Daniel Berininger has a comparison piece over on Om Malik’s blog on the similarities of Vonage and MCI. Its an interesting piece, with interesting comments as well.
Though I would love to cheer for the underdog, I still think Vonage will not end up being a powerful competitor in the voice market. There are simply too many other options for voice solutions which I’ve talked about before.
Most people will end up using mobile phones only, others will switch to their cable company offerings, many more will simply stick with whatever former RBOC they already have, and finally others will simply use some type of free voice offering from the likes of Skype, Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and others.
Sorry folks, VOIP is where its at for landlines, its just that Vonage isn’t the heir appearent.

Ah, another great phone is on its way to market – the i-mate Smartflip. The Wireless Report discusses what will be HTC’s first clamshell phone, and its a Smartphone based on Windows Mobile (naturally), and will inherit all the benefits of the Smartphone platform.
With EDGE support, a QVGA main screen, and a color external display – its shaping up to be quite a phone.

Well then check out this review posted over at Mobile Burn. Michael Oryl is up to his usual standards in this great write-up of the Motorola Q Smartphone.
Running on the Verizon Wireless EVDO network, the Windows Mobile based Smartphone follows the RAZR style in thin mobile phone design. Instead of a standard phone, the Q boasts a landscape QVGA screen in addition to the QWERTY keyboard. Yeah, your thinking it takes on traditional BlackBerry devices (and it does), but it is also a great phone as well.
Check out Michael’s review, he has some great pictures of the new phone as well.
