Amazing to think back to a decade ago when Motorola introduced its StarTac flip phone -- great design that has been repeated over and over again until this day.

You can't even imagine how big and bulky cell phones were up until that time -- like putting a brick to your ear!

And thank goodness that will great design is timeless battery power has been improved from those days of 60 minute talk time?

Thanks to MotorolaFAQ for the shot.

If you still haven't explored VoIP phone technology, then you're missing a trick. VoIP means making free phone calls over the web, so VoIP to VoIP calls are totally free. And it saves already a fortune to thousands of companies in the world.

Many people have heard of Ventrilo VoIP servers. They are most commonly known for aiding communication in multiplayer online games. However, the uses for this indispensable technology are countless.

Cell phone plans gave us access to a certain number of call minutes for a set price plus, usually, free nationwide long distance on evenings and weekends. Of course, they also had disadvantages such as sometimes spotty service areas, dropped calls and, all too often, bad reception. Now VOIP is bringing us yet another option for long distance service, promising greater convenience and freedom. We can even consider combining cell phones and VOIP technology. Can these promises be fulfilled?

It is not uncommon for people to look for low rate VoIP. In general, all forms of VoIP services are already cheaper than the usual telephone service.

How does VoIP work? Like many people, you may have already heard of VoIP. If you weren't born in this decade, you may still wonder what it really is.

You can learn a lot just by looking at VoIP ratings. The quality of provider's service is reflected in a rating. Ratings are typically given from one to five with a full five being the highest.

Just a few short years ago most of us could not have provided the name of one Voice over IP provider. Now, after much technological advancement and with the hard work of Internet developers, there are many IP-Telephony providers popping up all over the place. Voice over IP is the newest phone technology allowing users to call over the net, much in the same way that email is sent from one PC to another.
