VOIP - Voice over IP; a technology allowing wired and unwired networks to offer telephony services by converting voice to data.

Advancements in VOIP has lowered the cost of long-distance calls while offering the same voice quality as traditional telcos. (Hence the refusal of local telcos to allow ISPs to offer VOIP services to the public. they claim that such a service would require them a national franchise based on an old philippine telecommunications law. in the meantime, the NTC dilly-dallies on the policies affecting VOIP technologies in the PH)

@GOwin, I second that. From what I hear, wi fi seems to be the way to go. Studies by international telecom analysts are more bullish on wi-fi development in phones rather than 3g .

nag back out na agad?di pa nag sisimula?nakita siguro ng foreign investors na walang buhay ang cdma dito sa pinas kaya nag back out.

tanong lang po

ano anong bansa ang naka cdma and ano ang population nila sa market compared to GSM?

if you are using a cdma fone and you want to change your unit, will it change numbers too? or you will retain your old number?

ano kaya itsura ng cdma fone? katulad ng mga fone na ginagamit ngayon ng extelcom?

im using extelcom line for calls..kc unlimited calls, pero base sa experience ko sa network nila, every time na may kausap ka sa line eh biglang may sisingit and mag sabi na pagamit naman ng line. may party line yata sila, and connection sucks... siguro nakaka 10 dials kana..di kapa nakaka contact sa tinatawagan mo....

mobiline used cdma before using kyocera fones.. pero di nag click... coz of the gsm fones... tingin kaya ng extelcom, kung i revive nila ang cdma after 10 years na wala sa business eh maka catch up sila sa GSM?

siguro po kung ginawa nila yan when smart started using GSM, kc sa pag kakakaalam ko doon talaga nag boom ang GSM sa pinas

If only 3G services are cheaper than GPRS, but I doubt.

3G deployment would be expensive. It's highly dubious if it can offer GPRS services at rates lower than it is now.

WLANs would offer cheaper data connections (vs mobile) albeit limited coverages.

Thailand. www.hutch.co.th if you want to see the handsets. It's pretty cheap. 2 Baht per minute.
