Comcast may have done an excellent job of promoting their "Triple Play" program, but it is by far NOT the cheapest service out there. Even Vonage isn't the cheapest. Plus, if you go with an ISP for your phone service, you get one large headache if you change ISPs. I personally use www.lingo.com, and besides their tech support being in India, I have been overall very happy with their service, especially for $15 a month. Plus, if I change ISPs, all I have to do is plug my box into the new network. It's a shame the masses are being swallowed up by ISPs "bundle" packages.
