The latest to break into the VoIP market in the U.S., Globe7 has launched with a unique advertising platform in the Internet phone business. The new Globe7 3.0 soft phone offers users the opportunity to earn free international and local minutes in exchange for watching their favorite real-time video feeds, such as movie trailers, music videos, news, and sports. Meanwhile, each video comes branded with a 30 or 60 second advertising spot that runs at the beginning and end of the feed.

Launched in July, the Globe7 3.0 phone is a free downloadable soft phone that offers video downloading, instant messaging and other features on the cutting edge of the VoIP market. If they sign up for Globe7 3.0, VoIP users in the United States receive a real U.S.-based telephone number, which allows them to make and receive telephone calls from any computer, any cell phone and any landline - connecting to anywhere in the world.

The launch of Globe7 3.0 will be followed in the next 60 days by the launch of a new USB phone/pda, a Wi-Fi capable hard phone that connects to the Internet through any Wi-Fi hotspot without a computer. The Globe7 hard phone turns any laptop into an easy-to-manage portable telephone, with all the features of a personal digital assistant - email, tasks, calendar, contacts, and Internet capability.

Globe7(TM) provides its VOIP technology in a private label agreement with Lycos Phone and the company may expand its private label business in the coming months. In February 2006, Globe7(TM) debuted its Globe7 model in Europe and already it has registered 18 million downloads from communities all over the world.
