since I'm moving all my services anyway due to the new house, we're switching over to the digital phone service from Time Warner (now Comcast). We'll see how that goes...
As for cell service, we're on Sprint, and that's a great network everywhere in Shreveport, except in my house, and the grocery store. It's just not good enough to take over for all phone service at this point. |

Anyone using Vonage ?
not even sure if I spelled that right ? Vonage ? But was wondering if anyone was using that for their phone service AND using a Blanchard Cable modem service with it ?

i have bell hell here fiance won't let me drop the house line. I'm sure we will eventually go to IP phones here he does this for a living it's to find the time to install at home. I have 4 ip phones but not using them yet.
I use my cell phone for most calls only give the people that are not important the home phone. I pay my bills on time really I just don't give them my cell phone only given to family and friends since it cuts into my minutes |

I've heard the press calling this "cutting the cord". I would not want to give up my landline for a cell phone only, however if I had Vonage and a cell phone, then why not? If by Internet goes out, or if the cell phone glitches, then I have a backup. There is little chance of both cell phone and broadband (dsl or cable) going out at the same time.

I don't really have a cell phone. However, I'm a DSL nut, so I'll never give up my phone line even if I did have a cell phone.
