Interview with the coolest VoIP booth at Fall VON 2006

Renars Jeromans, CTO, http://www.TIVI.LV, http://www.tivi.com/

By Suzanne Bowen, (Check out Don Quixote de la Mancha y la VoIP)

q: what do you think about the concept of DIDxchange and also the practicality of it?
ans: Our company likes the idea of DIDX, for it allows to acquire DIDs all over the world without even getting telco license.For a small company, it is an excellent opportunity to ename their clients with services that were available only for the telco incumbents. I hope this concept will earn trust and will satisfy our small retail client base in Latvia.

q: describe TIVI.lv technologies.
ans: flatrate data plan, VoIP and video on smartphones over 3G, EV-DO, GPRS and WiFi. Video calls in cross platform environment (mobile phone -> PC), software development for mobile platforms, customization/rebranding of the software for ISPs, VoIP operators and virtual communities.
