Re: No I wouldn't buy it.
I put VoIP systems in at a enterprise level. 911 isn't a problem for the business because they have the flexability to put CO Trucks in for a route pattern for 911 calls. The voice systems sends the 911 to a trunk which is ID'd at the emergency call center for its location. The hardest part of the VoIP for home users will be the 911 feature. The only way I think they can do it is if they have static ip's for all the phones and link the ip to each person's phone. So if someone dials 911, a data base pulls up the ip address then looks to see who has it then routes the call to the emergency call center. Otherwise you'll have the police and fire show up at your local CO.
