EDISON, N.J. -- Vonage, a leading provider of broadband phone service, today announced a co-branded partnership with Ygnition Networks (formerly Interquest Communications) to deploy broadband telephony service to Ygnition's more than 130,000 Luxury Apartment Units served. These services will be deployed across eight U.S. states: Washington, California, Florida, Colorado, Texas, Utah, Arizona and Oregon. Vonage will offer Ygnition's broadband Internet subscribers unlimited local and long distance calling throughout the United States and Canada for a flat rate.

Ygnition Networks is the first multi-dwelling broadband provider to partner with Vonage to deploy an affordable telephony service to its subscriber base. Subscribers residing or working in its broadband deployed communities will be offered Vonage's full array of calling plans. all plans include most of the standard telephony features like caller ID, call waiting and voicemail and a number of proprietary features at no additional cost.

"By introducing our first partnership with an ISP provider that concentrates on connecting consumers within their local residences and single office/home offices clearly illustrates the importance of broadband telephony," said Cyrus Driver, vice president, Wholesale Sales and Canadian Market. "This partnership offers Ygnition Networks the opportunity to enhance its company's offering and revenues, while reducing churn, thereby increasing the return on investment on existing DSL/Cable Modem/T1 infrastructure. Vonage enables Ygnition to offer inexpensive voice services to their customers with near-zero capital investment and operational cost, while leveraging two trusted brand names, Vonage and Ygnition Networks."

"We are pleased to be working with Vonage," said Glenn Meyer, CEO of Ygnition. "With a hard-earned reputation for service excellence within our industry, it was important for us to find a Digital Voice partner that we felt comfortable with. It was also important to find a partner that could serve our growing national footprint and Vonage was a perfect fit. We're confident that our valued subscribers will be well served by this partnership. Along with our new Cable Television offering, Vonage gives Ygnition a compelling bundle of Broadband services to offer our Real Estate partners."
