That makes two of us... Anyways, for residential VOIP, where are we these days with E911? Are providers like Vonage and such providing reliable E911 when people call 911?

If the phone companies had actually focused on providing good, competitive service, this would have never happened. Instead, they spent money and time on figuring out ways to screw with their competition, and have legislation passed that protects them.
People (at least the ones I know) are fed up with dealing with these companies, and many people I know don't have land lines and never intend on having them again.
Let them collapse. It's good for them, us, and the capitalist in you and me. Go buy a cell phone, and have a coke.
