Mobile VoIP: ‘An Unstoppable Train’

Mobile VoIP: 'An Unstoppable Train'

Unstrung Insider has released a new report entitled Mobile VoIP: A Disruptive Service Goes Mainstream, describing the growth of mobile VoIP as "an unstoppable train."

As report author John Blau writes, "The penetration of smartphones, the emergence of new IP-based, voice-enabling techniques, and the growing availability of attractive flat-rate mobile data plans have helped spur adoption of new mobile VoIP services. Even though several incumbent operators continue to block these new Internet voice services in an effort to milk their circuit-switched voice cash cow as long as possible, mobile VoIP is an unstoppable train – because of consumer demand for less expensive mobile services, enterprise demand for fixed/mobile convergence, and the transformation of the network to an all-IP architecture."

"The report profiles some of these new players, including fringland Ltd., Jajah Inc., and Talkonaut," writes Unstrung's Dan Jones. "Blau also looks at some of the rare mobile phone operators, like Hutchison 3G UK Ltd., that are already taking a chance on VoIP, and how handset vendors, such as Nokia Corp., are quietly incorporating VoIP technology on their phones."
