Time’s up for Internet phone providers to offer 911

Wednesday, November 30th, 2005

I wonder what real effect this will have on the VoIP business model. It does not keep them from bringing on new customers, just new customer in certain areas. I am a vocal critic of the VoIP services as they are structured right now, but the deadline the FCC put on the companies was not [...]

This is a little different, but the doting and showing off are real. I received my Palm Tungsten T5 one year ago yesterday. It is still awesome and [...]

VoIP: My Point Exactly

Saturday, November 19th, 2005

My post Tuesday was to make this point about the viability of VoIP at this time. For businesses to look at this technology as an option as a replacement for their pots (plain old telephone service) lines is unrealistic. To use VoIP for additional lines for making long distance could be a better plan, but [...]

Welcome to my [...]
