In-Stat: 9 % of U.S. Households Use VoIP Phone Service

Cable operators and Vonage Holdings Corp. continue to drive VoIP adoption among residents in the United States, according to a new report from research firm In-Stat.

More than 10.6 million households now have at least one active VoIP user, up from approximately 9 million households at the end of the third quarter of 2006, the firm found.

The emergence of the cable operators as a dominant market force seems to have slowed the growth of the client-based VoIP market, with only Skype showing gains in this segment during the fourth quarter, analysts noted.
