I remember a few months ago that Earthlink started advertising Vonage. Now there is Earthlink Unimited Voice. I believe this is Vonage because it has the exact same rates and the same graphics but nowhere does it say Vonage.
Anyone know any details on this?

cant say for sure wouldnt bet my life on it but it's most likely Vonage. they probably have a special reseller deal setup. alot like the refer a friend and affliate program that voange offers to it's customers. earthlink prob just makes a certin amount for every account they sign up. pretty nice. i see a future of many inet providers doing the same thing or at least offering their own in areas that they provide internet. bout time phone companies get some competition |

This is service is in fact Vonage, for all intensive purposes. Part of Vonage's business plan is to resell Voip thru marketing agreements. Earthlink, in this case, makes all of their high speed subs aware of Vonage with advertising. When Earthlink people call the special toll free number, it is answered "Earthlink Digital Voice", but the people answering the phones are all Vonage. The press release is on Vonage's corp website and can be viewed here:

thanks for confirmation of my thoughts ...
and heres just another proof of that from an article you can find ... here > http://www.vonage-forum.com/article97.html&mode=&order=0&thold=0
"Earthlink Inc. (ELNK), an Internet service provider, Holder said. Though the voice service carries the Earthink brand, Vonage oversees the entire telephony operation on behalf of Earthlink. " |
