A new report from Infonetics finds that hosted VoIP service providers are spending plenty on infrastructure. In 2006, the study found spending of $68.6 billion, and expects it to rise 12 percent, to $76.7 billion, by 2010. Despite a track record of mergers in the telco space, Infonetics expects carriers to continue dumping money into capital infrastructure expenditures. The payoff: the combined revenue of North American carriers rose 3 percent, to $403 billion, in 2006.
