Did you know you can use VoIP for things other than simply making and receiving calls? For sure you can use VoIP to make cheap or even free calls but you can also use it to run videoconferencing to your desktop, checking voicemail, web surfing and much more. With VoIP you can read your voicemail on your computer and listen to your email through an IP-enabled telephone. The terminology used for this feature is “VEmail”. An IP-enabled telephone uses a built-in network interface card (NIC), exactly like a computer uses. The NIC is essential for any network device because it provides the device with a physical address and a way to communicate over the network. With VoIP you can also surf the internet - how? With an IP-enabled telephone you can display web pages or even a list of all your favourite links. For instance you could use your phone to view your favorite news channel or forum. The other advantages to VoIP is you can use it anywhere, on your desktop, mobile or PDA and it doesn’t need any wires.
