Re: Better than a disposable cell phone!

My first thought too.
quote:
Each Ooma box is part of Ooma’s network. The box in your home, for instance, might carry someone else’s phone call, though you can’t hear that call, and this doesn’t interfere with your own ability to make and receive calls whenever you want.
I'm sure nobody will hack that....

Yep. And...while you're using Ooma to place your call using someone else's landline, someone else is terminating their call with your landline.

This makes total sense.

Mextel and other international telecoms that charge high connection fees would be hurt by this if it went international. But with the inherit (apparent) insecurity I don't see how telecoms or gov'ts would allow this.
