Anyone using FoIP service? I have Verizon DSL (no other choice) and was looking at the FoIP service (for Verizon). Looked at a few reviews on CNET, but didn't see any newer reviews.
I thought it might save a little $$$$. By the time I pay for satellite TV, cell phone, landline phone, internet......man...it's startin to hurt.:black:

Assuming you mean Fax Over IP, you may wish to consider an alternative: fax over email. There are a wide variety of web based services that for a small fee per month will provide you with a fixed fax number and email you anything they receive at that number. You can also email a wide variety of document formats to them (.pdf, .doc, etc) and they will fax them to any destination number you wish.

Google "web fax" to find TONS of such providers. I personally have used www.efax.com and found it quite effective, but there are many, many more out there.

I was looking at both fax and voice, but after reading on several sites, I think I'll stay with what I've got for awhile. Maybe the technology will be better in a year or two.
