Getting a little dramatic there, aren't we? 

It's going from 7.95 ( 8 bucks ) a month to 11 bucks, an increase of 
72%.  That's hardly what I'd call doubling ( unless you're using that 
new math I've heard so much about ).

And it's still cheaper than my land line, when you consider that all 
incoming calls are free, as well as all 1800 numbers.  For everything 
else, there's voip-jet. 

Not that I apprecaite the raise much myself, but hey, this industry is 
still in it's infancy.  It gets too bad, someone else will take their place.
