Ooma, everyone’s favorite box that offers free phone calls and looks cool, isn’t failing, at least according to a tip by Pat Phelan of Cubic Telecom. Trying to get further info. The company, backed by Ashton Kutcher, looked like it was going under last week according to a post by Valleywag. I’ve tried the service and it works well enough. It basically offers seamless free VoIP for about $400 a pop.

“everyone’s favorite box that offers free phone calls”
It’s only everyone’s favorite because it’s the only one that does it, but being everyone’s favorite doesn’t make you successful (especially since you are defaulted as the favorite because you are the only one).
I really think Ooma is going to fail, not because it isn’t a good service, but because no one knows about them.
Just cause the service works “wel enough” today doesn’t mean that the company is not failing.
