Deals starts @10:00 AM PST
In my opinion, I would only consider it a good deal if the price comes closer or less than the OBi100, unless you badly need the extra features found in the OBi110.

About 1:00 p.m EST ( 10:00 PST) head over http://www.amazon.com/gp/goldbox/ and check if the price is good enough for you to pull the trigger.

When it was a lightning deal on 12/20/11, it was $43.49 (just under what the Obi100 is now). Won't surprise me if they keep roughly the same price.


The lowest price so is $40. Will see.

FYI, the new version (HardwareVersion 3.4) has no solenoid switch, so you don't heard "di da" sound when it's rebooting.


is it good or bad?

its 42.99 in GoldBox


I think I'll grab one for that price, been considering a 100 anyway so why not have the option of analog?
Thanks for the heads up OP.


Thanks OP, got one.


2 questions about 110:
1. can I connect my ATT U-Verse voice to the analog phone jack input?
2. When I dial out, how to be sure I use Obhai/Google-Voice, and not U-Verse voice?

Currently I have 100 and ATT voice(250 minutes), and I am using 2 separate phone system.
I want to consolidate them into one phone system, if possible.

#1 yes
#2 read the manual,I have the 100 model that supports two different providers and there is a key combination to switch between the lines so there is probably something equivalent for the 110

Deal is moving on. Not enough time to research.
Would someone please answer the following questions for me?
- How does this compare to ooma, price being no object?
- Does it need a modem to connect to, or can it be connected to a laptop while using hotspots?

Thanks in advance.


Thanks, Kronox. Got one 110.

obihai:
1. $42~$50.
2. No fee for all domestic call with Google voice, at least it is the case for 2012.
3. I have it for 1 week. Great voice quality.
Ooma:
1. $179~$199.
2. New subscribers pay monthly fee ($3.xx~$4.xx/mo for tax, etc.)
3. I heard voice quality is good. (My friend has nettalk and its voice quality is bad.)

I have never tried it but I think you don't need a modem to connect to laptop. It uses ETN port.


Thanks OP! In for 1. Was planning to get the 100 model anyway.

There are no monthly fees for Ooma. I've had it for the past 2-3 years.

Insert foot into mouth...

If you have an older Ooma Hub model, yes, there are currently no fees. Newer models do have fees and taxes charged. Also, I have read recently that Ooma is applying fees to accounts after three years of service even if those accounts originally did not have fees. I have not read anything official about this, but this is something to look out for.

I have a Hub and have used Ooma for a little over 1.5 years. I am quite please with it. Call quality is indistinguishable from POTS to me, and with one minor exception (a three-hour network outage last summer), reliability has been great.


I own 3 of these they work great, the voice quality with GV is as good if not better then any other VOIP service I've tried

I have older HUB and Ooma is charging me fees and taxes $3.xx a month.
That is really pissed me at first as they advertised as "free for life"

But the question is - does it worth switching from Ooma to GV?
GV is free for 2012, but after that? Any rumors on future GV pricing?

Was it free for some time then they added charges or did you pay monthly charges from the beginning?

Yeah I wouldn't switch over at this point. Google's been shedding non-profitable services like a bad coat of paint. I don't doubt that their voice service will either be going to a for-pay model or discontinued altogether in the near future.
