Re: I would be willing to Donate $ said by ANWDREW0: If Vonage sent me a Company Email for Donations I would pledge to keep them alive. I like my vonage, they came in giving the customer a choice and stuck to there guns on price very reasonable. I will always support a company this this type of integrity. We were hostage to VZ at double this cost per month and had no free long distance given for free. Thank you Vonage! Integrity??? You have got the be kidding! This company's IPO was $17 a share and has never seen $3 let alone $10 since. It is run by Jeffrey Citron who paid $22.5 million to get out of trouble with the SEC.
This company also has no problems getting loads of BBB complaints and even sending Vonage to people with dialup or no Internet. It even takes longer to cancel Vonage that it does AOL. It has never made a profit.
Vonage has to be the crookedest IPO to come along since the Internet bust revealed a bunch of the most lame-brained ones.
By the way, Vonage only has $150 million in cash and that's good for one more roung of infomercials and one more quarter of dodging cancellations. 2008 will probably see its bankruptcy filing.
The Vonage is about over!

| I stand behind what I say. They have been good to me. I am a tech and don't really need a call center if systems are up and running. Which have been 100%. It's down when Comcast drops that's not Vonage. So yes I stand behind them. |

I do believe this will pay big if they are sold. IOP bought and sold hit hi before they fizzle out. I am think
they will live through this. if every subscriber gave only $1 US they would continue to give a competitive choice. Its a smart move for every vonage customer to help Vonage return the favor, by providing a choice. when there is no
competition there is no reason to give the people better service for a decent price. |

I have been buying and selling their stock for the last 8 months...not once have I lost money....As a mater of fact, I have made quite a bit ...I buy it and hold it for a day or two max.....
You must be one of the suckers that bought it at $17.00 eh? |

Jeffrey Citron is Angel in comparison too the google
story above. Nice job At$-)
I remember caller ID $7-8 per month and rent equipment
plus tax on wars past wow. throw some more charges on too the pile. Competition changed all that. US government had to brake them up and needs to do It again. Look at Mexico Tel-com richest man in the world. and a monopoly

| Jeffrey Citron may or may not be squeaky clean. But definitely a good fix in a predicament as Vonage landed
up-in. Hey never did I see guilty-- smart rich man lol.
Some people need to be a little bit more dimensional
and think out side the box. |

The point is, the value of the company has gone down considerably since the IPO. Day trading and making money is one thing (and good for you if you're doing well). But the comment above is the long term prospects which probably isn't so hot.
Anyway, Vonage had a good idea and when their gone others will fill in the gap. Besides the obvious patent research lesson, the one to learn is of customer service. If I've remembered anything about DSLR user ramblings on any Vonage news post it's that of poor customer service. Most people leapfrog other providers because of just that. And I know first hand with my providers what it feels like to go from one sucky system to another.

Let's not call this "making" money. This is wealth transfer. It's being transferred from someone stupid enough to buy a crap stock to someone else gambling with their money.
This will really date me but when I was in high school one of my classes played a hypothetical stock market game. They gave us each $500 and we were allowed to buy and sell each day based on stock market reports. I started out with a (then) quality blue chip stock -- General Motors. It was expensive (~$30/share) and it didn't vary much from day to day. I ended up losing money. Then I recognized that I needed more shares if I was to make quick money. So I bought Braniff and Pan Am (both barely had their head above water...) for ~$1 each. The price of their stock would fluctuate an 1/8th on almost a daily basis. I bought a bunch, held it until it would go up and sell it. When either went back down, I would buy it again. I ended up winning but the teacher didn't much care for my strategy. She didn't exactly say I was a crook but she frowned on my tactics. |

If she really didn't like that she probably didn't like the idea of anybody shorting stock either, lol.
I play the game with penny stocks too, but most of the companies I buy into are good long term companies anyway. Vonage isn't one of those that I consider a "safe" long term buy, at least by my standards so I leave it alone.
