If this is a BYOB offering, with no QoS, it better be cheap. It will need to be a lot cheaper then say Cox's Digital Telephone or other MSO's VOIP. |

| reply to openbox9 said by openbox9 :You might be surprised. AT&T is probably tired of losing their bread and butter landline business to MSOs and other VoIP providers. This is AT&T's chance to undercut the competition and regain customers. AT&T's expense to deploy a new VoIP service is minimal, so we may be lucky and see some competitive pricing. I certainly hope you are correct, but so far, they've never come in cheaper, even with a subpar product. (See: U-Verse) -- Linux Haters Unite! |

| I think this is a good move for them, although I'll be curious to see pricing. I can't see them pricing it much lower than the digital voice products from the MSOs ... and I'll fall out of my seat if it's less than any of the indie VoIP companies. -- Linux Haters Unite! |
