nelson. "They can respond more quickly, often
directly by email. Another benefit is that we can save these messages and refer back
to them as needed. The FreedomVOICE system allows us to become more organized with
our messages. We are extremely grateful for the help FreedomVOICE has given our
cause."

FreedomVOICE CEO and Founder, Eric Thomas, was quick to respond. "We are proud to
help PA FACE with their communications needs. With the number of marriage
dissolutions each year in this country, anything we can do to alleviate the stress
on children and promote equal parenting responsibility is an honor."
