Last time I checked, it made no economic sense to hook up Vonage on a
telephone line. I mean, if we had cut off our phone, our DSL would go
with it. Have you checked the price of keeping the DSL but unhooking
the landline? Assuming they even allow that?

I wouldn't assume anything about cable. They really enjoy the big
bucks people pump their way every month. Price it, you may be able to
talk the installer into doing it. Just don't disconnect the telephone
until it's working!
