FCC Solves VoIP E911 Problem With Sticker

The FCC issued rules on June 3rd that require VoIP telephones have a warning sticker attached. The FCC definition of a VoIPadapter includes Internet-connected PCs, laptops and handheld devices with "soft phones," which are software-based VoIP phones. Thus, your wireless Bluetooth headset may have to have an orange warning label hanging from it. Future wireless services such as Wimax will also have to solve the E911 problem.

Expect "fees" to increase.
