1 edit | Re: VoIP *Skype* is the answer....
With SkypeOut/SkypeIN and efax I have absolutely no use for AT&T. (I work from my home.)
I didn't cancel, didn't have a handset connected either for about 4 months. (I mean, you gotta have a landline,right?? No, Joe, you don't. ) Didn't have the need for the local telco once. bye, bye, SBC
Oh, my cell phone is my primary contact for customers. They're using my SkypeIn number more and more since I forward to the cell when I'm on the road.

| Ok this is a "metro" number -- that magically rises from a ~$49 base rate -- to $72. Amazing (too bad my wife is afraid of change -- otherwise I'd dump 'em. -- "Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country" - and stop the NeoCons | |

| Re: VoIP Same sort of thing here, although we get charged .75 for touchtone.
Whadda racket. No wonder the mafia has largely dissapeared: the smart ones went to work for the incumbents.
Oh, and that $4.00 "fee"? Sounds like some executive's baby needs a new pair of shoes. If I was an AT&T customer, I would make some noise to regulatory officials. | |
