//quote: Because anybody with a clue is using VoIP by this point,
Anybody without monitored home alarm systems, you mean. I've tried two VOIP providers who both advertise E911 service, and they're both incompatible with two different alarm monitoring services. Both services work fine with POTS, and are far more valuable to my family than saving $25/mo +- after facoring in everyone's fees and taxes and whatnot.
So, I guess VOIP isn't quite for everyone. And some of us have splendid reasons. And clues.
Oh yeah, that was funny. Snort-cola-out-the-node funny.
