Who will be first to offer free voip to voip
So many companys are offering voip services,most of them are not intercompatable to offer free voip to voip as they all promise.
The finera betamax range (voipbuster,voipcheap,voipstunt etc) seem to be interconnectable for free,but try calling another serice like skype or vonage etc and you pay more than you would normally anyway. Like the mobile phone co's in the UK,calling cross networks is never cheap on a pay as you go service,or you have to load up a phone with credit (eg 3 network,£25 for 500 mins,any network) to make it worthwhile. Voip is meant to be free voip to voip,so why are we all on different providers and services??! I bet most people reading this have at least 2 different providers on their pc's! Who will be the first to bring true voip to voip FREE to the masses??

Landline companies are going to die a very very slow death in my opinion. And they are all realising this, hence diversifying in to VoIP, and other converged systems.
As long as you have huge companies involved, there will be stupid games and rules played to try get one up on their competitors. I'm not sure it will ever happen....? An interesting post though Barry, what does everyone else think? Matt

An afterthought,
Asterisk, and the new asterisk@home replacement trixbox, can both be configured to call out with the cheapest provider for that particular call. Perhaps this is a hole to be filled by a new company... an everyday none techy service that will route your call the cheapest route... not everyone has computer junk lying around that they can turn in to a nice little asterisk box, or the time and know how for that matter! If a service like that did exist, then eventualy it would negate compaines reason for having higher inter provider charges, then perhaps they would give up and make it all free! Does any of that make sense? Its been a long day! Matt
