The nation's second-largest telco will soon launch a Voice over Internet Protocol-based telephony product aimed at small- to medium-sized businesses in Australia.
Net phone companies like Net2Phone are pinning their hopes on an unlikely player: Microsoft. Telecommunications executives and analysts say recent moves by the software giant into Internet telephony may be the last chance for the technology to reach the mainstream.
Australian internet telephony minnow Freshtel, a consumer player that recently started providing enterprise services, today revealed to the ASX it had depleted around half its cash reserves over the past year.
Australia's third-largest internet service provider iiNet today said it had signed up more than 30,000 local customers to its naked DSL service and more than 80,000 to its internet telephony offering.
Australian start-up Freshtel today said it expected to launch a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service for mobile phone users locally within weeks, after a successful trial of its dual-mode technology with UK mega-retailer Tesco.
Legislators must not make the mistake of subjecting Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) offerings to the same rules as telephony services, the heads of the global Internet regulator said.
Businesses were abuzz about voice over Internet Protocol technology in 2003, announcing new deployments almost daily, but the reality is that the actual work is only just beginning.
