No, I didn’t confuse Skype with Vonage. What happened is Mobile Diva and non-broadband blogger Darla Mack came to a realization after spending time with a bunch of Nokia Nseries devices most of which work with Gizmo Project. It seems she’s come to the same conclusion others have come to. With Gizmo Project and others … Read more
The investors in Fonality should be laughing all the way to the bank. This story about Nortel is a classic example of great reporting and lousy PR. Congrats to Tom Keating for making such a spectacle out of Nortel.
