Suing the big player might just scare the others to not violate patents if they are. Vonage said they can't patent all their service so Vonage is pretty much screwed.
I'm still waiting to see when the FCC decides VOIP providers have to pay that Termination charge like POTS customers do. That'll hurt.
One thing is for sure: Vonage better stop ads all over the place and save money for legal battles and fixing their patent-infringing service. |

Verizon vs. Comcast
Comcast still holds PSTN switching contracts back from when AT&T was in the cable business.
Not all of Comcast's voice customers are VoIP!
Fiberguy knows what I mean!!!
Note to Verizon: not all of your targets in this are regional, or smaller companies with less than 3 million subscribers.
I think I'll be filing an Amicus Curiae brief with the court on this one*.
