Voice over IP has reached some major milestones in 2008 in both the enterprise and consumer ends of the market but how long can traditional telcos continue to fight against this disruptive technology?
Legislation setting up the regulations for the National Broadband Network could be introduced to parliament as early as this week, which means Telstra will soon get some clarity about whether it's in a lot of trouble or just a little bit.
