color=#0000ff size=2>Why do we need to promote voip adoption? Its not as
reliable and suffers from call quality issues. The people that are
running around screaming about promoting VoIP (as in ITSP's) are actually
doing more harm than good to the market. The only reliable VoIP service is if
you are getting it directly from your circuit carrier so it never goes out
onto the open internet. If you want to play in that space as a residential
user, then be my guest, but in the business market where companies have to
rely on their phone service to be up and actually be able to use their phones,
then VoIP is not the right choice today. So NO, we should not do anything we
can to promote it.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
