2005: The Year the Cable Companies Made VoIP Happen...

One of my take aways from Spring 2005 VON was that by the end of 2005, in the US marketplace, the cable companies will collectively represent the larget segment of paid VoIP subscribers base.

Some of the highlights shared @ Spring 2005 VON:

- Cablevision is adding 12,000 customers per week (CPW) Jan and Feb; will be adding Local Number Portability (LNP) in March, and they address only 3M existing Verizon customers

- Time Warner adding 12k CPW currently & expanding.

- Comcast going from 3 to 20 markets in 2005 to address 15M subs (no current CPW reported)

- Cox expects to complete VoIP rollout to pass entire 7M subs in 2005 (no current CPW reported)

- Charter Communications and Adelphia will cover their territories by end of 2006 (7+M subs)
