Mister Disruption Strikes Again
I wrote an article for Wired News about SIPphones, the latest venture from serial entrepreneur Michael Robertson (MP3.com, Lindows): "Launched Wednesday, SIPphone sells $65 phones that call anywhere in the world essentially for free. Users don't pay per-call or per-minute fees, just the cost of their regular broadband service and a one-time cost for the device, which arrives pre-configured with a unique phone number in the area code "747" ("S-I-P" on your phone keypad). Turn the SIPphone on, plug it in to your broadband connection and place your call. But unlike services offered by many of its established competitors, with SIPphone you can only call other compatible SIP devices, not "regular" land lines or cell phones." Link |
