Mobile phone and PDA versions also available
BOSTON, Oct. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Fall 2004 VON Conference & Expo, Booth
#1206 -- FWD Communications, a newly formed company that strives to change the
way people communicate through innovative IP communications technologies,
today announced the launch of pulver.Communicator(TM). pulver.Communicator
offers a unique communications experience that combines the power of VoIP with
the functionality of cross-client instant messaging (IM) and enables advanced
voice and IM capabilities, such as presence detection and social networking.
Unique Features
Multi-platform, Multi-service IM and Voice. pulver.Communicator users can
send instant messages, make voice calls, create conference calls and establish
cross party chat sessions not only with their pulver.Communicator buddies but
also their buddies on the four most popular IM networks: AOL, Yahoo!, MSN,
and ICQ. Users can make free voice calls over the FWD Network to millions of
VoIP users worldwide, including other pulver.Communicator users and the
subscribers of over 60 other VoIP service providers, and free calls to 800
numbers in the U.S., the U.K., Holland, Japan, France and countless other
locations. For IM buddies without a VoIP phone, users can talk through
Call-Me links requiring no special software.
pulver.Communicator Conferencing enables users to create virtual
conference rooms that simultaneously support both voice and IM. Conference
participants are only a click away, can be invited from any of the 4 most
popular IM Networks, or can dial in from the PSTN network.
Social Networking.
pulver.Communicator has been developed to encourage and promote the
principle of networking people together from all over the world through its
shared buddy lists feature. Activating this feature enables you to view and
share the buddy lists of other subscribers. Of course, individuals can easily
set pulver.Communicator to disallow the sharing of their contact information
if they choose.
Connection to the Traditional Phone Network ("PSTN").
pulver.Communicator's Port-of-Call service allows users to receive calls
from the traditional phone network through PSTN phone numbers linked to their
pulver.Communicator account. This unique service enables people to purchase
incoming telephone numbers from a number of countries and have them routed to
their broadband-connected computer, PDA or VoIP-enabled phone, anywhere in the
world.
"pulver.Communicator is all about doing things that are impossible when
using the public switched telephone network," said Jim Toga, Chief Operating
Officer of FWD Communications. "We're really excited by the possibilities
that this service has to offer, and we plan to add more features, such as
video, on a monthly basis."
