AT&T and Other Telcos Thinking of Skype Combatant?

Om writes about a report that AT&T and a group of major international telcos like British Telecom, Deutsche Telecom, and NTT are thinking of making a free VOIP system. The reason for it is that voice is a "losing proposition" these days in the face of Skypes and land line attrition. The system would eventually be moved to cellphones and would be launched in 2009. One problem: The report is so far mostly theory, even if the writer does have a good track record. [Om]
