Default Re: Voip/Skype phones

Since my office phone bill is on average $2800 month I looked into this very closely and have come to the conclusion that I should wait untill the technology gets much better. This is what I have found: If you have DSL it works much better than with cable, many dropped calls and in many circumstances your calls never even make it through, conversaions are often "echoey". The plusses are inexpensive phone bills, tons of options for free and with Vonage you can transfer calls and work almost all of the options right from your computer. The bottom line is if you can withstand the negatives then you should not think twice about getting it, compared to local phone service it willsave you a lot of money if you call long distance frequently. For my business however it is not yet an option I can take.
