Sell Me

By default, this must be good because the competition I suppose. But since I have what amounts to unlimited local and long distance with my MOBILE phone, why would I want to pay another $40mo. for this?

Can the whole household have unlimited calls from every phone in the house, is that how it works?

FWD BTW can use sip phones and such. There are new services that will allow PSTN to FWD VoIP.

Do you use the cell as your home phone?

$40 unlimited Vonage, all 50 states, and all Canada.
$26 wide regional calling area unlimited, 500 minuted LD

I use Vonage as an SBC replacement. It saved me around $70 a month, dropping my bill to about $26 monthly. The ATA186 uses your regular phone and routes you through you high speed internet connection (that I already have). The SBC local tolls were as bad as LD bills.

I use my Cell Phone for all Long Distance myself. Not a bad idea just need a multi phone plan for others in household.

It will be interesting to see new bundle "cliques" develop:

"VoIP via cable, cable broadband, DirecTV and Tivo all the way!"

"Regular phone, cable broadband, Digital TV and Time Warner PVR rules!"

"Cell Phone only, DSL Line w/Vonage, Dish Network and a good old-fashioned VCR is the best!"

"Net2Phone, with satellite broadband and no TV because it rots the mind!"

Re: Sell Me

I can see it now. I just pay one bill for my monthly expenses.

I pay my phone, electric, gas, TV, internet, car payment, mortgage, groceries, etc through one company.

Who's gonna do it?

Wal-mart.

Give it time.

HOw do you have a "Cell Phone only, DSL line w/Vonage" You can't have a cheap DSL Line without Pots. DSL with Vonage is not a cost savings.

Re: Sell Me

The RBOCs know this and they know it's another advantage for Cable. That's why they are continually dropping the price of DSL. However, where's that $24.95 price that people keep saying SBC is going to launch? WHY DOES SBC THINK THAT BLUFFING WITH TH PRICE OF A PRODUCT THEY DON'T HAVE(DSL, THEY DON"T HAVE DSL ANYWHERE) will make CABLE blink? It won't. THey only thing that will make cable react is a detailed RT deployment schedule with 100% coverage("Can I get DSL now?") in the cities they list

Re: Sell Me

Yeah, and I bet they have no more than 30% of the broadband market at best for the addresses serviced by your RT(which is probably half empty). Here there are tons of young technologically inclined demograhic(lots young Indians) in a dense apartment complex with no other broadband options. ALL SBC MANAGEMENT ARE IDIOTS!!!! ALL OF THEM!!!!!

It depends....Vonage technically gives you another phone line...so if you're wanting another line, it does offer some cost savings.
