I don’t know how heavily I would tout the fact that some ex MCIers are starting a VoIP company, but I can’t hold that against them and beleive that everyone gets a fair chance. The company, SunRocket wants to bring a difference to the VoIP game.
They plan to offer what they call residential primary-line phone service
at an all-inclusive price of $24.95 per month, with no activation charges, hidden fees or “gotchas”, making it easy and risk-free for mainstream consumers to make the leap to state-of-the-art Internet telephony. Now available in Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Boston, SunRocket will be available in cities across America by the end of the year.
They are bundling some free International calling into the plan and a free second number in attempts to be different. According to their spokesperson, they have aquired a Sylantro application server and are working with a few network carriers that were unnamed for “exchanging traffic.”
Om also has a perspective on it.
