Public Phones are Making a Comeback

April 12, 2010

Public Phones are making a comeback in the form of a public service information kiosk. I do believe I’ve seen this in movies ;-)

Orange France announced a pilot of new payphones featuring 17-inch touch screens and VoIP service in various parts of Paris. The booths can also be used to browse the internet and check e-mail. They have been rolled mainly in  tourist and shopping areas.

I love reading items like this, where products and services that seem obsolete, gain new life with the help of VoIP and broadband technology.
