Abstract: An apparatus system, method and computer program product for providing pre-paid telecommunications services is set forth and may include: receiving an automatic number identification (ANI) at an ANI recognition system of a service provider platform from a user, where the user having previously acquired a communications device, where a pre-paid service has been bundled with the device, and where, upon the user having depressed a long distance service (LDS) auto-key having been pre-programmed with a feature code and dialing sequence may include exposing the ANI. In another exemplary embodiment, the method may further include: upon an initial use of the communications device by the user, upon the user having depressed the LDS auto-key, receiving at the service provider platform at least one of: retailer identification; an account number; and/or the automatic number identification (ANI) of the user.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, method and computer program product for cordless radio frequency and voice over Internet protocol protocol includes a cordless component and a VOIP component. The cordless component is operable to communicate with one or more wireless handsets over a cordless radio frequency connection. The VOIP component is operable to communicate voice data over an Internet protocol connection to an IP network via packet data communications. The apparatus may include a master base station operable to communicate with one or more extension base stations remote from the master base station over a cordless RF connection, with each cordless extension operable to communicate with the wireless handset over a cordless RF connection. The cordless component and the VOIP component may be separated by a shield or insulator operable to reduce dispersal of heat or electromagnetic radiation between the components.
