ISP Glossary:
Media Access Control Address - Actually, I *have* seen call transfer like Vonage, from the VoIPcompany that did it first: VoicePulse (http://www.voicepulse.com/).In the last three or four months, VoicePulse has introduced severalnew and innovative features, and call transfer just happens to be oneof them. Once VoicePulse had introduced the feature, Vonage customersapparently started requesting it, and when Vonage implemented it theyeven used the same code (90#) to initiate the transfer. I'm notsaying VoicePulse was the first to ever do something like this, butVonage *definitely* wasn't the first.I've been watching the VoIP scene develop for the past few months andone thing I've noticed is that among the "big three" VoIP providers(VoicePulse, Packet8, and Vonage), VoicePulse looks to be the clearleader in features now, and is even a bit less expensive thanVonage. I think the only reason they aren't the larger company isbecause they have numbers for incoming calls in relatively few areacodes. But that said, just a few days ago they announced that theyare offering numbers in the 212 area code in New York City. Somehow,I have a feeling those are going to get snapped up rather quickly!
