Powell Warns Telcos on VoIP

Michael Powell yesterday told the incumbent carriers, watch out. VoIP is likely to change their world.

Haven’t I been saying that here for months, as has Om Malik and Jeff Pulver. The VoIP game is only beginning. Yesterday I used my AT&T CallVantage to organize a conference call. Cost. Free.

For conference calls for up to ten people, you can’t beat that. The set up was easy (other than their bonehead Eastern Time Zone Only and defaulting to Eastern Standard Time–something which according to their crack PR lead Gary Morganstern–said will be fixed in the next release most likely)

With services like that, the local telcos are truely going into major–what do we do mode.
