Default Anyone who uses VoiP

There are atleast some disadvantages of using voip , I just read :

What a great thing VoIP is! Why would anyone still be using traditional phone service? Well, for one thing, most people still don’t have a broadband connection, though that number is steadily decreasing. And there are other problems yet with VoIP.

Two of the biggest problems are power interruptions and emergency calls.

When your power goes out, you can still pick up your “normal” phone to call the power company to tell them your power just went out. This is because a traditional phone is powered by the phone line. This isn’t the case with an ip phone. If the power goes out, then there is nothing to power your internet connection or your ip phone. A workaround is to use battery backups or power generators to keep you VoIP service powered, but that is certainly more of a hassle than just picking up your phone and having it externally powered.

I think most people are have cell phones and would still be able to call the electricity company.
The reason I'm not crazy about IP phones is that when your internet goes down...that's it really. You can't do anything.
