InteleCom Signs VoIP Distribution Agreement With TechnoPlanet

INDIANAPOLIS, IN--(Marketwire - December 4, 2007) - InteleCom, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: IECM) is pleased to announce that TechnoPlanet Productions has signed a distribution agreement to market InteleCom's Internet phones and service through TechnoPlanet's 20,000 Canadian, 35,000 US, and 45,000 International computer, electronics and Internet orientated Value Added Resellers (VARS).

InteleCom, through its brand name InteleFone, provides Internet phone service (VoIP) for pennies a minute to customers anywhere in the world, in many cases saving up to a dollar or more per minute over regular long distance and international calls. The savings are even greater for International travelers using their mobile phones. The company's Travel InteleFone simply plugs into a USB port on a laptop or PC and allows customers to make calls over the Internet for the same low rate no matter what country they place the call from. All InteleFone calls initially travel over the Internet bypassing the local or national phone company in the country where the customer is located and can connect to any regular or mobile phone in the world. InteleFone to InteleFone calls are provided free of charge.

Unlike most VoIP companies that only provide service to broadband Internet customers, InteleFone also works with dial-up Internet service, giving InteleCom a global market universe of 1.25 Billion Internet customers, which is 900% larger than the 125 Million broadband Internet customer base.

"We are thrilled to work with TechnoPlanet Productions and their outstanding network of resellers. This new relationship represents a significant step forward in our global distribution efforts," stated Michael Connor, President and COO of InteleCom, Inc.

InteleCom previously announced that The Sakal Group, Israel's largest privately owned retail chain, will invest $5 Million with InteleCom, Inc., for a global joint venture to market the company's Internet phones and service in South East Asia, Central America and the Middle East. Sakal recently started sales of InteleCom's Travel InteleFone at its electronic stores and is committed to sell its current inventory of 21,000 phones prior to starting the joint venture. The details of Sakal's current sales efforts and plans were reported in Yediot Aharonot, Israel's largest newspaper.
