Re: It is About time
Until EVERY home, apt or other living arrangements can be serviced/supplied with an internet connection that can support VOIP with the same quality of service, reliability and compatibility of POTS the POTS phone connections will be around. I have VOIP for a business line but it sucks most of the time because the miserable DSL service I get. VOIP will be a force (if not the de facto standard of delivery) to reckon with when reliable Internet service is actually available and not just the statistical reports created to mask the failures of the various Internet providers. When one has to reset their VOIP Router every day in order to receive calls, it doesn't generate warm "fuzzies" about the service being provided. In the big scheme of things I do agree with you; continued development of VOIP will eventually create a much different landscape for voice communications. |
