VoIP Blogging > Technology :: Voip a Brief History
[ArticleBiz.com | Technology Articles] The Vocaltec software was able to run on a home PC and utilized much of the same hardware products that Voip services use today in terms of soundcards, speakers and headsets.

[BBC Blogs | Technology] BBC - Technology: Is Skype on the iPhone a big deal?: Apple's restrictions on the use of its software development kit mean that Voip applications cannot use the 3G network. The other issue is that the iPhone doesn't allow you to have more than one application open at the same time - so your Skype buddies probably won't be able to get you on the phone unless you happen to be in the app when they call.

[Michigan Telephone, VoIP and Broadband blog] The true beginning of wideband telephony adoption?: Recently there have been efforts made to promote wideband telephony, but the big problem is that in VoIP, we are still at the stage where the people doing most of the work are generally underpaid, and the economy in general is in the tank, and for that reason most people aren’t going to shell out real money to pay for codecs. If you doubt this, look at the low adoption rate for G729 - Digium licenses it on a per-channel basis and a lot of users say “why bother?” and just use the free codecs (and many who do use G729 do so only because they found a site in a former Soviet-bloc country where the copyright on G729 apparently either doesn’t apply, or isn’t enforced…

[The Jeff Pulver Blog] The Jeff Pulver Blog: Quick Take on the CALEA Oral Argument in the ...: It seemed pretty clear (although, according to Judge Edwards, he is skeptical of any attorney who prefaces argument by stating that something is clear) that Judges Edwards and Sentelle were quite skeptical about the FCCs extension of the CALEA statute to services that the FCC has defined as Information Services. Lets recall that the same day the FCC adopted the CALEA for VoIP Order (August 5, 2005), the FCC also adopted the Wireline Broadband Internet Access Order, which defined broadband Internet access services as Information Services, not Telecom Services. Both Judges Sentelle and Edwards took the FCC to task for the obvious disingenuity and illogic of saying that broadband Internet access services are Information Services for the purposes of the Telecom Act but Telecom Services for the purposes of CALEA. Judge Edwards pointed out that the FCC made an immutable technological determination that must apply across FCC Orders that the Information Services component of a broadband Internet access service cannot be disaggregated from the telecom transmission component and therefore the whole communication.
