JAJAH User Advisory - eBay Starts Removing JAJAH Buttons From Marketplace


MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, October 4 /PRNewswire/ --

- In Some Countries eBay Informs JAJAH Sellers That the JAJAH Voice
Communication Service is not Allowed on the Marketplace

JAJAH, the world's most innovative phone company, announced today that
eBay has informed some of its users that placing JAJAH Buttons on offers
within the eBay marketplace is not allowed.

JAJAH Buttons are available in 122 countries and provide trust and safety
by safeguarding eBay Seller IDs while providing enhanced eBay Buyer
information and protection. Unlike many web-based VoIP solutions, JAJAH
Buttons connects every buyer and every seller completely anonymous. JAJAH
Buttons requires no download, no headset, no broadband necessary, and works
on every phone.

eBay's email to JAJAH seller's states: "The listing was removed because
it violated the eBay Inappropriate Links policy... links or other connections
to live chat systems are not permitted."

"Our vision was simply to bring voice communication to one of the worlds
greatest marketplaces for eCommerce. With millions of registered users, JAJAH
is hardly an "inappropriate" organization. We were seeing great excitment for
JAJAH buttons on eBay and we are dissapointed that some of our users listings
are now being removed. We are currently seeking to get clarification from
eBay as the situation varies from country to country. While we get positive
feedback from within eBay in several countries we see other countries
removing listings that contain JAJAH buttons." says JAJAH Co-Founder Roman
Scharf.

Sleek in its design, simple in its creation, extensive in its
functionality, and with complete privacy control, JAJAH Buttons are a perfect
fit for the eBay community. As an eBay Powerseller, you design your personal
JAJAH Button for your eBay auction. Creation of the button runs through your
JAJAH Account and is free. Buyers can call you through the button on your
eBay account while you keep complete control over who can call you from where
and when.

"The bigger issue at play here is the open nature of technology and the
next generation of the eCommerce" said Daniel Mattes, Co-Founder. "We believe
in a world where the lines of commerce, content and communication are
blurring. We see from the explosion of Facebook and others that an open
environment with the freedom to innovate is a much better solution. We will
work on behalf of our users to ask eBay to reconsider"

JAJAH encourages its users to vote with their voice and join the JAJAH
campaign to "FREE YOUR VOICE", by placing the JAJAH buttons on as many
properties on the web, blogs or emails. "How can users help? Talk JAJAH - go
to http://www.jajah.com - sign up - vote with your voice. This is about
making a difference and making the web a forum for voice communication - join
us in that mission."
