KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 8 American business is softening its image -- at least when it comes to the company phone. In particular, thousands of small U.S. companies are expected to "lift the receiver" on a pink phone in support of October's Breast Cancer Awareness Month and the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. The pink phones were designed and manufactured by XBLUE Networks, a Kansas City company.

From now until January 31, 2009, XBLUE will donate 20 percent -- a minimum of $10,000 -- of the wholesale price from the sale of its two pink-model phones. The proceeds will go to support the Komen Foundation's education and research mission.

Larry Steinmetz, president and founder of XBLUE Networks, says the pink phones present a clear voice about the need for continued cancer research.



"From the home front to the workplace, breast cancer has a wide reach across our community," says Steinmetz. "We can't ignore its impact on our society, or the impact business can have calling for a cure."



The two pink phone models operate off of XBLUE's three communications systems. Steinmetz says those small businesses who make the switch can easily swap the pink models for their current phones. The company's addition of pink phones is an expansion of its already popular line of designer color phones.



The complete XBLUE communications system provides small businesses with voice mail, auto attendant, automatic call forward to a cell phone and many other features. Steinmetz says the systems are specifically priced for the small business owner.



Not surprisingly, the Komen Foundation has embraced the pink phones as well. The two models are currently on display at the organization's Dallas headquarters, and can be seen on the Komen and XBLUE websites at www.komen.org and www.XBlueNetworks.com.
