07 Jan 09 Ooma Telo Will Get You Free Calls in the USA
It looks like Ooma has been waiting for CES 2009 to launch its latest VoIP phone, the Telo.
The Telo will get you free VoIP calls in the USA over the Internet. The new handset will get you that high-def DECT 6.0 voice you were looking for. There’s also a phonebook available, mobile transfer, speaker phone and various musical ringtones. The kit can be extended to six handset and there might even be support for an answering machine. Your cell phone will also be integrated in the mix as the Telo “helps combine the home phone and cell phone so you can enjoy the benefits of both without any compromises.”
We’ll be waiting for the release date and pricing but so far Telo sounds a pretty good VoIP alternative.

I purchased an ooma device about 4 months ago and love it. Voice quality is good and not having to pay for anymore monthly service more than pays for the $250 I spent up front.
I have an ooma connected to an Xlink Box, that combines my cell phone and the ooma. Together I can answered and call from any of my cordless phones in the house. I come home and place my cell phone in a charger by the garage door and it connects automatically to the Xlink box. I have the Xlink connected to the ooma system as a line line type phone and the Xlink is also connected to my home cordless phone system. When I pick up the phone, my calls go out through the ooma system by default, but I can also go out through my cell phone if I want. On incoming calls the Xlink box will send either to the homecordless system and if I am on with my cell and a call comes in on the ooma side, then I will get a beep and caller ID will show the call. I can then FLASH to get it or let it go to voice mail. It is really a great setup. Free calls on OOMA but I still have my cell if needed.
