well, I bought the voip box last night, also bought a wireless gaming interface (or rather a WAP) so I could situate the voip box where I wanted it, instead of where my router is. So far it sounds fairly clean, havn't given up my landline yet. I'll give it a couple months. For now it's just one phone hooked up (I call it the bat phone). Anyone have any cons on vonage/voip? (aside from pricing issues - which for me won't be a problem, as it's 1/3 of my current phone service with no loss in service abilities, at least I don't think any loss).
