Clariti Wireless Messaging Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Clariti Telecommunications Communicating information, including data, text, pictures, voice and video over long distance. See communications.  International, Ltd. (Nasdaq: CLRI CLRI Central Leather Research Institute (India) ), announced today that it has begun operating its new wireless voicemail See voice mail.  service in Jacksonville, Florida “Jacksonville” redirects here.

Clariti's new wireless service, called Clariti Wireless Voicemail, delivers voicemail messages wirelessly to a small portable device called the Voca(TM) Wireless Voicemail Player. Clariti began selling its new service to customers last week directly through its Jacksonville, Florida retail store. Clariti plans to initially limit sales and distribution of its Voca(TM) Player and confirm that its network and business systems are functioning properly before implementing a major marketing and sales campaign Noun 1. sales campaign - an advertising campaign intended to promote sales

 in Jacksonville, and expanding its service into other cities in the U.S. and overseas.

For a low monthly fee, customers of Clariti's new service not only have access to a full-featured voicemail system, but also have the added advantage of receiving their voicemail messages wirelessly while on the go. This saves time and money since users no longer have to wait to get back to their phones or spend money calling into a voicemail box to listen to messages. Clariti's customers can also have all their work, home, or cellular phone calls forwarded to a single Voca(TM) Player, relieving them from the burden of calling in to multiple voicemail boxes to retrieve messages.

Clariti's new service also includes a group voicemail feature. This gives customers the ability to send one message to the Voca(TM) Players of a group of friends or colleagues at the same time. This feature should be valuable for groups of individuals with common interests, ranging from employees in corporations to students in high schools or on college campuses.

In the near future, Clariti also plans to add enhanced features to its wireless voicemail service such as enabling users to send voice messages to a Voca(TM) Player via a Web interface; using text-to-speech technology to forward email messages to Voca(TM) Players; and allowing a customer to select from a variety of personalized per·son·al·ize

Joe Smith, Executive Vice-President of Clariti commented, "The positive results of our field testing in Jacksonville and Boynton Beach, Florida Boynton Beach is a city in Palm Beach County, Florida, United States.

As of 2006, the city had a population of 66,714 according to the University of Florida, Bureau of Economic and Business Research.  gave us confidence that we were ready to begin operating our new wireless service. Wireless Voicemail is the first commercial application using our proprietary digital wireless technology called ClariCAST(TM). This is an important milestone for our company, but just the beginning because we believe there are many opportunities worldwide for our wireless technology. In addition, we feel there will be many opportunities in the future to integrate ClariCAST(TM) technology with other products and services that could benefit from a low cost wireless extension."

Clariti's digital wireless technology, called ClariCAST(TM), utilizes existing spectrum of FM radio stations. This allows Clariti to set up a ClariCAST(TM) system without the expensive spectrum acquisition, tower construction, and maintenance costs required to set up and operate most wireless systems in use today. In addition, using existing spectrum of FM radio stations means Clariti can cover an entire metropolitan area with only 2 - 3 stations, deploy a system very rapidly, and expand worldwide without modifying it's technology since the FM band is the same in most countries around the world.
