AT&T Announces VoIP Program

An anonymous reader writes "DeviceForge reports that AT&T has unveiled a program to foster the 'development, delivery, and adoption' of emerging voice over IP (VoIP) applications, capabilities, and devices. The program, based on proprietary AT&T specifications, is intended to enable 'select vendors' to test applications and equipment against AT&T specs and thereby ensure compatibility with AT&T's evolving VoIP communication services. AT&T has invited industry leaders representing application developers, equipment, device manufacturers, and silicon vendors to participate in the program in order to 'shape and scale' the emerging VoIP market."

  1. The United Goats Mourn the Death of a Marine by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Lance Corporal Dominic Christopher Brown, age 19, was splattered to death during patrol in the name of the Bush family's oil war on Iraq. He graduated from high school one year ago and immediately joined the Marine Corps. He's now dead. All of that learning down the drain in order to tote around guns and fire them at Iraqis, keeping gasoline cheap for you. We mourn his death and the resulting loss to the nation.

    About The United States

    The United States is located primarily on the North American continent between Canada and Mexico. Ruled by extremist Christians, the country has adopted numerous laws that invade the private lives of its citizens. These laws have lead to problems such as sexual dysfunctionality and racially-motivated selective enforcement. The United States has the greatest number of incarcerations per capita of all Western nations. Despite the current administration's mantra against the dangers of WMDs, the United States is the only country to have ever dropped nuclear weaponry on an enemy. The United States gave Saddam Hussein chemical weapons and has funded Osama Bin Laden. Saddam Hussein has used chemical weapons against extremist Shi'ite muslims in Northern Iraq known as Ansar al-Islam. These extremists have an ideology similar to that of the corrupt Taliban of Afghanistan. The United States frequently uses chemicals such as tear gas against protestors who oppose the policies of its government and corporate leaders. The United States supports Israel, a government with extreme Jewish religious fundamentalist regulations. For example, it is illegal to flip a light switch on or off during one day of every week known as the Sabbath. The United States also supports Saudi Arabia, an evil kingdom founded on brutal fundamentalist Muslim law known as Sharia. Its leaders do not allow non-Muslims to enter the country, and the empire is a known breeding ground for terrorism. The United States is perpetually ensnared in a tangle between the three axes of evil: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

    Dear Thomas Edison,

    All your incandescent bulbs are being replaced with Flourescent, neon, and LED lamps. Also, the days of your motion picture projector are limited with the dawning of totally digital motion pictures.
    Please give our regards Mr. Tesla.

    Yours Truly,

    The Future.
