FON and BT Link Up-Imagine The Possibilities

Source: andyabramson.blogs.com

A few years ago BT got out of the circuit switched mobile business. Now with a relationship with maverick Hotspot network FON, the opportunity for BT to be in the HotMobile business is creeping back in.

What’s more FON defeats the need for international roaming costs if you can log your IP phone onto their network, use your new Windows Mobile 6.0 PDA or even a Nokia N or E series device.

This is a bold move for a telco and shows me once again that the USA based iLecs are living in past.
