E-911 rule may rein in new VoIP services
Paul Davidson writes in USA Today:
Most Internet-based phone services do not expect to meet a government mandate to provide all their subscribers full-featured 911 service by Nov. 28.
As a result, they likely will have to stop signing up customers in much of the country during the holidays. A group of Internet-based providers has asked a federal court to suspend the deadline.
"The (Federal Communications Commission) effectively has told us to stop building our business for the holidays," says Chris Murray of Vonage, the No. 1 Net-based service with 1 million customers.
