Those little generators they have to give you cable service will not last nearly as long as the ones in a Central Office. Oh I'm going to laugh at so many people God-forbid there is a nationwide emergency.

If there is a national emergency, I will guarantee two things...people will be asked to stay off the phone, and you'll get lots of "All circuits are busy" because to one listened!
So go ahead and laugh. You won't be doing it over a land line.

The last laugh will be on you. It's the way telephone service is going and nothing will stop it. Along the way there will be hic-ups like with EVER single other technological advance and what will really be funny is how you will come along for the ride. We won't see it, we don't know you but even you will switch. |

But how many times have we seen "multi-hour" outages with VOIP providers like Vonage already? So when you're with no phone service for 5 hours the LAUGH WILL BE ON YOU. Go ahead, keep getting sucked into this so called "new and great technology". I never said I wasn't willing to try, but I won't drop my landline for it. The only thing your phone line is made out of is copper and relies on far less electricity than VOIP. I highly doubt I'd want a phone service that relies on my broadband too, something about that makes me very uneasy.
