Anyone have Comcast digital voice service?

If so how has it worked for you so far? Now that they have added Canada to the unlimited calling feature I am seriously considering switching over to this and am curious to hear any experiences.

I have it and am not that enthused about it. I realize that YMMV, but for me... I don't need it. My roommate is the one that requested it since he only has a pay-as-you-go phone... but at almost $50/month, when only a few people call us, it really does seem to be a waste to me. I guess that if you were someone that used the phone a lot, and did most of your calling during the day then it would be a good deal, but for me at least it is useless.

How about reliability and voice quality? Do you notice any difference between it and a standard POTS line? The cost for me will be about $38.00-$40.00 per month and even more significant if I add in what I will save on the data and TV part by doing the "triple play" and turning off my Verizon POTS line.

Comast offered this during my most recent hookup, but after looking at it I decided to retain my Vonage service as it was cheaper and works just fine.
