Question

Anyone use voice over internet protocol (VOIP)? I have been considering using it, but haven't made the plunge yet.

I am still dealing with the idea of why I need a cell phone and a house phone when I rarely use either. Now I can use the landline for dial-up when cable is out. However, with VOIP I could have free unlimited calls to any where in the United States and Canada for around 25 a month, and that does seem like a good idea.

If only that had been an option when my daughter was a teenager.

I am still getting used to the idea of paying for cell phone calls by the minute, plus paying for received calls.

I've never used it...but it DOES sound like a good idea.  Cell phones are tricky.  I don't ever really think about "paying by the minute" until the (rare) occasion when we go over.  THEN...they bit you hard!!

I've heard of it, and it sounded good when I heard about it.  But, I don't want to talk on any phone when I get off work (8hrs on the phone) Let us know what you decide.

I don't have a cell phone...only person I know.  Crap, my friends kids have them in grade school and I don't got one!  Never heard of VOIP, but if you feel you need it, treat yourself...I'd by shoes with the money though :)
