SAN JOSE - June 11, 2001 - InternetSpeech, the leader in voice Internet and developer of netECHO™, today announced that Dr. Emdad Khan, founder, president and CEO, will speak at WAPCON 2001 in Bangalore, India on Friday, June 15, from 9:40-10:20 am. Khan will discuss the trends, issues, challenges and solutions involved with Voice Internet, Voice Portal and Wireless Internet.

"Consumers are finding it is easier and more natural to use their voice as an interface, especially in hands-busy, eyes-busy situations like driving," said Dr. Khan. "At WAPCON, I will discuss new technologies that allow consumers to access information via the Web, as well as sophisticated voice Internet solutions that businesses can adopt to better reach consumers."

WAPCON, organized by India's Wireless Internet Initiative (IWIN), will be held on June 14-15 in Bangalore, India, at the Indian Institute of Science and will focus on emerging wireless Internet.

InternetSpeech's netECHO™ technology is the first solution that provides complete access to the entire Internet with any telephone and the sound of a voice, and is based on proprietary patent pending artificial intelligence based technology that automatically reads any page written in HTML, XML, Voice XML or WML.

For businesses, InternetSpeech's highly-scalable netECHO™ technology is compatible with existing computing infrastructures and can translate applications 20 times faster and costs five times less than if VoiceXML was used, saving the time and money of having to re-write countless Web pages.
