			<title>Purple Communications Announces Voluntary Delisting</title>
			<link>http://www.alldeaf.com/relay-services/71572-purple-communications-announces-voluntary-delisting.html</link>
			<pubDate>Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:25:18 GMT</pubDate>
			<description><![CDATA[*as predicted last week!!!!!!!!!*



Purple Communications Announces Voluntary Delisting from
                              NASDAQ

NOVATO, Calif., Nov 05, 2009 -- Purple Communications(TM), Inc.
("Purple" or "the Company") (PRPL) announced today that it has given
formal notice to the Nasdaq Stock Market of the Company's intention to
voluntarily delist its common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market.
Purple will remain a reporting company and will continue to be required
to file periodic reports with the SEC.

The decision to delist has been reached as part of the Company's
strategy to conserve resources and manage costs and administrative
burden given the current investigations by certain government
regulators, which investigations have been previously described and
disclosed in the Company's SEC filings; accordingly the Company's Board
of Directors concluded that the compliance costs, listing fees and
expenses and administrative burdens of maintaining the listing of its
common stock with Nasdaq outweighed the benefits at this time.

Purple currently anticipates that it will file with the SEC and Nasdaq
a Form 25 relating to the delisting of its common stock on or about
November 16, 2009, with the delisting of its common stock taking effect
no earlier than ten days thereafter. As a result, Purple expects that
the last day of trading of its common stock on the NASDAQ Capital
Market will be on or about November 27, 2009.

Following the delisting, Purple's common stock is expected to be quoted
on the Pink Sheets, a centralized electronic quotation service for
over-the-counter securities, so long as market makers demonstrate an
interest in trading in the Company's stock. For more information about
this service, please see Electronic OTC Markets - Quotation, Trading Systems, OTCQX, OTC Issuer Services (http://www.pinksheets.com). However, the Company can
give no assurance that trading in its common stock will continue on the
Pink Sheets or any other securities exchange or quotation medium.]]></description>

			<description>This is important to know about relay abuse. I realize registering ph# now will help but the worms will still be out there. Being new to relay, I found these websites extremely helpful and hope others will add to this. On another note, not all relay services are alike. Do the research, ask others and by all means if its not registered with the FCC, then stay clear of it.

I am glad that FCC says no because if you want one and you gotta to pay for it.  If you want to develop one, find a investor and not the FCC.

FCC is base on TRS funds but where says about DEAF Conference calls.  I found its lame and embrassing to have someone is whining and disappoint that only way to get is hearing person use Deaf Conference that doesn't sound like a access communicate with FCC's TRS fund for that?

I found shame and silly for Kelby make VLog about it.
