Digital Phones vs Land Lines

Digital Phones are a easy way to say Voip Phones. Digital phones are primarily Internet usage phones and as a result of using the Internet for free you are not charged any usage fees like your standard phone.

This article provides information about digital phones vs standard line phone systems and how the use of each is changing ever so slowly. Personally I have been using a digital phone for my home office phone from comcast for the last 3 years and find it wonderful. Why?

I can make phone calls to people across the country and not have to pay extra for it. I have switched my home phone over to a digital video phone from ACN about 6 months ago and find that experience just as fascinating due to the ability to call around the country for free but if they have a video phone I can see them face to face. There are not very many instances of that but I would guess I will be on my second or third version before it gets to be common place.Please read the article and at the end I will provide another comment.

Video Phone Versus Standard Phone
By Alan Thomas Collins

Let me start off by saying that in the world today nearly 90% of homes and businesses use a standard phone line system and most would be reluctant to change because it is simply easier to stay status quo.

Let me also put it another way; Why would you change if there were no benefits?Good point, but how many benefits is it going to take before YOU change? I don’t know about you but when mobile phones came to the world, how many of you said that you would wait to see if it was worth all the hype and the same goes for the internet. Well let me tell you the age of telecommunication is changing and changing very quickly.

No longer are you tied to the large monopolies that used to control what you did, no longer are you told that you must use their network and pay their demands. Why do these companies spend huge amounts on advertising? It’s easy because they make millions out of us by encouraging us to pay for every call we make from our home and business phones.

VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) has been around for a while now and certain companies have had the say on what has happened in this arena and they have paved the way that we now think and use this technology, but they have only been able to do it through a video cam on your computer and sometimes the streaming is not what you call brilliant. Sure it is acceptable because you pay less.

Well the era of VoIP has changed and changed for the better because a company has positioned themselves to allow most homes and businesses to take advantage of this technology via a standard looking phone with the main change and that being a video screen and camera using better technology to make this device user friendly.

No longer will we have to have a land line and pay for the rental of this facility and best of all the overall cost will be a lot less than you are paying for this at present. Most standard phones have all the features that we have all become used to such as message bank, caller ID, last number redial and many more.


Well in a lot of occasions you have had to pay for some of these features. No more, as these features plus many others are all standard on the video phones and they are all included at no cost.

I know lots of people that are already using this product and they are experiencing moments that have normally been taken away from them because of one reason or another. Imagine if you will:

  • A soldier overseas being able to see and speak with his/her spouse and kids
  • A business man on the run being able to say goodnight and see his kids off to bed while he is away
  • A grandparent overseas being able to see their grandchildren grow up
  • A hearing impaired person being able to use sign language to another colleague
  • An international business being able to have 3 way conference calls.
  • I see that within five years most homes and businesses will have this video phone and they will be experiencing what a lot are already experiencing and wonder how would they do without it.
