"By the end of of 2002, Comcast had roughly 1.4 million VoIP subscribers. Cox Communications served 718,420 while Cablevision laid claim to 12,240 VoIP customers."
No, Comcast does not have 1.4 million VoIP customers, nor does Cox have 718,420. They do, however, have that many regular, old fashioned circuit switched customers. I can't speak for Cablevision because I know they've been rolling out some VoIP service, so that number may be right.

| Its only a big deal because its only been relatively recently that Cable Labs has started approving PacketCable devices required to offer VoIP over the cable plant. Thanks for the update.

But in the context of the article its misleading.
That data needs to be simply removed since its not related to VoIP. Don't you think? Just an article error. We're all human.  |

maybe circuit switched but it is powered over the cable and not the twisted pair of regular phone compaines..so for that much is clearer and more reliable. So it is not your everyday regular old phone service |
