Business Wire
Edgetech International, Inc. (OTC:EGIL) has partnered with
SpeechPhone (www.speechphone.com and www.speechphone.net) to
integrate cutting edge telecom features with the power and
versatility of ultra-mobile, high speed Internet. By offering
SpeechPhone�s award winning communications assistant Mandi� (my
automated natural dialog interface), EGIL has vaulted The Edge hand
held wireless unit into a powerful and complete communications
device. SpeechPhone is an industry leader in �smart dial tone�
instant access allowing for greater productivity from anywhere in
the world with tremendous cost savings. This is the perfect match
for EGIL to provide automated personal assistant services that can
integrate e-mail, voice mail, fax, and Internet functions with The
Edge to become an enhanced VoIP phone and hurdle the competition.
SpeechPhone unifies communication and messaging with integration of
voice mail, e-mail, personal contacts, and dozens of specialized
services all through a single voice user interface. Edgetech can
build brand recognition by capitalizing on the ability to sell
SpeechPhone�s unique services on The Edge or as a packaged service
for businesses and home. SpeechPhone offers flat rate service and
private branded solutions to resellers and service providers and
ensures continuing leadership in the development and deployment of
speech-driven personal assistants through their strategic
partnerships with Level 3 Communications (NASDAQ:LVLT), NeoSpeech,
PowerNet Global Communications, Lucent (NYSE:LU), Bell Labs, and
VLM International. �The unique combination of our flat rate speech
activated unified communication solution with Edge Tech�s next
generation wireless hand held is truly going to give mobile staff
members the Edge. This takes mobile productivity to a whole new
level and breaks the high price barrier that would otherwise
prevent mass market adoption,� said Michael D. Metcalf, Chairman
and Founder of SpeechPhone. �We continue to break barriers by
combining technology and communication services at the highest
level, giving our customers a clear advantage with a suite of
mobile business solutions,� commented Edgetech CEO, Lev Parnas.

handheld wireless internet access device which delivers the
internet at DSL like speed, displaying full content HTML, web

web experience, together with a larger functional keyboard than
competitive products. Our distribution rights to such product are
subject to a long-term marketing, sales and distribution agreement
between a Company subsidiary and the licensor of such product,
pursuant to which we have been granted such rights in several
exclusive vertical markets, virtually worldwide, including: (i)
fantasy sports and sports book; (ii) online poker; (iii) music,
movies and television; and (iv) financial services markets. Ongoing
exclusivity for such markets is, generally, subject to the payment
to the licensor of certain fees, including delineated monthly
service fees per subscriber, and, meeting delineated minimal annual
subscriber thresholds. The Company's executive office facility is
located at 950 North Federal Highway, Suite 302, Pompano Beach,

uncertainties that could cause actual results to be materially

Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from

whether as result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Factors that could cause such results to differ materially from the
results discussed in such forward looking statements include,
without limitation: uncertain continued ability to meet our
operational needs in view of ongoing working capital constraints;
need for substantial additional capital to fully implement our plan
of operations; no assurances of and uncertainty of profitability;
no assurances of the Company's ability to effect sufficient product
sales so as to maintain exclusivity in certain vertical markets,
the result of which could materially adversely effect the Company's
results of operations; need for additional management, sales and
marketing personnel, which is contingent upon our receipt of
additional capital; competition from companies having substantially
great financial, marketing and other resources than the Company,
including name and brand recognition; the impact of competitive
services and pricing; changing consumer tastes and trends; and the
legal, auditing and administrative cost of compliance associated
with the Sarbanes Oxley Act. Many of such risk factors are beyond
the Company's control. New factors emerge from time to time and it
is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor
can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business of the
Company or the extent to which any factor, or combination of
factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those
