No complaints w/ voice quality at all. My landlord is equally enthusiastic about Vonage. I pay $18.08/month total, taxes included - about a third the cost of a traditional landline.<br><div> </div>Terry McIntyre <terrymcintyre@yahoo.com><br>They mean to govern well; but they mean to govern.

I still have Vonage and am reasonably happy <br>with it. Sure - I get some garbled transmissions at times, but for <br>$15 per month, it sure beats my previous land line provider - which <br>was over $50. My primary communication is with a cell phone, but <br>having the Vonage line keeps my land line phone number, which I have <br>had for over 30 years. It is my official contact point for soooo <br>many things. That way, I don't get junk calls on my home phone. <br>Vonage has great voice mail, which I can pick up over here in Japan <br>with no problem. Any they have good online call records, billing, <br>etc. I think it is a
terrific value. I don't know how long they will <br>keep their price down with lawsuits, taxes and every other wolf <br>trying to share the fruits of their innovation.<br><br>I think the quality of the Vonage service has a lot to do with your <br>DSL bandwidth. Maybe your DSL is crappy? But, I am a happy Vonage <br>customer.<br><br>Greg<br><br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>wplug mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:wplug@wplug.org" href="mailto:wplug@wplug.org">wplug@wplug.org</a><br><a href="http://www.wplug.org/mailman/listinfo/wplug" target="_blank">http://www.wplug.org/mailman/listinfo/wplug</a><br></div><br></div></div><br>__________________________________________________<br>Do You Yahoo!?<br>Tired of spam?
