Exactly my point. They want you to pay for voice calls AS A SERVICE--not work around them and treat voice calls as data. Pathetic, isn't it?

I sincerely doubt that Microsoft, Nokia nor Skype is in any position to demand that carriers do anything. None of these holds any power over carriers. They've been languishing there in the corner at the kiddie table shouting at the carriers, "HEY! DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM??? YOU CAN'T TREAT ME THIS WAY!" while Apple, HTC, Samsung, Motorola, Google and everyone else are at the adult table where the real moving and shaking is going on.

I think it is very likely the adults will be watching for a new Ballmer chicken dance, willingly or not.

I don't know if Oracle got invitation, but it looks they are very interested in monetising their patent portfolio.

As for carriers they will join the party (ecosystem), or die.
