VOIPo = Provider X?

[stevech]

Do I read this correctly:
VoIPo: $8.25 or so per month with 12 month contract, residential, 5,000 min/mo. (avg) cap
Provider X (as above): $17 for the same.
Both with unlimited calling areas in US/Canada.
Both add about $3/mo for crud. No matter monthly or annual contract.
Yes?

I'm on the month to month price but considering going 12 mo. And switching the home's phones away from Ma Bell's pricing. Currently, VoIP is 2nd phone because first two VoIP providers' service was just too poor for us to cut the cord.

I don't (yet) care about features beyond basic CID and call waiting, but outbound CID doesn't work well. Use my own ans. mach.
