iPhone VoIP Banned in Germany

There is some scary VoIP news out of Germany -- basically you cannot use VoIP on your iPhone because it could tempt you to jailbreak the device which basically means unlock it from the service provider you signed a contract with. None of this is good for the people of Germany who just lost the ability to use a very popular technology on a very popular device. This I would think puts the the people in the country at a disadvantage over their peers in outer countries who may use VoIP.

Here are the details.
