If you are one of th people who bought an Ojo videophone from Telecom New Zealand (announced down here back in November 2006) then start worrying.It seems Worldgate is in the path to bankruptcy:
Accordingly, on January 30, 2008, the Company shut down its operations as a first step to winding down its business, which will occur if the Company is not able to secure payment of the monies believed to be owed and/or new financing. The Company continues to explore potential financing opportunities and is also pursuing legal recourse against the customer. Thus, bankruptcy may be coming shortly, which would be another black eye for the VoIP industry...
And just minutes ago I read on Engadget that the service has gone dark.
Is anyone here in New Zealand still using the Ojo through Telecom New Zealand?
