There's been a couple instances...Uh, sorry, no. There's been a couple instances of fights between providers and VoIP companies, but even with tiered service you can still use other VoIP on all the same lines -- it just won't be the super-fast speeds that are coming. But if it works now, it'll work then. It's just that the provider's own VoIP service will be faster. But it's their pipes! No one's getting screwed here.CosmoReaxernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3163661793340851130.post-21828915297211373432006-05-11T02:25:04.000-05:002006-05-11T02:25:04.000-05:00NO. You are missing the point. The point is other ...NO. You are missing the point. The point is other VOIP/IM services are banned on the network. If you want VOIP/IM service, buy the one TMobile is offering or you have NONE. Tiered internet is a different issue altogether, where you have a choice of VOIP services, slow and faster and you can choose whatever you want.<br><br>When a user pay internet data plan subscription to Tmobile, user is paying for bandwidth. User should be allowed to use that bandwidth whatever way he/she likes it. Not the way T-Mobile likes it.Muralinoreply@blogger.com
