01/07/2006 - Voice over Broadband (VoIP) Launched Allegro's VoIP service is now available to Allegro's SOHO broadband customers. Allegro's goal is to provide a high quality VoIP service that will deliver reliably and at rates lower than standard calls. VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a technology that delivers voice calls over the Internet rather than the traditional PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network).
