VoIP Carrier ElephantTalk Selects Blueslice HLR for Mobile Expansion

Montreal, Canada, July 25, 2007 - Blueslice Networks announced today that ElephantTalk has selected the Blueslice HLR with enhanced features, upon which they will build a global GSM operation to enhance their existing fixed and VoIP offerings.

ElephantTalk, a subsidiary of Elephant Talk Communication, Inc. (OTCB:ETLK), is one of Europe's leading VoIP carriers, leveraging their global network and interconnection in many countries through telecom licenses. In 2007, ElephantTalk is launching a global GSM offering with WiFi and WiMAX projects, allowing enterprises, ISPs, and service providers to deliver converged mobile services to their customers. This turnkey solution from ElephantTalk enables a full triple-play with content distribution from entertainment companies and advanced multimedia devices.

The Blueslice Converged Subscriber Platform 3000™ includes the ngHLR 3000™, a next gen Home Location Register for GSM/GPRS/UMTS networks and features such as Advanced Low Cost Roaming, HLR/HSS-based Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC), and hosting functions. In particular, the Multi-IMSI capability will allow ElephantTalk to economically deploy a competitive global service.

"ElephantTalk is already known as a provider of telecommunications services: we already have the interconnection agreements in place, the infrastructure backend installed, a distribution network, and the brand recognition. It only makes sense for us to expand into the mobile market and to do it as a global GSM and FMC player with control over our network," said Martin Zuurbier, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Technology Officer of ElephantTalk. "The Blueslice subscriber platform is the best solution that meets our requirements."

"We saw a good fit with ElephantTalk," said Frederic Bastien, Vice President of Product Line Management at Blueslice. "We've established that we do not only provide a converged subscriber engine for carriers, but also an unmatched feature list for VoIP operators making a mobile play. We expect to see great results from this global operator."
