[chbot] OT: VOIP phone services and hardware

[Richard Jones]

I'm caught up in earthquake repair house moves and I'm beginning to realise
that life could have been a lot simpler and cheaper if my landline phone
service was delivered using voip as this could seamlessly track with my new
broadband connection location and save a lot of cash over the months. We've
not reached the point where we don't want a fixed line phone.

If I sign up with 2talk prepay $0/month and modest call charges, all I need
to do is buy a cisco SPA112 for about $80 delivered connect up my old
analogue phones and I will get a phone service that is simple enough for
visitors to use for quite a modest cost. With a little effort I can
probably transfer calls to my mobile using a sip/voip app.

Anyone have experience of this approach? Recommended alternatives?
