[TriLUG] Slightly OT:Vonage vs. TWC Phone Service

[Jimmy Dorff]

Personally, I've had more variance with Vonage.  I currently have a 
family member going through a Vonage nightmare.  Lot's of dropped calls, 
calls don't connect, etc..  But, I also have friends with good Vonage 
service.

As far as TWC Digital phone I've had nothing but good experiences.  One 
family member I recommended to TWC phone service has a person talking on 
the phone *all the time*.  They've never had any complaints or problems, 
nor have I.
