Anyway, I don’t have an OOMA, rather I have the OBI110. Still for many people this may sve you hundreds a year!

Woot is a site with a deal a day and this deal will be gone in a few hours. Yes, it will appear some random day in the future though.

If you are considering sropping expensive home service, this box will cost $ up front then only cost perhaps $5 a month or less for unlimited dialing in the U.S.

As with other VOIP services, you can also buy, configure and ship one of these things overseas so the recipient gets a U.S. dial tone.

One possible drawback to this compared to an OBI110 is that this company “could” go out of business, but these things are sold in COSTCO at times so they have been vetted pretty well. The Obi unit from the other company has provisions for GoogleVoice and SIP connections from many providers.
