 PhoenixSoft’s CMS platform selected for enhanced pre-paid calling card & voice mail services

Phoenix, Arizona...February 8, 2006...PhoenixSoft, Inc., a provider of telephony solutions for converged networks, announced today that Western Wireless International (“WWI”) and its Communication Cellulaire d’Haiti (“COMCEL”) operating company in Haiti have implemented the PhoenixSoft CMS platform into their communications network.  The CMS now provides pre-paid calling card and voice mail services throughout the island of Haiti.

PhoenixSoft’s CMS call processing platform enables service providers like WWI to offer any basic or enhanced telephony service to any customer, anywhere in the world.  Some of these services include:

• TDM and/or VoIP Applications
