Going Voip to cut cost on long distance calls

Hi guys...how many are here using voip for their long distance calls? Are you using Voip as a primary telephone service or just for back up and long distance calls?

Well I jumped the Voip bandwagon and decided to deactivate my long distance service so my landline now can call local calls or 800 number only. I signed up with Onesuite and subscribe to their voip service that will charge me $2.95 a month for getting a phone number with incoming calls included. Outgoing calls will be charge as pay as you use or pay as go as most people call it.

Using a voip service has led me into thinking that will save me a bunch for frequent callers like me because the rate difference is huge. At the same time, when I travel I can always make phone calls without having to worry about buying a phone card or getting billed by my hotel for long distance calls. Well I just need to carry my HP notebook which I do most of the time with me and find a wifi hotspot or connect to a hotel internet connection.

Onesuite by the way is a prepaid phone card and not a voip provider per se, they only have voip feature that you can use.

There's also one product I am looking that will lead me to cut my land line altogether. That product is called MagicJack. I still need to study their services very carefully before I decide if I am going voip all the way or stick with my land line at the moment.

What do you guys think?
