NEWARK, NJ - September 14, 2000 -- Net2Phone Inc. (NASDAQ: NTOP) and LG Electronics, a major global player in electronics & telecommunications, today announced that they have signed an agreement whereby Net2Phone’s Voice over IP technology will be incorporated into LG’s Voice over IP (VoIP) gateways for sale throughout the world.
