there's a thread in here already on this - i just can't find it..
I've had Vonage for about 7 months in New Hampshire.. and will be getting it in Chicago..
the downside to it - is it's only as good as your internet connection.. my connection used to get flakey sometimes and the phone would suffer - i'd get static, disconnects, etc etc...
But for 24.99 i could call anywhere in north america (not that i have anyone to call) and they expanded it to the uk and to asia as well...
If you get a voice mail 0 you get emailed with the voicemail and you can listen to the voicemail as a wave file... kinda cool actuall.
You don't have to get the area code for the area you live in - if you have family in another area code.. you can get a phone number for their area and for them to call you - it's a local call.. you can have multiple phone numbers onn one account..
I'd go for the trial version first and see how your internet connection holds up...
(also - snce it needs power to work - if you have power outages regularly -then it kinda sucks...
