In my case, Vonage + Broadband = $64 a month. For the same voice
features I was paying Verizon $87 a month. So a nominal savings of $23
dollars is there but you have to remember that I use the broadband
connection for more than just my phone service. Vonage uses 90Kbits of
my 4Mbps down and 384Kbps up. So in reality it's actually a much
greater savings.
