Voice Over Powerlines?

from the hello-static... dept

Tiny LecStar Telecom, who was recently bought out by a struggling voice recognition company for no clear reason, has now decided to try offering a voice over powerlines service. Basically, they're offering VoIP on top of a powerline broadband service. Of course, given the history of problems broadband over powerlines has had, maybe they should make sure that the broadband part actually works before dumping a VoIP service on top of it as well.
