PalmOne will soon enable native Exchange sync support, which will not only eliminate the need for 3rd party products, but also give total control to the user. This can’t be too good for Good, and seems to work around the need for RIM’s software as well. I’ll have to ask about this stuff [...]

EarthLink to Offer Free Calling Between Computers Over the Web
October 5th, 2004 · Comments · VOIP, marketing
Earthlink goes VOIP…
For now, Earthlink’s phone service will only allow its customers to call one another via their computers instead of through their regular phones.

The Need For Softphones
October 4th, 2004 · Comments · VOIP, marketing
Andy at VoIP Watch has been traveling a fair bit lately and as expected, been doing a lot of calling over VOIP. As he’s moved along, all the calling has been over softphone since they make it easier to route around hotel port blocking as well as basic configuration issues.
I totally agree with his [...]

Time Warner Cable VOIP offering in NYC
October 4th, 2004 · Comments · VOIP, marketing
The VoIP Weblog notes the launch of Time Warner Cable’s VOIP service in NYC. The pricing is out of whack for VOIP, but certainly less than you are probably paying Verizon for unlimited calling. Seems they’ve chosen to target pricing against Cablevision which makes no sense, since you can’t pick what cable company [...]

October 1st, 2004 · Comments · gadgets and technology, marketing
I’d consider this a test… have to wait to see if people care for this over text before they roll into other areas like the US — though the US is much more voice oriented than Europe which has been quite comfortable with text.
T-Mobile is to become the latest European mobile operator to [...]
