SideDish above mentioned Vonage, so I feel like I might as well mention Broadvoice. I wanted to ditch my landline also, and my cell service was terrible. While I was looking at Vonage, I found Broadvoice and have been totally happy. I pay $10 a month for the unlimited State plan. This includes voicemail, call transferring, call forwarding, caller ID, and tons of other crazy stuff. I have my voicemail emailed to me (as a wav file), and if I move I can take the box with me - as long as there is a router to plug it into. I feel like it's too good to last, and that very soon there are going to be tons of taxes or something thrown onto it. But for now, it's great. They have unbelievable deals on international plans as well (I think $20-25 for unlimited international plans). Phone support is super friendly and helpful - email support was less helpful)
The only downside is that when my internet goes down, my only communication method to get it fixed goes down as well (this has happened twice).
I know I sound like a salesman (and the fact that this is my first post doesn't help), but I have no affiliation with them, and have nothing to gain (unless someone choses to say that I referred them - if so, feel free to message me privately) - I'm just really happy with the service.
