or cell phones anywhere in the world. International customers can
have a US local number, receive inbound calls on their US number,

VideoPhone will have access to Yak's global search and directory, the
ability to manage "presence" across different locations, and the
ability to make and receive member-to-member video calls and up to 5
person video conferences.
"The international availability of yakUnlimited furthers our
commitment to providing users with greater access to its growing
community and services around the world," said Charles Zwebner, Chief
Executive Officer of Yak Communications. "This application offers
international subscribers access to a high quality and very
inexpensive North American dial-tone, enabling subscribers to benefit
from our extensive features and functionality, and ultra competitive
international rates with more than 40 countries priced at $.03 or
less. This product is truly revolutionary for many parts of the world
and we believe it sets a new value proposition for our customers.
Yak is also developing the capability of creating a web-enabled
plug-in for its PC softphone that will be able to reside within its
partners' websites, allowing partner members to seamlessly chat and
voice and videocall as part of their partner experience. "Allowing
web administrators to easily integrate Yak's PC softphone into their
websites enabling all site visitors to IM, talk and video talk freely
over the internet, will better position Yak to tap into existing
social networks," stated David Hurwitz, President of Yak's WorldCity
VoIP business unit. We are also developing a new and more flexible
softphone skin and interface to facilitate private branding of our
software client so it can more easily take on the look and feel of
our partners brand. We anticipate releasing these products within the
next 60 days thus enabling Yak the opportunity to accelerate and
scale up customers to Yak's VoIP products and services".
