regulatory defeat and their own
broadband shizophrenia, has decided to make friends with the cable industry. The company has started recommending users sign up for cable broadband to fuel their CallVantage VoIP service (
USAToday), to better market their service and strike back at the bells in the same breath. The marketing agreement was struck with Comcast, Time Warner, Cox, Charter Communications, and Mediacom. It will be interesting to see if this agreement lasts as those Cable providers expand their own VoIP services.
