Vonage has a big marketing presence, but they have one of the most expensive VOIP services around.
Does not the fact that Vonage works independent of the computer, and on the already existing home phones,
give it an advantage? With BroadVoice I have to buy a headset or USB phone and plug it into my
computer, and I cannot be in the kitchen while talking. But if I go with BroadVoice, what phone
works well with my iBook? By the way, thanks for the help with all my stupid questions; I really
appreciate it.
