Migration to IP Telephony
•Circuit switched telephony is $2T+ business protected by last mile access as long as possible by the incumbent carriers. IP Telephony must handle Plain Old Telephony seamlessly.
•IP handset prices must drop to <US$50 or be distributed “free” as part of the service.
•Low cost Wireless LANs & 3G IP Mobiles
•Always-on Broadband IP
•Billing based on service level and data volume as opposed to per call, per second or call distance
