Its true its true

In major cities many of the ISP's serviced markets like MDU MTU that have the excess equipment and wireless experience are looking at offering wireless for like $ 49.00 a month per PC Its the answer to a big problemo.

As for DirectTV I think if you cannot handle billing problems and customer care how the heck can you do VOIP its not a cake walk to make work correctly and anyway people want to talk through a phone not a microphone and instant messenger. I mean Actiontec and their taiwan mess dont cut the mustard in VOIP.

Especially since past VOIP applications haven't been very high quality anyway. I'm not going to pay for something that people ask me not to call them up with. Cellular phone plans have gotten much more attractive with thousands of minutes and free long distance for as low as $39/month. Plus you can call from almost anywhere and not be tied down to a computer. Land based plans are also starting to see good deals like AT&T's Unlimited Plan. If something like catches on with other providers and can be used with multiple people, it might become very popular as well. I think that any ISP trying to make VOIP more attractive is going to have a tough time beating current plans that are slowly getting better. It will have to take a big step up in quality and become cheaper.
