On a sort of unrelated note, AT&T Mobility voice quality in this area of the country is atrocious. While the wireless company has done wonders with improving its data speeds, local AT&T customers here tell me the voice service is getting worse. Just wait till the VoIP traffic hits.

In today's podcast, we talk about AT&T allowing VoIP apps to run on its network, allowing services like Skype to work over 3G, and not just Wi-Fi--as well as some of today's top stories.

By Andy Abramson Om has the news about AT&T "deciding" to open up their 3G networks to apps like Skype and client Truphone. That said, having made calls over 3G in Europe, I wouldn't begin to jump up and down so fast. If you're standing still or walking it will work, but my last attempt (at 220 km/h) in Austri...

By Thomas Ricker You remember Vonage right? The trailblazing VoIP company is still around and appears at first glance to have instigated a bit of coup in the battle for VoIP calls over AT&T connections. Unfortunately they haven't, at least not yet. See, the free Vonage Mobile app just added to the iTune...

By Andy Abramson Yahoo has a lot of telephony technology, including Dialpad, which they bought a few years ago.

By Pete Wylie Mackintosh: Most of our traditional competitors have an offering they are pitching as a unified communications solution, but when you look at the services, it's really not a full UC product. AT&T, for instance, bought a conferencing company and basically renamed that division as u...

By Andy Abramson The cable industry is showing that it can really play the "takeaway" game when it comes to telephony in the home based on what I'm reading over at IP Democracy this morning. 1) AT&T still has the best quality platform in VoIP with CallVantage, but they're no longer really pushing it.

A wider rollout could allow AT&T to fill a potential void left by Vonage, the No. 1 independent Internet phone service, with 2.1 million U.S. customers. Vonage's survival is threatened by its recent loss of a patent-infringement lawsuit brought by Verizon.

Web Telephony claims infringement by Verizon, AT&T, Vonage and Earthlink in a suit that, if upheld, could have a significant impact on a growing market that affects a broad range of electronics used to supply everything from routers used in VoIP systems to computer hardware.

By Paul Kapustka It all kind of reminds me of the early days of cellular, when AT&T innovated (!) by introducing nationwide dialing plans with no roaming fees. It was such a no-brainer idea that every competitor had to follow. Maybe the new wave of minute-stealing businesses that VCs are pouring cash in...
