(Please lord!) I honestly can't see it happening in the UK market. I know all the operators are desperate to find new revenue streams, but this would be so stupid... imagine if BT or Virgin wanted to do the same with fixed line voice and/or data!

Agreed.

And honestly I can't ever see it happening here.

It's a thoroughly desperate measure isn't it? Declining voice revenues...
I can just imagine some prat-at-the-back standing up at the revenue ideas
meeting and suggesting this... deary me.

Very BAD.

The only GOOD thing that MIGHT fall out of this is that I might finally get to use some awesome new services:

ie: Skydeck.
