EDMONTON, Oct. 11 /CNW/ - TOTAL TELCOM INC. (TSX Venture: TTZ) announces
today the participation of its wholly owned subsidiary, ROM Communications
Inc. (ROM) in the deployment of commercial grade water purification equipment
developed for 3rd world distribution. Working with a US based Equipment
Manufacturer and Distribution Company, ROM has successfully developed and
tested its proprietary interface protocol to the water purification
equipment's onboard electronics. ROM will be supplying custom satellite
hardware, the communication link and will be responsible to monitor equipment
performance, collect and report on daily water production and usage. A

deployment of a complete water purification system in Haiti for its final
evaluation before being made available for global distribution. Management
anticipates a significant contribution to its revenues commencing early to mid
2006 from this initiative.
