2/6/08 The weblog Engadget reports that Voce is "dead"
Voce calls itself a "premium" wireless company. The "Bentley"
of wireless service. Their phones are available
at select Neiman-Marcus stores in locations like South Beach, Hollywood,
New York.
Voce caters to the affluent Paris Hilton set. You will need to shell
out $500 to join Voce, and the monthly bill will be $200.
Voce service is all inclusive, there is no limits on usage such as
per minute fees, or text message fees. Voce service also includes
a concierge in additional to standard customer service. Just dial
the standard 611.
Voce offers the red carpet treatment for it's members. If you loose
your phone, another will be on it's way. If you just want to find
a good place to take your clients for your dinner, they can hook
you up with that too.
If you have the money to spend, and your time is that precious, Voce might
be the wireless company for you. For those of us, who are not on the
'A' list and prefer to shop at Wal-Mart instead of Neiman-Marcus, Voce
is probably not the best choice.
