visitalk.com™ and iNYC to bring free long distance voice and video calls to broadband users
NEW YORK – July 6, 2000 – visitalk.com™
and iNYC, a national broadband access solution provider, today announced they
will work together to bring free real-time voice and video calling over the
Internet to iNYC’s broadband users.
iNYC will offer visitalk.com Internet calling
services to its existing and future broadband clients as part of a package of
Internet content and services. visitalk.com’s
services give users free voice and video calling over the Internet, multipoint

similar to the white pages of a phone book. Registered users also can call
telephones from their PCs for free.
iNYC’s FDSL, a unique program that allows users to get a DSL line for little or
no cost, is made possible through the support from advertisers. By interacting
with the advertisers, subscribers will earn credits towards their service,
making the service either very low cost or totally free.

to more users and allow them to experience how well our video and audio services
perform with high bandwidth service," noted Michael Cooney, vice president,
strategic planning, visitalk.com.

commented Justin Kiliszek, director of strategic development, iNYC. "The

My girlfriend moved to Buffalo, New York, and I'm down south in Thomasville, Georgia. We love Visitalk because it makes it easy to communicate with each other. It is like a one stop shop for all of your long distance communication needs! Visitalk has brought us close together, even though we are miles and miles apart!
