May 24--SERVICE FOR INTERNET PHONE CALLS IS A BREAKTHROUGH: AT&T's new CallVantage service for making unlimited phone calls through the Internet is nothing less than a breakthrough.
CallVantage is priced lower than similar all-you-can-eat packages from local phone companies such as SBC and Verizon, yet offers exciting new features and appears -- at least in my week-long test at home -- to be reliable.
What has been a trickle of consumers shifting from regular home phone lines to voice-over-the-Internet, or VoIP, should quickly become a flood as people begin to recognize the superiority of CallVantage and competing VoIP services.
AT&T is currently rolling out CallVantage (www.callvantage.com) nationwide. The service launched in late March, arrived in most of the Bay Area in mid-April and became available in Santa Cruz County last week.
For $39.99 a month, CallVantage provides unlimited local and long distance calling throughout the United States; there's a discount to $19.99 a month for the first six months, available until May 31.
