AT&T, one of the leading worldwide providers of IP-based communications services to businesses, Friday announced an unlimited talk and text plan for the company’s prepaid phone service. “We recognize GoPhone customers have a need for unlimited calling or texting without the commitment of an annual contract,” said Judy Cavalieri, vice president of Prepaid Products for AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets. “The new unlimited talk and text package enhances our prepaid options to give customers the flexibility of a national network with no contract requirement.” The unlimited talk and text plan also allows customers to talk and text friends and family not only in the United States, but also in Mexico, Canada and more than 100 countries worldwide, the company said, adding that, with this new package option, customers can also send unlimited IM, picture and video messages.

Vonage Holdings Corp shares surged 35% on Wednesday on growing views that the company would survive despite earlier skepticism over its business model. The stock has now climbed more than 300% in the past week, a rally that has surprised analysts who say the company still faces stiff competition and weak revenue. Last week, the stock was trading at less than 50 cents a share, and yesterday it closed above US$2.00/shr. on news of Google Inc’s new voice application may be renewing interest in VoIP, a technology that Vonage pioneered. Vonage was among the first to offer Internet-based calling services to people looking for cheaper alternatives to regular phone lines. Since its inception, the company has struggled with high costs and competition from traditional phone and cable operators that now offer bundled video, Internet and phone services. It is also challenged by SKYPE, a unit of eBay Inc, and other Internet-based services. While it posted its 1st quarterly net profit earlier this month, a weaker economy resulted in fewer subscribers. Vonage, perhaps, is in the sights of a larger company.

Shares of OpenTable Inc (OPEN.O) closed their first trading session up 59 % last Thursday following the restaurant reservation company’s initial public offering, in the best first day performance for a US company in over 18 months. The stock ended up US$11.89 at US$31.85 on NAS, a day after the company raised a more-than-expected $60 million in its IPO.

The stock started trading at a 22.5% premium over the US$20 IPO price, which was above the expected range, reaching an intraday high of US$35.50. “It’s such a small deal and people are interested in the brand name, plus it’s the first real VC (venture capital)-backed IPO by a Silicon Valley firm in a while,” said Nick Einhorn, an analyst with Connecticut-based Renaissance Capital.

OpenTable sold a modest 3 million shares, something Einhorn said will make the stock more volatile and could explain its strong debut. The stock’s run-up had many analysts scratching their heads and saying it may be ridiculously overvalued, with a high risk of a big pullback
