Xten VoIP Softphones Now Available for Linux SANTA CLARA, CA, May
16 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Xten Networks, Inc. (OTCBB: XNWK), a
provider of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol), Video over IP,
Instant Messaging (IM), and Presence SIP softphones, announced
today that some of its SIP softphones and software development kits
(SDKs) are now available for Linux. "Xten has done and continues to
do very well on the desktop. The company is now becoming more
active in developing and selling solutions into the appliance
oriented market," commented Erik Lagerway, COO and President for
Xten. "The first step towards creating some of these embedded
solutions is support for Linux." Xten's softphones for Windows, MAC
OS X, Pocket PC and now Linux are software applications, which run
on devices such as personal computers (PCs) or personal digital
assistants (PDAs) or can be integrated into set-top boxes, embedded
devices, instant messenger applications, and the like. When an Xten
softphone is connected to a service provider's network, the user
can make and receive calls to and from other "on-net" callers
(IP-to-IP) and/or "off-net" callers (IP-to-PSTN/Cellular) with the
same quality of service they would expect from an IP handset.
However, at a fraction of the cost, while providing more features
and functionality than an IP handset. The Linux version of X-Lite
has been tested on Debian(R), RedHat Fedora, S.U.S.E.(R) and Sun(R)
JDS. A free version of X-Lite for Linux is now available from
Xten's website, please visit http://www.xten.com/. About Xten
