Disrupters: No more phone bills

Vonage, MagicJack and other such VoIP services are already luring customers away from traditional wireline phone services, but they all require users to pay a monthly/yearly fee. But there's a disrupter which only requires users to pay for the cost of the device - and no service fees thereafter.

  1. It will be interesting to see as high bandwidth and wireless access becomes more and more ubiquitous. It would be interesting to see if some of the open source and fully free platforms take off under this environment. Products such as Asterix http://www.asterisk.org/ are fully free and can be used to not only provide home VOIP for free, but also PBX for corporations.
