| Sunrocket Has Gone Out of Business | |
| July 17, 2007 Following a few weeks of rough financial times, it appears that Sunrocket could not hold on. Yesterday they apparently fired all remaining employees and shut their doors. Unfortunately, Sunrocket did all this without notifying any of it's 200,000 customers. It's too early to tell what will come of this, and whether or not some other VoIP company will swoop in and take over Sunrocket's once thriving internet phone service business. In the meantime, Sunrocket VoIP customers are left hanging with poor service or no dial tone at all. Many have already subscribed with other internet phone companies, and those who have not are looking for a good alternative. Although you never can tell if a company will survive or not, we recommend switching over to Voip.com. This company carries the same low $199 a year price for unlimited service, and is well known for their in-house development team and support staff. Currently, Voip.com is offering a $30 rebate to new subscribers of their annual plan. To claim your rebate, use promotion coupon code LUCKY when you subscribe. If you don't like what Voip.com offers, you should be ok subscribing with any of the VoIP companies we review on this website. We are in the process of removing all reviews and information about Sunrocket at this time.

Vonage to Introduce V-Phone - VoIP on a Keychain |
|
| According to a statement by
Vonage chairman Jeffrey Citron
on June 26, this well known VoIP provider will be introducing a new
device called the Vonage V-Phone any day now. The V-Phone is a
tiny USB stick on a keychain, that includes Vonage internet phone
service software. It is designed to allow subscribers to make
VoIP calls from any computer connected to the internet via broadband.
The concept is simple "plug and play" internet phone service. This innovative device will provide a handy "portable VoIP" solution to subscribers who travel, allowing them to call home from a laptop, friend's computer, or internet cafe'. The computer used to make the VoIP call will have to have a sound card, speakers, and microphone though, as the incoming and outgoing voice signals have to have these things in order to work. Users will probably have to remember to bring their own headset (with mic) or a cordless internet telephone of some sort. |

Packet8 Soon to Offer Softphone Service |
|
Packet8 (8X8) announced an
upcoming new software-based VoIP service, called Softalk. This
PC to Phone service is due to rollout soon, as two new service plans
are described on the
Packet8 website.
This innovative new service looks like another great enhancement from
Packet8 (they are probably the best VoIP provider when it comes to
constant improvement and adding new features). Not only will
it provide subscribers with new capability of making VoIP calls from
anywhere via their computer, but it has built in Videophone
functionality as well!
Below is a picture of what the Packet8 Softalk software interface looks like: |
