That's really too bad. I had hoped to port one of my numbers to them
if they ever covered my exchange. Guess I'll have to move on to
another wishful provider......

Vonage is still advertising like crazy, at least it is in this media
market (Washington, D.C. -Annapolis-Baltimore, MD). Are you in the
boonies of the Carolinas?

I had Vonage.... what a piece of crap. A large monolithic,
non-responsive, customer-no-service, disastrous nightmare.

The coastal area of NC tends to be effectively boonies because of the
population density vs. the problems of stringing cable.

I have Road Runner (which has been entirely satisfactory), but I'd be
glad to find a cheaper provider.



I feel your pain. Comcast overcharges for "high speed" internet, but the
only competition at the moment is DSL. I'm not a big fan of DSL. The
telco is advertisiing "fios," but I will be as old and gray as you,
Eisboch, and Shortpants Tom before it gets to me. Wiring...

I was thinking of dumping cable TV for satellite, but that would raise
my "high speed" internet prices because I would be unbundling it.

What's the fishing like in Albemarle and Pamlico Sounds? My *next* boat
will be trailerable, and I have a friend with a pickup that has the
balls for a towjob down there.
