Press Release Summary: VoSKY PBX-to-Skype Application Gateways Extend Skype to
China's Vast SMB Market

Press Release Body: Sunnyvale, Calif., April 29, 2008 - VoSKY today announced a
major global expansion of its VoSKY Exchange VoIP application gateway business
through an agreement with Digital China, the largest IT/Telecom products distributor
and systems integrator in China. VoSKY Exchange is the first Skype solution for
business to be sold through the Digital China network, reflecting growing market
interest in the gateway's ability to add enhanced VoIP-based business applications
and Skype trunks to any traditional or IP-based office phone system.

Effective immediately, Digital China's 6,000 VARs have access to the full VoSKY
Exchange product line, including seven four-port and eight-port editions that
seamlessly connect to any PBX with no modifications to existing PBX equipment, desk
phones or user PCs. This will enable resellers to offer low-cost, easily
deployable, value-added VoIP solutions to the 8.3 million small and medium
businesses in China.

"Skype is well-known in China with over 65 million registered users. At the same
time, nearly every business here has a need to reduce long-distance and
international phone charges, particularly given the country's position in the global
economy," said Wang Huamao, Vice President of Digital China. "We expect all of
these factors to drive demand for VoSKY Exchange and give our resellers a strong new
platform to help grow their revenues."

With VoSKY Exchange, VARs can equip business customers with free Skype calling
between company offices in different cities and/or countries, free PC-based inbound
calls to the PBX from remote or mobile users, free Web Click-to-Call connectivity
from business websites, and low-cost long distance and international calls from the
PBX to outside phones. Free interoffice communication is possible even with
disparate PBXs, using Exchange application gateways to create a private voice
network.

All VoSKY Exchange applications enable users to make or receive free or low-cost
Internet-based Skype calls using standard desk phones without PCs or headsets. The
VoSKY platform also centralizes Skype provisioning and management, eliminating the
need to install Skype on each desktop.

"Digital China is extremely influential in the Chinese IT/Telecom world and has a
vast network of resellers in every corner of the country," said David Tang, VoSKY
Vice President of Global Marketing. "The fact that they are backing our VoSKY
Exchange product line clearly demonstrates the strength of our technology, the
market opportunity for VARs, and the growing market traction of our Exchange product
line."

VoSKY Exchange is the only enterprise-grade PBX-to-Skype application gateway that
has earned Skype certification, ensuring seamless interoperability with Skype
features and services. It is also the only product in its class that has been
co-branded by Skype.
