T-Mobile Offers New Home Phone Service

By Laura M. Holson

How is this for a twist: Wireless carrier T-Mobile wants to sell consumers phone service in their homes.

The company announced Wednesday that it would introduce a Internet-based phone service called T-Mobile@Home later this month which it hopes will compete with landline and voice-over-Internet offerings from the likes of AT&T, Verizon and Vonage.

One of my readers recently told me to check out Jangl.com because it was similar to one of the other services I had posted about like Jaxtr.com or Voipwise.com. I read up on the site what the service was all about, but no where on the site could I find what countries it serves.

Tristan Degenhardt tells us in an opinion how VoIP can be integrated into Small Businesses. She doesn’t appear to fully recommend the service(s) into your small business, but to work with it taking advantage of it’s strengths while understanding it’s limitations.

Not a bad read here.
