A "Capitol"
Idea CTI EXPO Spring '99 is coming to Washington, DC this May
24-26. And, the show that brought a wealth of Internet telephony vendors and products and
services to over 23,000 attendees in 1998 is set to do it again in 1999.
Also in the Exhibit Hall, we will be featuring 5 FREE objective Learning Centers - each
of which has its hooks deep into the Internet telephony market! Each Learning Center will
contain approximately 6 vendors objectively educating you on various technologies.
The CLEC/ISP Learning Center will feature companies like Lucent, displaying IP call
waiting technology, Netcentric, showing off their IP-based fax, Wildfire, showing a
virtual/automated receptionist, and Delta Three displaying prepaid Internet telephony
calling.
There will also be an Internet Telephony Learning Center featuring Internet telephony
gateway vendors and a Voice/Data Switch Learning Center featuring the future of the PBX -
a PBX based on IP.
The Unified Messaging Learning Center will showcase several vendors educating you about
the benefits and potential reach of this technology.
Finally, the Microsoft TAPI 3.0 Learning Center will preview the latest companies
demonstrating products based on TAPI 3.0, the first IP telephony API to be supported by
Microsoft and bundled into Windows.
Here's a sneak preview of just a handful of the Internet telephony vendors who will be
