I'm thinking about subscribing to one of the many VOIP services (Vonage, Callvantage, etc.) and have a few questions.
Are any of these good enough to replace a POTS line? I'll be using it over Verizon's new Fios service.
Where can I find a comparison of all the available services? I did a quick google search and found nothing.
Do any of the services offer a discounted rate for a second or third line?
Lingo seems to offer the most for the least amount of money. Are they worth considering?
[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: For myself, I go with Vonage, mainly because of my advertising relationship with them. I do not know if that makes them 'better' or not, just 'cheaper' for me. I still have some Vonage e-coupons good for one month of free service. If anyone wants to test out Vonage, email me and ask for an e-coupon. The deal is, you click on the link in the email I send you; it then walks you through the sign up process of getting a number assigned, shipping out the telephone adapter (quite easy to install), etc. You use a credit card of your choice to pay for the adapter and a month of service. _Then_ the e-coupon kicks in, and whatever service you bought, you get a second month of the same for free.
