An Alternative Roaming Solution From Argela


ISTANBUL, February 10 /PRNewswire/ --     Argela, a leading next-generation telecom solution provider,
today announced their alternative roaming solution has been launched by Turk
Telekom. The service is called wireless roaming(WIRO) and enables customers
to make calls from their dual-mode handsets with Wi-Fi support irrespective
of their location, and also in the absence of a SIM card in the handset. In
addition to dual mode handsets, WIRO can be used with PC and any SIP based
phone. The service is available through the Internet and provides the users
with very attractive tariffs, apart from enabling them to stay connected even
if they are abroad. Although Turk Telekom is the incumbent fixed/line telecom
operator in Turkey, WIRO removes the boundaries of coverage for the company
and offers a perfect roaming solution to its customers.

Commenting on the issue Dr. Paul Doany, CEO of Turk Telekom,
said: "WIRO added the always-carried on feature to the fixed phones. Now our
customers can make calls wherever they are and they are charged by their
fixed phone tariff. This definitely reduces the cost of communication."

Mr. Bulent Kaytaz, CEO of Argela said: "WIRO, being a service
developed on Argela's patented innovation Convergence Gateway, provides real
benefits to the telecom operators. It definitely increases customer loyalty
and provides a new revenue stream. We are happy to note that Turk Telekom is
getting very positive feedback and we are very enthusiastic to support Turk
Telekom even further in this convergence journey in the future."
