I'm even thinking of getting the phone service sometime this year.
I understand using Comcast for broadband because you have no other choice of providers but why would you use them for phone service where there is a huge choice of providers?
That's simple. I use Comcast for internet and TV cause I basically don't have a choice. SAT TV is a no go here because of trees around. Internet because my only other choice is AT&T and back when they were BellSouth, I had a very bad experience with them on Voice service and had my service disconnected.

I switched to AT&T CallVantage VoIP and have been there for almost 4 years this year. I don't plan on switching anytime soon, but if AT&T takes a dive on me, given that my house is not wired for phone, I have 2 choices for phone:

Vonage
Comcast Digital Voice.

These would be the easiest choice in both money and equipment hassle.

I don't view cell phones as a really viable alternative because we have Cingular here and they've been unreliable since Katrina hit.

Huge choice of providers? Nope, not for me.
