VOIP Technology Coming to A Phone Near You

In the last couple of years, Voice Over Internet Technology (VOIP) has spread like wildfire. VOIP is a great technology that allows a person with a broad band connection to call a person any where in the country and through out the world. Not only is the sound quality indistinguishable from a land line phone, the price is extremely cheap.

Most VOIP services either charge a monthly fee or are free. Some services actually charge nothing to call someone half way around the world. Many services that provide customer service and lots of features do charge for their services, usually less than $30 a month for unlimited calling. The best part is that you can use your regular phone.

Most people that call from a computer over the internet still can great reception and low prices but using their land line phone is not an option. However there are headsets that include headphones and a microphone as well as USB phones that look and feel like traditional land line phones. Some USB phones come in business phone models as well as cordless hand sets as well.

If you have been looking for a way to save on your phone bill and have great service as well, then you should look into VOIP technology. It really is a great way to call.
