Fred Wilson says, “My friend and VOIP pioneer Tom Evslin has been saying for years that VOIP will be ubiquitous by 2010. I think he is right about that, but possibly it will be even sooner.” Not likely Fred: less than a million people are using it right now as a “Vonage” type service. If the take-up rate doubles every year, it will still be 64 million VoIP consumers in 2010. Wouldn’t call it ubiquitous. I think voice-over-the-internet, and not VoIP will eventually be subsumed in the over all “communications equation.”
