I agree that they don’t have much of a competitive edge, considering that cable companies have such a huge installed user base. Comcast wants $33 a month or something ridiculous like that here (not sure what the add-on cost would be given that I already have cable and internet with them), but they can easily reach their customers with the idea.

I don’t use the line either, except to send the occasional fax, but our housemate does. Otherwise, I’d go with Grand Central or just cell phones. I like having a number I never answer (goes to voicemail, which gets emailed to me as a .wav), so I can put it on forms and never get telemarketing or election calls.

My problem is that my main number that everybody knows was ported over to SunRocket. I suppose I could forward my SunRocket number to GrandCentral and then forward that number to my cell phone. That’s a lot of forwarding, though, and I’d hate to miss calls if something got clogged up somewhere.

I’m planning to get a GrandCentral number when I move in the next few months and I’ll use it as my main number. I’ll be interested to see how it stacks up against my SunRocket features although from what I’ve read and heard, GrandCentral should make me forget all about the other guys pretty quickly.

Thanks for the comment – nice site, by the way!
