Vonage leads US VOIP Market 3rd Q 2006

According to another report by Telegeography, US VOIP subscriptions have gained 18% to 8.2 Million users in the third quarter of 2006. But it also reports that the rate of growth has slowed down from the previous years.
VoIP revenues for the second quarter were up about two and a half times - $732 million across the United States, compared with a year-ago level of $298 million.
TeleGeography predicted the market would grow by roughly 1.5 million subscribers in the fourth quarter to end the year with 9.7 million, or about 8.7 percent of the nation's households. Revenues are expected to approach $2.6 billion for the year, or more than 2.5 times the 2005 total of just over $1 billion.

Current Standings on VOIP Market;

Vonage Holdings Corp. 1.95 million subscribers.
Time Warner Inc.'s cable TV 1.64 million.
Comcast Corp. 1.35 million.
Cablevision Systems Corp. 1.10 million.

Certainly good news for VOIP suppliers, be it phones, services or minutes. VOIP is gaining the space, slowly but surely.
