Proud to Be “Essential!”
iSkoot’s unique mobile-to-Skype gateway got a another great plug earlier this month - this time in John Edwards’ piece “The Essential Guide to Wireless VoIP” on VoIP-News.
Check out John’s article here:
John confirms that the phenomenon of mobile VoIP is a disruptive technology that’s here to stay. As he explains: “VoIP technology has transformed the telephone industry over the last half-decade. Now, VoIP is promising to make a similar impact on mobile communications.”
We here at iSkoot suspected as much. 
John’s article takes a glance at some of the various incarnations of mobile VoIP devices we’ve seen in the wild thus far, noting:
“A company called iSkoot Inc. (hey, that’s us!) can link several types of mobile phones to the Skype Ltd. hosted-wireless service via an iSkoot network gateway.”
John does point out that there are some challenges facing mobile VoIP proliferation, particularly how to overcome the compromised Quality of Service that results from stuffing calls over the data channel:
“Since these systems were engineered to handle data traffic, not voice packets, many W[ireless]VoIP users complain about poor voice quality, garbled audio, noise and other service-robbing problems.”
Ain’t that the truth? That’s why iSkoot is pleased to offer wireless VoIP over the robust voice channel instead. The result: clear, carrier-grade call quality!
