Any Company Selling Internet Phone Number?

I forgot where I saw it, but it was like real phone which has a local phone
number and the phone is attached to Internet directly or via a special box.
Unlike other IP phones, this service can receive calls.

I did google search, but only found pagoo, which does not provide this
serivice any more. There is also a company called ZipGlobal
http://zipglobal.com/localnumbers.html

They charge an up front fee of 10 to 30 dollars. If I am correct, there
should be a software based system exactly like this but no activation fees.
Anyone knows?

Any feedback on zipglobal is good as well, because if I can not find any, I
will use them.

You're probably thinking of Vonage.com or voicepulse.com

Both look more professional than http://zipglobal.com/localnumbers.html
But both's cheapest plans are $15 per months. I just want to use it to
receive calls mainly. That is too expensive.
It is best if there is no monthly fee, but only a per minute charge. If
zipglobal can waive the activation fee, I will try them first.

i put three companies' names together to search on google, and i got those:

Finally, I have decided to use this:
http://www.xten.com/index.php?menu=p...&smenu=compare the lite one is a
softphone, then I can configure the softphone to receive zipgloble service.
With the software, the activation charge is 10 rather than the 30. Monthly
fee is 4.95. Nice deal.

Packet8 is the best option. Check the http://www.packet8.net
