| Hmm... ...wonder if Vonage will try to take this further up the appeals food chain. There seems to be some serious question as to whether Verizon's "patent" claims are even legitimate:
»Verizon VoIP Patents Legitimate?
As mentioned previously, this (Verizon/Sprint) is nothing more than the telcos trying to squash competition that they don't want to compete with because it would mean slashing their gazillion dollar profit margin to give customers a good service at a great price. I should pay $60 a month after taxes and hidden fees for a barebones, no LD phone line instead of $32.99 for unlimited calling anywhere, including Europe, with rock solid Vonage? I don't think so.
It's pretty sad that suing is Verizon/Sprint's answer to competition instead of coming up with an equitable solution and a delivering a competitive service for the same price. -- JIHAD WATCH~~9582 DEADLY TERROR ATTACKS SINCE 9/11~~TEAM DISCOVERY |
