I have not checked this, but you might want to.

We dropped cable completely, then went back for Internet only. Even pay extra for the internet only, we are still paying less. DISH costs less and offers more. We have a Vonage line which is less than the cost of the Cable phone service.
Be careful about the cheapest VOIP phones. I bought 4 Nettalk phones last year and 2 of the devices died.
