V-Access Is Real Yawner…

I also agree with others here that Vonage and others such providers will have very tough time competing with established players.

I think faith of Vonage will be similar to many dsl service providers which went out of business during 2000-2003.

Given the tremendous cost of acquisition per subscriber, churn, and free-fall in prices, start-ups like Vonage will have a tough time competing against established players like AT&T. It will be interesting to see if they make it alone (doubtful).

Vonage should also allow SIP peering, which they initially allowed but blocked off later.

Let's not get into writing about deadth of VOIP… If you turn over pages of history in telecom domain then it is very evident that Telecom price came down only when VOIP service provider came and offered unlimited calls.

Now, I am not saying that if VOIP service provier where not present than prices wouldn't had came down, but I am trying to put forth the idea that it was becase of VOIP that the telecom price came down.

What I feel is that plan will not change anything as such. Market is filled with plans like this Sprint,Alltel, T-Mobile all these provider has similar plan and that too for a long time. Still VOIP customer base is increasing.

Bottom line, plan such as this one is not a VOIP killer plan
