Mobile VoIP In The UK
I found this company, MobiBoo while going through news items this AM. I’m rather impressed by the array of services they want to offer, as it shows they have thought through the approach to Mobile VoIP as a cellular replacement until Fixed Mobile Convergence comes along en masse.

AQL Offering VoIP Service For Nokia eSeries Phones In UK
I’m not at all surprised that a company is offering VoIP service to the Nokia E Series audience. What I am surprised about is their claims, for as of now I know of no way to work around NAT Traversal issues inherent in the E Series, which they need to do to get SIP based … Read more

New Version of Nokia N80 Coming, Maybe With VoIP
I’m jazzed about this new version of the Nokia N80 for a few reasons. First when Jeff Pulver bought one in Stockholm he was showing it off. Jeff likes photos and he felt it was the right one for that purpose, but it didn’t do VoIP like the shiny new E61 we all ran around … Read more
Change The Game
Jeff is so, so right about the lack of SoftPhone appreciation by the USA telcos. I mean, how stupid does one have to get to realize that if you already own a customer relationship, are you listening Time Warner, Cox, Comcast, etc. in the cable world, AT&T, Verizon and Qwest in the land line world … Read more
Where The Girls Aren’t
