Just curious if anyone here has tried Vonage broadband phone service, I'm
considering moving to it, but I want to hear from anyone who may be using it
and since this is the pulse of geekdome, I figured somebody else out there
may have tried them out or is going to and I could get some off-list
responses and feedback, thanks.
I heard a demo on NPR's Marketplace a few weeks back and the quality is
good. There's a noticeable difference between a "real" phone circuit and
a vonage connection, but it's negligible, and there wasn't any latency
that I could detect.
Dropouts still seem to be a problem, but for what it is, I think it's
worth it for at least home service.
