Expect ot see vonage ads during the super bowl, they are trying to go public (one reason why sprint filed the voip patent lawsuit against them (not the RTI one over LCR) claiming sprint owns 100 patents that cover voip in general)... Sprint filed right after rumors started to surface about backers for the IPO. With 1.25M customers and the cheapest plan being $25/mo (last time I looked anyway) and many customers either making additional calls that arent free, additional lines that are extra, additional whatever ... Vonage has a high gross income, although I dont know what their net income is, they likely have enough for a bowl ad. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378 http://www.sacaug.org/ Sacramento Asterisk Users Group
