I have written frequently about the merging of VoIP with consumer electronics and how service providers should be looking at the Apple model of selling service via slick devices. When we talk of convergence everyone thinks of something different from communications convergence to digital homes but it seems like all industries are really converging. Cameras are now cell phones are now video recorders are now DVD players are now video game devices.Perhaps the best sign of convergence is the fact that tomorrow, SBC Communications Inc Chairman and CEO Edward Whitacre Jr. will be keynoting CES and taking about the merging of communications and consumer electronics.This is one of the reasons that we chose to work with Pulver.com and have TMC's Internet Telephony Magazine help promote their Consumer VoIP Summit which is collocated with CES. You can read more about this summit on Jeff's Blog.
