Internet-based calling is set to soar in 2006. As carriers aim to reduce the cost of sending phone calls and subscribers aim for lower phone bills, the number of people subscribing to Voice over Internet Protocol, or VoIP, services will almost double this year, to 47.3 million, according to consultancy Infonetics.
The number of residential and small business users in North America is expected to surge ninefold to 39 million by 2009. Europe's total will jump almost eightfold to 42.5 million, while the tally in Asia will leap to 49.9 million.
