Rohan Mahy, co-chair IETF SIP and SIPPING Working Groups, took issue with some of the things that Niklas Zennstrom of Skype and Kazaa fame said at the conference, and although enterprise VoIP isn’t a central technology to Faultline, it is a valid and radical cost pressure on telcos and an opportunity for various vendors.

Klaus Schulz makes history by making the first ever VoIP call

Xten® Networks, Inc. (OTCBB: XNWK) yesterday announced that VoIP history was made when Klaus Schulz, a former 3COM® Chief Technology Architect, boarded Flight 452 from Munich to Los Angeles on May 17th. Mr. Schulz did not know that he was going to make history on that day, however, he knew that he was going to be able to use the Internet on Lufthansa®’s first commercial “production” flight with the very much touted new service from Connexion by Boeing®, this, because he helped with the overall implementation of the system.

It was my Dad’s birthday today so I thought it would be a good day to launch free calling on myPhoneBooth.com.

Free 1 Minute Calls To:
United States, Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore
Taiwan, Australia, Germany, Italy, France, United Kingdom

I called my Dad in Cranbrook, BC from Santa Clara and wished him a Happy Birthday. I then called my brother in Australia and give him crap for not calling my Dad yet and then he called him using myPhoneBooth.com as well.

Pretty cool! Now that they have Wifi on comercial flights I can see that myPhoneBooth.com might get some real traction. Soon it will have Acoustic Echo Cancellation so you don’t even have to use a headset!

There is also Free Unlimited Calls To US 1-800 Numbers

and

Free Unlimited VoIP Calls on These Networks:
Call any SIPphone Account (1-747-XXX-XXXX)
