Looks a lot like him, to be sure, but it's not (though he did show up once on Voyager).

I cannot see those, but the freeze frames I did seemed fairly clear,
ST filming was Nov 2007 to Mar 2008, and he interrupted his film carreer starting Feb 6, 2008. I don't see where that precludes his work between the two.

From the above posts and some research done by myself Kal Penn is an actor who was half of the duo Harold and Kumar in a couple of films, John Cho playing Harold to Kal Penn as Kumar.
John Cho is in Star Trek hence the link to people believing that Kal Penn has a cameo.

The above post is correct.
I can view the links to the photobucket shots now. The correct character has been frozen in those shots. However, there is great distortion, Chirs Pine does not look remotely recognizable, nor Zoe Saldana in the second pic.
When I froze my meager 32inch, he was quite clearly the twin of Kal.
I would be interested to hear that he actually has a name other than Kal.

Other than being a bit blurry, I don't see any distortion. Looks like Pine and Saldana to me. Pine is capped mid-shout, so he looks a bit off, but it's still easily recognizable.
It aint Kal. Accept and move on.
