Post Ars Technica // Vonage to offer phone on a stick

Vonage plans to begin selling USB drives with phone software preinstalled, potentially making any desktop or laptop a Vonage softphone. What's the point?

I can immediately see a massive drawback on this for Vonage-- the key will be passed around.

I could see, for example, three or four neighbours in an apartment block all chipping in to share 1 Vonage account, just passing around the key when one needs to make a call, instead of each getting an account.
