Keating On WiMax

I am full agreement with Keatings view on the whole subject of WiMax and AT&T. If you look at AT&T’s efforts the last year they are migrating away from the traditional telco type business and looking at where access will be in the future in order to keep traffic on their managed network.

VoiceGlo and Office Depot

Office Depot obviously looks at VoIP as an accessory for the PC which is why they have made a move to sell five plans from VoiceGlo. For VoiceGlo this is a big win. For Office Depot I think it is the first stab into VoIP and clearly not their last.

AT&T and Linksys Announce TA’s
