A few open questions on the recent Jajah/Yahoo deal, perhaps our readers can answer:
Whatever happened to the Dialpad acquisition by Yahoo? Was that investment a waste then? Yahoo had acquired the company because apparently they needed an insight into the call routing science.
Jajah does not do PC-to-Phone application. Is Jajah going to develop that capability for Yahoo Messenger, or is it going to be a similar application to Jajah i.e. web initiated telephony that does not necessarily use the public Internet? Jajah voice quality is great right now because the company does not use public Internet.
Why have the PC-to-Phone partnerships not worked for Yahoo in the
past? They had relationships with companies like Net2phone prior to Dialpad acquisition.
Should we expect Yahoo to offer mobile VoIP and what will be Jajah’s role there? Jajah developed a private labelled mobile VoIP application for an MVNO sometime back.
