| Re: Bye Bye inexpensive phone service. said by Timmn :After Verizon gets done with Vonage, it will be in a better position to do what it does best, screw the consumer. Net2phone has been doing VOIP since 1996, according to its website at - »www.net2phone.com/about/
If Verizon's patents are older than Net2phone, then they've got about 6 years at most for them to run out (patents are for 17 years). If they're newer than Net2Phone then there has to be a solution that doesn't violate Verizon's patents as Net2Phones VOIP predates the patents.
Either a 6 year wait, or figure out what Net2Phone was up to back in 1996 for VOIP if the Verizon ruling holds on appeal. -- "People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use." | |

| Verizon sucks! I hate Verizon, overpriced with crappy service.
I have vonage right now and it works extremely well for me.
If I have to switch back to Verizon I will be one unhappy camper.
50 bucks a month for basic service with no bells and whistles, no long distance no caller ID nada. | |

Hell they lied to the court about a work around...do you think they are going to tell the truth to investors and customers? | |
