VANCOUVER, March 29 -- CounterPath Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: CTPS), a leading provider of VoIP (Voice over IP) and Video over IP SIP softphones, today announced that the latest version of its free SIP softphone, X-Lite 3.0, is now available as a free download for the Mac operating system.
X-Lite 3.0 is based on eyeBeam 1.5, CounterPath's carrier grade commercial SIP softphone client, and provides high quality audio/video capabilities, instant messaging and presence management in combination with zero-touch configuration, a comprehensive address book and more. Individual users looking for a feature-rich and easy-to-use softphone to use in conjunction with their existing VoIP service can download X-Lite 3.0 for Windows or Mac free of charge from CounterPath's website. The software has also proven to be beneficial to companies seeking to test SIP-based solutions within a corporate or service provider network.
Since CounterPath's first launch of X-Lite in April 2003, CounterPath has logged more than 2,500,000 downloads, with an estimated 130,000 downloads each month (based on data from the past 6 months).
"In providing a feature-rich, free softphone download, we are offering consumers an invitation to engage in VoIP-based communications and to explore the convenience of using a softphone in a multi-media context," said Donovan Jones, President and COO of CounterPath. "Our aim is to support and accelerate mainstream adoption of VoIP while providing an opportunity for innovation and growth within the SIP community."
