OT: internet phones

[beppler at comcast.net]

I have been with Vonage for a year at least. I like the service. I am using Comcast.for my ISP I have had no problems. I also have a "Virtual Phone" on my laptop thru Vonage. Last year I went on a Western Caribbean cruise and got 30 minutes of highspeed internet connection. My "Virtual Phone" worked just great. I was in the middle of the ocean and had a local Baltimore number. Called inlaws it was like being across the street!

Works for me and the price is right
