Emails to freephonline to help port my number went unanswered and as far as I could tell they have no phone number which is a tad ironic :)<br>

No complaints with <a href="http://voip.ms" target="_blank">voip.ms</a>. Has been working great for months now.<br>

It is excellent.<br>
I have saved over $1200 over the past two years by getting rid of my<br>
Bell Canada phone. No regrets ever.<br>
It is one of the best things I have invested my money in. It's about<br>
$100 for the ATA device and purchasing the SIP.<br>
I have two SIP lines one number in KW and a BC number that my<br>
relatives out there can use to call us here in KW for free.<br>

I've stumbled across <a href="http://freephoneline.ca" target="_blank">freephoneline.ca</a> again. I hear it mentioned every now and again.<br>
<br>
Anyone have any comments or experiences?<br>

Anybody have a favourite free sip registrar?<br>
<br>
I'm thinking of the usefulness of such for our homeless guests at OOTC -<br>
be it via Ekiga / laptop, or Android / CSipSimple, particularly when<br>
combined with sipbroker.<br>
<br>
[Granted, such won't let them call PSTN numbers. But they would become<br>
reachable, themselves.]<br>
<br>
[And that for an initial $25 at <a href="http://voip.ms" target="_blank">voip.ms</a> they would be able to call PSTN<br>
numbers. DISA even. Assuming they had a credit card, which very few do.]<br>
<br>
I'm guessing they wouldn't be able to do this on a library computer,<br>
even with an app on a USB key. Anyone know? Starbucks? Working Centre?<br>
Elsewhere?<br>
<br>
Is this an area the Working Centre makes available / teaches/knowledge<br>
transfers?<br>
