RE: Vonage service suffers outage

Companies like Vonage are signing up subscribers because they provide real phone service connecting you to copperline subscribers on the real phone network. That is their business model. Verizon could sell exactly the same sort of service to subscribers in California leveraging the Internet last mile in exactly the same way as Vonage. Vonage and Verizon are just phone companies, not VoIP companies.

Michael - you've been drinking way to much coffee today.
