Raketu Debuts LaunchPad Interface, Integrates ipTV, VoIP, Video On Demand, and IM/SMS in a Single Desktop Application: First Ever Global Chat Capab
NEW YORK (BusinessWire EON) March 21, 2007 --
"We currently have over a million consumers using our voice over IP (VoIP), ipTV streaming video and other services globally," said Greg Parker, President of Raketu. "We wanted to give them a single interface where they could interface directly to all their voice over IP (VoIP) calling, IM/SMS exchanges, and ipTV streaming video viewing in a single application/service, while creating a global chat area where friends, family, and other Raketu service subscribers could have real-time interaction around the streaming video programs they are watching."
Raketu Technical Features
Through Raketu's new LaunchPad interface, users are able to watch ipTV streaming video and VOD content from around the world while interacting with each other through Raketu's voice over IP (VoIP) and other peer-to-peer (p2p) communications services, from a single integrated application.
Raketu uses a unique peer-to-peer (p2p) technology, which allows the highest quality VoIP calling and the highest VoIP call-completion without the security issues associated with supernodes and other traditional VoIP services/p2p technologies. Specifically, Raketu does not use a consumer's computer for routing the VoIP communications of other users.
Raketu voice over IP (VoIP) and ipTV streaming video service runs over any Internet connection. Anyone on the Internet with a Windows PC and a headset can start using Raketu's VoIP, ipTV streaming video, and other services immediately. Currently, all pre-paid customers of Raketu's RakOut dial-out VoIP services enjoy free VoIP calling to over 40 countries. All VoIP calls to locations in these countries are free regardless of where the VoIP calls originate.
Raketu offers streaming video ipTV content from Media Global Intertainment (MGI), which includes exclusive content seen on the syndicated hit TV music video program Fearless Music (www.fearlessmusic.tv) and NamcheTV (www.namche.cz), a sports/adventure channel from the Czech Republic. Raketu's VOD content includes pay-for Sports, Horror, Extreme Wrestling, Brazilian Models, Soccer Highlights, Extreme Sports Brazil, Medical Minutes, and other entertainment.
Raketu's new LaunchPad interface integrating VoIP, ipTV streaming video and other services is available for download immediately from www.Raketu.tv, or alternatively www.Raketu.com, and can be used in both Windows and Vista operating environments. Support for Macintosh is planned for Q2'07.
