Re: Huh?

It's basically *fiberized POTS*, but over fiber, not copper. And considering that typical VZ Freedom plans (which *includes* AYCE national long-distance, the most popular services such as call-waiting/forwarding/etc., and even inside line maintenance with most plans; try getting that from a VoIP provider!) are either bundled with, or upsold with, FIOS (single or dual-service; VZ Freedom is also heavily sold to copper customers) and costs little more than VoIP from the more reliable providers (including Packet8 and ViaTalk), unless you're a VZ hater, there's little incentive to leave VZ's POTS offerings.

VZ Freedom is the Diskeeper of POTS; basically flat-rate national unmetered phone service that even AT&T never offered when the Bell System was all a single piece! I don't know about you, but given worry-free unmetered POTS with no long-distance phone bill (the family makes no international calls; hence no long-distance bill whatever with Freedom), E911 (available from few VoIP providers), and almost all the services offered by VoIP providers, for little more than VoIP, why switch?
