Who is dying? Not Vonage!

Source: voipcentral.org

Packet8, the third residential VoIP service provider in USA is offering its services to some 12,000 customers of an unknown company. I guess it would be similar arrangement as it did for the former SunRocket customers. Here the question comes, who is latest VoIP player closing down its operation?

At any case, it is not Vonage, although the residential player is down with patent controversies in recent months. The latest patent defeat is from Sprint Nextel. The court has ordered Vonage to pay $69.5 million fine for infringing Sprint VoIP patents.

Just two months ago, SunRocket closed down their operation despite claiming sizable residential customers. Read our coverage on SunRoket downfall.

Packet8 is the third residential VoIP player in USA behind Vonage and SunRocket with nearly 181,000 customers. The company has earlier reached out an agreement with SunRocket to provide VoIP services to the stranded SunRocketers.
