In 2002, I went to vonage. I had pretty bad water leak in copper wire service at the time and it took many service calls to have fixed (it be still raining when repairman arrived) . The day after they fixed it I cancelled verizon service<g>. I subsequently added a cablevision phone line 4 years ago, no big whoop.
I just switched of from cablevision and vonage this fall to tmobile at home $10 a month per line. only thing lost from vonage service is voicemail attachments arrived as email. I assume tmobile wll add that feature on later since there using. You have to have tmobile cell phone accoutn to get service.
I got a dentist who swears about magic jack. I told him only basic difference between other voip solutions is he using PC resources rather then termnial adapter device and electricity cost for PC on 24/7 was a measuable cost he needed to factor in.
What do you think about Intel report. I am seeing 19" LCD monitors $119 since they rolling off assembly lines faster then their being sold.
