IP Democracy: Vonage's Citron Speaks...But Not Really


voip.jpgBrian Ward at The Deal’s TechEffect blog has ongoing coverage of The Deal’s star-studded Convergence 2.0 conference. One of the more intriguing speakers at the event today was Vonage’s Chairman and Chief Strategist Jeffrey Citron, the first such public appearance for a high-level Vonage executive since the company’s disastrous IPO.

Citron, however, offered little in the way of dishy inside reactions to the PR nightmare that has befallen the newly public VoIP upstart. As Ward points out, Citron was the only honcho to take no questions from the audience.

Instead, he spent most of his time promoting a new widget, the V-Phone. The V-Phone is a USB device embedded with Vonage software that allows users to make calls from any broadband-connected PC using a keychain drive.
