Re: But lets see their retention
said by starstuff  :said by NewLife :I would love to revisit this article in about 6 months to see their retention percent. Sure almost anyone with a new service can add tons of users during a period of time, but the real profits don't start until you have retention of those customers. Right now probably VOIP is not mature enough to drop your POTS but eventually as VOIP matures to a more robust service people will drop their land lines. Telcos will be the biggest losers if they don't adapt fast enough to the changing market. 11K/week = 572K/year wow! half a million users just for TW... I wonder how Vonage, Packet8 and others are doing? Not good news for the telcos  I use Vonage. Without a cell phone, I would not consider using VOIP. |

Bethlehem, PA | I think his intent was to say that he uses Vonage, but he would never consider using VOIP if he didn't have cell service as a backup.

Well damn! Of course I know Vonnage is VOIP. My point was that I want the backup that a cell phone provides. Believe it or not, sometimes my cable goes out. |
