Now this is good news,

if Vonage can pull this off it will open up a new world for replacing your home phone line with V-tone

E911

How would e-911 work if they don’t know where you have the ata at?

I am thinking it would be something in the Dashboard that you could update your address in.

I'm a little dubious about this. E911 uploads all the information to a "PSAP" so the emergency folks have your address when you call. My concern is where would Vonage connect to the 911 folks? In an emergency, I want my call to go to the local emergency folks, not someplace it has to be transferred, etc.

Got my E911 approved yesterday. It's directly linked to my address so it goes to my local 911 service providers.

I've gotten rid of my traditional land lines. Now it's Voip and my cell phones for all voice communications.

Even though I have some minor gripes with Vonage (see my other posts), overall Vonage service is outstanding - especially for a startup.

Awesome service. Vonage rules!
