Vonage Wi-Fi Phone Here Shortly
in Gadgets
CNET News is reporting that Vonage is set to announce the availability of a portable Wi-Fi phone. “The company will sell a handset called the F1000 manufactured by UTStarcom, which will offer Vonage’s voice over IP (VoIP) service over any public 802.11b network.”
CNET mentions that there are two aspects that may be detractors for the initial release. The phone works only with public Wi-Fi hot spots, and “the mobile nature of the device makes it nearly impossible for emergency operators to automatically get the address of callers using a Wi-Fi VoIP phone away from home.” These issues will eventually be resolved according to a Vonage VP.
