Was talking about this at the office. Personally I dont see the point in it unless you have a family. ---

My wife wants one for the house. Vonage for $25 a month. I hardly use it since I’m always on my cell, but she uses it a lot and most people call her at the house. ---

Yes. Verizon has a plan for $9.60 a month plus 9 cents per outgoing call. Having one allows me to save $10 a month on my satellite bill for having them hooked up to the phone line, and $5 on my DSL, so having it really saves me money. It actually comes in handy more than i expected, because I hate giving out my cell # to places like banks and applying for jobs. ---

Yes, Vonage. For what I’d have to pay in an additional minutes plan for our cells I more than make up for with the $30/month Vonage account. And like Joe, I’d be stuck with an extra $10 a month from Dish Network for not having a land line for the receivers to dial out on if I didn’t have one. Plus, my house isn’t a mansion or anything, but having to run all over looking for my cell when someone calls is a pain. I’ve got my Vonage router running every phone jack in my house, so answering a ringing phone is never more than walking across a room. ---

[quote=“redrum”"] …unless you have a family. [/quote] which is why we have a home phone. Absolute minimum Verizon plan (~$9/mo). We might make/rec 10 calls /mo from landline. ---
