There is also sutff like Vonage and the other voice over IP
"appliances" you attach to your broadband connection for phone
service, however VONAGE over something like DirecWay satellite would
be a good emergency backup, as long as you could provide your own
power.



I hope this was suppose to be a joke, cause it is funny as hell trying to
imagine VOIP going on through a DirecWay.
