Conclusion • Must be clear that VoIP is indeed cost-effective. • Protect its investment in circuit switched telecom operations since VoIP would be complementary to its existing technology • There must be significantly lower total cost of operation compared to today’s PSTN • Technology is not fully developed to the point where it can replace the services and quality provided by PSTN • Service Providers are awaiting the development of the remaining pieces of technology that will ensue quality transport in the last mile
