610508 2007-11-12 03:52:00 Sounds similar to what Woosh have been offering for yonks now, except you must use your Woosh connection instead of ADSL... Chilling_Silence (9)

You can't use ADSL on the vodafone system either - it (like woosh) is a box you plug your phones into & it uses their wireless network instead of the phone lines.

610511 2007-11-14 07:36:00 But there's one BIG difference....

All national local calls are free (no toll charge)... I reckon it'll be very appealing to users, who call friends and mates and contacts regularly across the country.

610512 2007-11-14 18:19:00 Called "Vodafone at home", the service offers unlimited free national calling to any LOCAL number and means consumers no longer need to have a Telecom landline to make and receive free LOCAL calls.

btw They originally called this the blackbox back when I read about it start of this year, looks white to me :p

610513 2007-11-14 19:13:00 This will suit some people (older people who do not use the net at all).

But there will be a year or two pay back time to pay for the white box unless they make lots of toll calls.

But why don't Vodaphone give Telecom some real competition and drop their mobile phone calling rates. They have said they want us in the top half of the OECD rankings by 2010 ! so why not start now !
