AT&T Unity brings voice minutes closer to free

January 19, 2007
The NY Times is reporting that AT&T customers who subscribe to both its Cingular Wireless and traditional phone services can now make and receive unlimited free calls to and from any other AT&T or Cingular customer. The new AT&T Unity service is yet another competitive advantage AT&T and the other phone companies will have over single-play VoIP providers, including Vonage, and even Skype. Of course, the race to "free" can't be good for the telecom sector.

According to the story, expanded ''free calling'' network will consist of 100 million phone numbers. That's a pretty large "free in-network" calling. It just might be time for me to switch to AT&T / Cingular / AT&T Wireless / BellSouth , etc. etc.

Anybody see the Colbert explanation of the whole confusing AT&T acquisitions on Youtube? Check it out. It's hilarious!
