Hey,
I'm moving to a new house elsewhere in Minneapolis in a couple months,
and I thought I'd take the opportunity to cheapen my home connectivity
by going DSL-only (no voice) with Qwest and use Vonage for VOIP. But
it looks like it's really no cheaper; Qwest charges $49.99 for a bare
DSL line (which *is* pretty fast, 896K up and 1.5M down - they don't
offer the cheaper options for bare DSL) and Vonage charges $24.99 for a
call-all-you-want plan. That's a total of $74.98, which is a whopping
$3.95 cheaper than our typical phone bill. Not worth it.
At a previous PM meeting I recall a couple people (James, for instance)
saying they were saving lots of money with some package like what I've
been trying to put together, but so far I seem to be on the outside of
the price-saving clubhouse looking in. Tips?
-Ken
