Ultratec says this is compatible with VoIP!

Unlimited U.S. calling, if you get a VoIP line.

I wish these services are available in Canada too. If necessary, I'd even PAY an hourly rate -- to help pay for an operator to do Captioned Telephone everytime I place a call.

I have used WebCapTel also while travelling in the U.S. as well as with U.S. phone lines. Much faster and better than Bell Canada Relay service when I use it with parties who can understand my voice. Technically, I could even import one of these new CapTel phones into Canada along with a U.S. Vonage phone line, and a VPN to a U.S. ISP -- and I'd look exactly like a U.S. telephone user using a U.S. Internet connection, making Captioned Telephone calls, as long as I called another U.S. phone number. (which coul also, simply be a U.S. VoIP phone number even if not in Canada).
 
Nice, so I don't have to use WebCapTel at home! This is kind of like 2-Line CapTel telephone, but it frees you from having to pay for landline as a second line if you already have VoIP.
