Net2Phone Routes Billionth Minute
Newark, NJ - November 28, 2000 --- Net2Phone Inc.

“Net2Phone’s mission of delivering voice and enhanced services on IP networks is clearly demonstrated by our significant growth in minutes,” said Howie Balter, Chief Executive Officer of Net2Phone. “Just three months ago, we were routing 2 million minutes daily. Just yesterday, we routed close to 8 million minutes.
