| Makes VoIP even more Useless
The closer that the price of VoIP service gets to that of traditional telegraph service, the more customers they will lose. Don't VoIP companies know that their only appeal whatsoever is low prices?

You know, I can understand all the hate if they were tacking on $10 for the "fee", but its $1.50. Sure, I know the retorts will be "Why stop there? They'll just keep raising it." but that's contrary to what they've done thus far. Vonage actually dropped their price to remain at the top of the pack, and as it's been mentioned before they've had the "fee" from the get-go. You naysayers can keep your POTS, I'm free from SBC's clutches, with their over-bloated prices and shoddy customer support. For those seriously considering Vonage (I use) or any other VOIP for that matter, do it. With as much competition that exists, we won't be seeing huge price increases any time soon. You know, you can be a hater if its justified, but don't go off the deep-end just because someones decided to play catch-up with the rest of the providers. It's only a matter of time before Packet8 raises their rates to be more in line with what the "heavy-hitters" charge, especially since Packet8 still has a long way to go as far as exposure and commercial viability is concerned (all the tech sites whore themselves for Vonage...where's Packet8's love?). |
