Actually when I was used to hearing it (back in Portland, OR) it was the callsign of the Intel Corporate Shuttle. They were operating BE-1900s and ERJ-145s. This was current as of last summer.
Intel's jets have the callsign "Tech Jet". I used to flight instruct at HIO and it was always fun to see those guys fly in!

The Intel jets were managed by EJM for years and had the callsign "Jetspeed." They later dropped EJM for Aerodynamics Inc (Callsign "Dyna Jet"). "Tech Jet" must be fairly recent, or prior to EJM.
EJM is privately owned aircraft either charter or fully managed by EJM. Some use the callsign Jetspeed, some do not - especially on the charter managed side where they may elect to use Jetspeed on charters or might not. I never did because I wasn't used to listening to "Jetspeed..." and I'd miss the calls. Jetspeed couldn't, at least a few years ago, be used internationally. It was domestic use only and you filed under your N number for those charters.
